@FPupusas @ThePrimeagen the craft has only really changed for people who should never have been developers in the first place.

@ThePrimeagen You were literally raging against how bad inline autocomplete was for your coding skills for months. Sounds to me more like you are battling with the fact your craft is changing and you don't like how.

i am using supermaven again and i have something to say about this whole AI thing. I think as a group (swe) we rushed so fast into Agents when inline autocomplete + actual skills is crazy. A good autocomplete that is fast like supermaven actually makes marked proficiency gains, while saving me from cognitive debt that comes from agents. With agents you reach a point where you must fully rely on their output and your grip on the codebase slips. Its insane how good cursor Tab is. Seriously, I think we had something that genuinely makes improvement to ones code ability (if you have it). Truly acts as a multiplier, and we left it in the dust because it is not sexy. hurts me on the inside.

@alphackles where is this? central world?

have you ever been addicted to a restaurant that's fucking 9km away

@sm1_smwhere @asaio87 @221Bytes came here to say this.

@asaio87 @221Bytes This just means you don't understand AI. No models are being trained on new content from today, it's all synthetic data generated on the fly, and RL from user sessions.

The sad thing about AI-generated code is that it can only get worse from here, not better.

@MainMeowMix @ClearwaterCoder @imadr_ also "you need to know what you're doing" literally means what exactly? if I provide a framework and guidance for a model to solve a problem and it solves it, does that mean I knew what I was doing? that applies to literally every problem solved ever by anything

@VibeCoder27 @ClearwaterCoder @imadr_ I'm not sure why you have both those in quotes like they are things I said verbatim lmao. I stand by everything I mentioned in this thread. If you want to be productive with these tools in domains the tools don't have training data for, you need to know what you're doing.

After a week of making a compiler using gpt-5.3-codex, extra high reasoning, then trying gpt-5.4 I can confidently say vibe coders do not have a single clue how programming really works, and/or they're not making anything remotely complicated

@MainMeowMix @ClearwaterCoder @imadr_ do you really not see how you have shifted the goal posts 3 times now? we have gone from from, > basically impossible > possible with guidance > if you want to be productive Those are three different arguments.

@MainMeowMix @ClearwaterCoder @imadr_ "Needs human guidance" does not mean "cannot solve genuinely new problems." Plenty of tools require structure from a competent user. That does not prove they are incapable of novel problem-solving.

@VibeCoder27 @ClearwaterCoder @imadr_ If you are building a genuinely new product or domain, you need someone who knows what they are doing to even break it into tasks for an LLM. You're not going to get an LLM to build like, interstellar navigation tech or something unless you are there to guide it along.

@MainMeowMix @ClearwaterCoder @imadr_ They still do best in domains where there’s lots of prior data, but on current benchmarks, LLMs can solve genuinely new tasks so I wouldn't say basically impossible just harder.

@ClearwaterCoder @imadr_ To be fair, building something outside the training data with an LLM is basically impossible if you don't already know what you're doing.

@DarayuthH @IndieSamMaker @jackfriks if you young and have nobody depending on you go for it :)

@VibeCoder27 @IndieSamMaker @jackfriks I like being wild

what would you rather a) a solo business that makes $1500 a day b) 1 million dollars

Met a young founder Could only work on his startup part time because of college Drop out, I told him Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg did the same thing Turns out, he actually sucks at running a company I declined to invest in his startup It went under Now he has no company and isn’t in school I blocked him No need to surround myself with losers

@samreenn2525 yes you just founded something useless or invisible

Can I call myself a founder with $0 MRR?

@IndieSamMaker @DarayuthH @jackfriks need to diversify into real estate and commodities also, 100% equities without hedging is wild.

@DarayuthH @jackfriks What's your plan if the market crashes ? How do you live during those years ?

Unsustainable. Expect massive price increases soon.

@TechByTaraa BetterAuth

If you're building a SaaS today, which auth would you choose? 1. Clerk 2. Auth0 3. Supabase Auth 4. Firebase Auth 5. NextAuth (Auth.js) 6. Custom Auth

@averycode vibin this now

$1 million startup idea: linkedin for ai agents

anyone hiring a vibecoder? i vibe very well

@haydendevs vibin on llama

you have to be incredibly negligent to leave endpoints open like this. codex or claude wouldn't even do this unless you forced it to.

@meekrose @BRICSinfo ok calm down chatGPT

@BRICSinfo This isn’t a minor airspace violation it’s a full on escalation… Qatar defending its skies against Iranian aircraft isn’t just strategy, it’s a message: sovereign borders mean something, and when those borders are crossed with weapons, the response is force…

JUST IN: 🇶🇦🇮🇷 Qatar shoots down two Iranian jets that entered its airspace.

@neuralamp4ever @johnrushx AI already has better reading comprehension than you apparently

@johnrushx "I’ll bet my one kidney ai beats the average humans in the most embarrassing" If you want to prove your point, then try to build a Standard Compliant optimizing C++ Compiler using AI. You can find the C++ standard document draft online for free. Show us the money.

Every coder saying “ai generated code is low quality slop…” Have you actually tried comparing an average(!) human written code with an average opus4.6 generated code? I’ll bet my one kidney ai beats the average humans in the most embarrassing ways

@LewisCTech @vagueslop Where is the complexity here? It's just a static blob of text with links?

@vagueslop what is a scalable ui? outdata.net is by far my proudest ui accomplishment.

Why do frontend devs put all their logic in "components"? I came up in the winform desktop all days and knew back then, as juniors, that it was an anti pattern to couple business logic and UI so tightly. How does frontend still not have a concept of architecture?
