@georgecurtiss Listen the real reason for early stage reject is personal. “Too early” is an excuse. Do you wanna a feedback on your personality? Like real?

“You’re too early for us” Says the investor who’s job it is to invest in early stage companies

@runaway_vol You don’t say it’s not easy

double negation has never not been difficult to understand

@jdegoes Thanks, exactly my thoughts

The GOOD path: 1. Make a model smart enough to hack 2. Release and let everyone get hacked 3. Fix vulnerabilities until unhackable The LIKELY path: 1. Make a model smart enough to hack 2. Ban or cripple the model so it can't hack 3. Get hacked by China w/uncrippled models

@yacineMTB @jsuarez I don’t underage you guys. I do miracles with LLMs. Also, what could be more boring and zero-dopamine than typing code and tests manually, checking logs, and all this stuff? It could be fun if you are like 17 and just discovered programming.

@jsuarez Same..

I can relate to this. These LLMs are really great at speeding up prototyping but they are so awfully bad at programming that it sucks out all of the joy..

@yashhq_22 You need to be a buyer once who thought that you better build something in-house instead of buying. If you are not in this position, meet somebody who is.

“build something people want” everyone says this. nobody talks about how to figure out what people want.

@slimjimmy I heard you need to eyeball the lisp code for 10,000 hours and all those brackets disappear visually

lisp programmers: lisp is the most beautiful language of all time also lisp programmers:

@Hal_Wayland @ThePrimeagen Probably. But I’ve been in the industry for 17 years, and everybody around me kind of sucks. It’s not what the Internet tells you.

@denbvk @ThePrimeagen Seems like you need to find more creative and productive friends then. The friends you have now are clearly not capable to do anything unless it's playing with toys - what could be easier than giving a vague description of some project to an LLM and watch it produce something?

All the devs whining about fable being banned need to go hit the gym and stfu

@Hal_Wayland @ThePrimeagen I’ve seen friends building some pretty useless pet projects with LLMs. Before, they did not build anything. I guess this is progress.

Good question. I've seen a lot of genuinely impressive things being build over the years without the LLMs. Those people are still making impressive things and they are usually still not using the LLMs, even now. On the other hand, I can't think of a single impressive useful project someone made with heavy use of LLMs. I might be forgetting something but I can't think of anything. Personally, I actually do use them for work. I use DeepSeek V4 Flash or something that's similarly fast, I check all the output and confirm I would write that, the usual "use the LLM as a faster way to write code" kind of approach. I'm building internal tooling using web dev tools for EV charger support, just for context. Nothing "impressive" either though.

@ChShersh @enjojoyy Claude Cloud

@enjojoyy Claude Code for weather: Cloud Code

why do people like asking me here what weather is in whatever city i'm in guys i'm not claude code for weather

@ChShersh @wreckmyshit C++ makes string people. Strong people make great times

@wreckmyshit We need more strong C++ people x.com/ChShersh/statu…

@ChShersh If the c++ guy is saying it it must be true;

@Hal_Wayland @ThePrimeagen Have you seen lots of people producing anything useful without it? I mean outside of a bunch of famous projects. Like your friend suddenly building something truly amazing outside of their work?

@ThePrimeagen And I still haven't seen anyone really produce anything useful with any of it.

@jackprice What is really hard is stop discussing this nonsense and build something useful

What’s harder to do today: Build the thing or market the thing?

@DanBochman Dude there is a “plan” mode in Claude

Typical coding day with Claude (Opus 4.8) - explain to Claude the task (5 minutes) - Claude implements task (10 minutes) me: "Why is this necessary?" Claude: "You're right to push back! I over-engineered this!" - Repeat x87 times (13 hours)

@sflorimm They certainly can. The other question if they would.

can one person really build the next unicorn with AI?

@renegadegenesis Are you selling tokens?

Stop messing around. Start building. Ship your app. Market it. Start today.

@schteppe Having QA to write tests is anti-pattern. QA has to force everybody else to lift their quality bar.

QA is on vacation. As a result, devs write more automated tests than ever before, to make sure their code works… Is having a QA team an antipattern?

@therealdanvega Why wasn’t it a problem before? On average, 50% of developers could produce even better code.

As a developer you have to ask yourself "If anyone can produce code what am I going to do that will separate me from everyone else?" I have some thoughts on this but would love to hear yours? 👇🏻

@TheGeorgePu Aren’t they all loop architects now?

What happened to the 2023 job called Prompt Engineer?

@yacineMTB Just throw your computer out of the window, and there will be no supply chain attacks anymore. Easy.

avoid supply chain attacks with the following trick: do not install unnecessary software dependencies

@yacineMTB No. Just don’t use platforms with poor dependency discipline.

stop using shitty dependencies that you don't need
