they now send me hallucinated stuff - made up products which don't exist and tracking links which are wrong. That's completely bonkers. Tried to contact them about it but it's all AI responses.😶

A company I work with now has switched to using AI instead of people not only for answering mails but also doing productive work apparently. It's easy to tell by the AI style responses ("sure thing!", "you are totally right!") - I could live with those. The problem is that

Good news: RocketCake 7.2 just released - and it now is also available as native Linux app! (beta for now - please let me know any feedback!) Also: support for newest Galaxy & iPhone devices, modernized UI, improved components and more! Get it here: ambiera.com/rocketcake/

Interesting side effect of developing a native Linux app is that it will look and behave different depending on the desktop environment your Linux distribution is using. For all I tested it with, I like Cinnamon on Linux Mint the best so far:

I was able to make RocketCake run natively on Linux. Still a bit of work necessary, but it works. Looks like we get a new website builder to Linux in the near future. #WebDevelopment #linux

Just witnessed a person having lost access to his webserver, which still served his website. He needed the .html files and asked for help. Lo and behold, what was the most upvoted solution to this problem? "Make a screenshot of your website and ask an AI to recreate it" 😶

Rumors say Windows 12 will be subscription based and "AI focused". If true then I'll switch to Linux instantly - and I guess I'm not the only one.

With AI, I'm about as fast as without 🤷: Currently writing a C++ app and compared the speed, on average for small tasks: Without AI manually: 10 min With AI: 11 min [prompt (2 min) - agent runs (3 min) - review code (2 min) - let it fix the bugs, then I clean up (4-6 min)]

3 Installs / downloads and 3 account creations needed. Wondering why Steam is successful and MS Store isnt. 🙄

The ridiculous amount of steps to buy and play Minecraft: • create Microsoft account • buy game in Windows store • download mincecraft launcher • create xbox account • update minecraft launcher • create minecraft profile • download and install minecraft

Just released the website builder RocketCake in version 7.1 with multiple HTML file import, improved CSS code generation and lots of improvements for macOS Tahoe. That last one was quite some work where I prefer not to speak more about (debugging trauma) 😁

Windows updates which broke my app in 20 years: 1 MacOs updates which broke my app: Nearly every. Single. One.

What happens internally in a browser when it takes a text from some HTML code to show it on the screen is insane. Even whitespace is surprisingly complex. Re-Implementing these algorithms is quite an eye opener.

What year is this

Vibe coding is getting out of hand: In this thread some clueless dev is vibe coding a credit card payment processing system and discards all points by redditors telling him to stop right now. Read the horror yourself here: reddit.com/r/webdev/comme…

@fonsecord Looked into it and it would be possible - but it would take about 5 months of development and it likely wouldn't make back the investment unfortunately :/

@Ambiera Good Job. Any opportunity to get a RocketCake Linux version?

RocketCake 6.3 just released: Improved HTML / CSS / JavaScript code generation, swipe support for slideshows and carousels, right side option for side bar menu, and a lot more. Get it here: ambiera.com/rocketcake/ #webdev #webdesign
