And yet they can't fix the janky bugs when you scroll or show/hide chain of though, commands executed, configuring plug-ins from the options menu etc.
How would it make it much better? Can you give me a nuanced argument and one that isn't nuanced so I can agree with you?
He's telling that some guys are about to create a theory of everything and open Pandora's box, while some of us are still grunt workers delivering 2ndary value to advance society
As a kid I loved waiting the computer to do this and send that "nuclear" missile that blew pretty much everything
Gets my work done... I know there are better tools but at the end of the day I get my paycheck
I guess out in the wild vibe coders will tell you code review is replaced by "prompt review"
Can't wait for OpenAI to publish a breakthrough in biochem...
The ball is on their court
Ya'll overestimate how the average programmer uses LLMs and tools and underestimate how a good programmer uses them.
Nothing is set in stone other than the fact the way software engineerind is done.
Been using FF since they announced this. The only disadvantage I've found is that I think it consumes more memory compared against chromium based browsers.
Hoping my browser gets some love in the near future
...and this is only his professional life ;)
Average Joe here - The problem is when your boss/PM is also an average Joe that bangs a 200 page doc and he doesn't even care to review properly leaving lots of gaps, redundant details and doesn't even know the rationale behind the decisions in the document.
Bottom line: there is no true ownership in the upper level so why should I take ownership in a product based on garbage produced documentation specs?

The company that made me unsubscribe from Evernote after 8 years because it got slow, buggy and skyrocketed their prices.
Good riddance, now I am using Obsidian + an LLM and works way better.
Just stop arguing with your family or friends about politics and religion, not worth it.
Lately I think I only argue when I know I will get something about it...
This reminds me of the first time I was shown this in college.
I loved this method so much that in my first formal logic test I tried to solve all of the problems via this method. It was a fun experience lol
Welcome to the slot machines!
Don't you forget about India and Latinamerica... No way I see companies paying that much for outsourced employees
Tbh I don't care if vibe coding or generated art is produced as I think general public will eventually accept them or decide when it's worth to use/consume those kind of products.
What I really hate is agentic customer support, sales etc. - when you have to use them you realize how stupid the workflows, tool call, MCP, and all that garbage that is glued is just to reduce costs instead of churn.
PS: Ironically I'm working on coding an "agentic platform" for the product suite and their backend services. I simply don't feel confident about the product I'm building but I guess it is paying my bills for the moment
He literally explained why within the first paragraphs, because a stock LLM can answer a different price of the shop for a given repair
I'm just using Copilot CLI for mindless stuff and set it to the premium models to meet the quota, as long as they can't see the prompts I think I should be fine
+1 searching anything non-business related is so good compared to the bloated AI + ads Google serves nowadays
On my side I have used Claude code, tbh for solo projects it's good enough if you already know what you need to do.
Answering your questions:
On my job we've been spoon fed to use GH copilot everywhere we can. It's been configured to review PRs, make corrections etc. - I'd say it's good enough but from time to time it will raise false positives on issues. I'd say it works fine but you still need to keep an eye on generated BS.
I've seen coworkers show me amazing stuff done with agentic coding and I've seen coworkers open up slop PRs with bunch of garbage generated code which is kind of annoying, but I'll let it slide...
Stack - .NET, Angular, SQL Server and ofc hosted in Azure.
Team is composed of about 100 engineers (devs, QA, devops etc.) and from what I can see there are no Juniors, which is sad to see if you ask me
I was using it the same way you just described but for C# and Angular and you're spot on. It feels amazing not having to memorize APIs and just let the AI even do code coverage near to 100%, however at some point I began noticing 2 things:
- When tests didn't work I had to check what was going on and the LLMs do cheat a lot with Volkswagen tests, so that began to make me skeptic even of what is being written by the agents
- When things were broken, spaghetti and awful code tends to be written in an obnoxius way it's beyond repairable and made me wish I had done it from scratch.
Thankfully I just tried using agents for tests and not for the actual code, but it makes me think a lot if "vibe coding" really produces quality work.
Agree, I'm not the kind of guy that has 100 tabs open (10 at the time I'm typing this), but when I came back 2 years ago I noticed that it isn't as snappy and fast as it used to be 15 years ago before I switched to Chrome.
For BTC and high tech surveillance
Absolutely right, only AAA games get to showcase the true power of GPUs.
For cheaper guys like me, I'll just give my son indie and low graphic games which he enjoys
You just described my experience with MOBA games like League of Legends and Dota. Around 15 years ago there were only about 50-60 playable characters. Nowadays there are more than 100 and more items and customizations.
As for shooters this is the same. Too many weapons classes and subclasses, maps, game modes eventually divide and distract the playerbase from the core essence of the game.
I think this is one of the reasons that you still see Counter Strike still around.
Agree, Airbnb blows in crowded areas but it's nice in small towns
I began doing AngularJS and have been doing Angular 2 for a while, as another commenter said: there are jobs still out there.
In my experience I get more Angular & Vue offers than C# and React. For what is worth I'm convinced that across the industry React jobs wages are lower. Who knows, I could be closed in my own bubble but am pretty sure the pool of react devs is bigger and this might be the reason.
