"Most recommended" can stay as it is

and then a new "Top all-time" should be a weighted sum of recommendations plus mentions with recommendations getting a higher weight (obviously) … l33t c0d1ng sk1llz for deducting negative mentions (as in "awful book", "do not recommend" etc)!

i stand by what i said here down-votes be damned; judging by our brief interaction and your telling anecdote you come across as a smug disagreeable know-it-all and in their position i wouldn't have hired you -- there is after all the option to hire someone who both knows their stuff and doesn't come across the way you do

Oh Revolut's down are they? Let me tell you about an interview I did with them. Blah blah blah. Yeah, no thanks.

who or what is mrkeen?

There have been 34 Twitter/X link submissions in the past day, ~that's 12,000 submissions a year.

If your reason is that you have to be logged in to use it properly then I'd nearly agree with you. If it's for any other reason, how about no?

However, I've pointed Grok 4.6 at a fairly complex codebase and asked it to review/audit it for issues and it's come back with a whole laundry list of issues. I've passed that list to Kimi and Claude and they both were like "a couple of good catches but some of those are not issues at all". Grok 4.6 is noticeably weaker that Claude Fable 5, Claude Opus 5, Claude Opus 4.8, Kimi K3, GLM 5.3, … your suggestion to use Grok 4.6 instead of a recent Claude doesn't pass empirical scrutiny.

> There are no other models out there for coding.

that wasn't your claim.

your claim was:

> There are so many other better models right now.

wrt coding that is untrue.

i've been thinking about this upending process a bit (as i'm sure we all have) and the nearest historical parallel to the backlash against AI slop is the arts & crafts movement's rejection of mechanised production, from Wikipedia “Initiated in reaction against the perceived impoverishment of the decorative arts and the conditions in which they were produced” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arts_and_Crafts_movement

i like to think of Frege and the Begriffschrift like this

Boole: logic + algebra = algebraic logic

Frege: logic + functions = predicate logic

ergo, if Boole is rightly deified then so should Frege regardless of minor infelicities (which prompted type theory anyhow) -- again, apologies if this is totally misleading

Maybe I'm too much of a CLI guy (always preferred Vim & co. to Rubymine/VS Code/etc)
