All that stuff would take me about 5 minutes without AI. Those are things with 10,000 examples all over the web. AI is good at distilling the known solutions. But anything even slightly out of the ordinary, it fails miserably. I'd much rather write that code myself instead of spend an hour convincing an AI to do it for me.

>All that stuff would take me about 5 minutes without AI.

No, it wouldn't. Merely finding the examples and deps would take over an hour.

Back when, we'd just go write a blog post or SO answer so the next person wouldn't suffer as much.

Thank god THOSE days are over and everyone just lets everyone else suffer alone now

There is absolutely no way. Those tasks take 5 mins to do. Itd be done by the time you read the documentation for elvenlabs

Im curious though, what do you consider slightly out of the ordinary that it fails to do?

I haven't read wikipedia in a long time so I can't answer your question, I am just pointing out that just saying "the facts are correct" is not enough to say there is no bias on wikipedia

I ran thousands of prompts by now and at most the only issue I had is it deleting code it wrote, which has been easy to recover

Yeah I don't know why they didn't figure to have something in between. I find it completely unusable without the flag.

Even a --permit-reads would help a lot

I have the same experience as you and joegibbs.

I imagine it's really hard to find an adequate in-between that works in general. (Edit: but it also feels like a CYA thing.)

Authentication has gotten really annoying on the web. I don't even care if my data gets stolen for most sites. Like HN is just username and pass and I love that. I don't care if someone hacks my HN account. What are they going to do? Get all my public comments? I prefer that ease of use versus having had to 2FA every time for years.

It's last year's. I read a few weeks ago that they ditched the "Pro Premium" madness naming scheme and they're back to just XPS <size>.

They haven't retired or replaced most of the models under the old naming scheme, and in many cases they're still manufacturing those models.

There was a guy here plugging his slack alternative that was heavily AI based and people here loved it. I don't remember the name unfortunately

Same there is a few things I never learned and don't care to learn and ultimately it has no greater value to learn.

Like do I really get anything out of learning another framework or how some particular library does something?

If you're going to deploy what you make with them to production without accidentally blowing your feet off, 100%, be they RegExp or useEffect(), if you can't even tell which way the gun is pointing how are you supposed to know which way the LLM has oriented it?

Picking useEffect() as my second example because it took down CloudFlare, and if you see one with a tell-tale LLM comment attached to it in a PR from your coworkers who are now _never_ going to learn how it works, you can almost be certain it's either unnecessary or buggy.

For things Im working on seriously for my work, for sure, I spend time understanding them, and LLMs help with that. I suppose, also having experience Im already prone to asking questions about things I have a suspicion can go wrong

But there is also a ton of times something isnt at all important to me and I dont want to waste 3 hours on

I dont get the people with 10+ tabs open drives me crazy, how do you even know whats what?

Just bookmark shit you want to keep!

lol
