This is nearly the exact project that I have been working on! Exactly the same reasons :) Congrats on finishing up. I need to go back on this asap.

I understand the complaint about the bulk of the device shown, however they are mostly missing out the fact that the reason of the architecture is in the classical VR, bulk is carried on the head, pressing weight on the neck. Here body is free of any extra weight. Device’s bulk is of no concern.

Is it me or GPT-6 Instant food answer gives the vibe to check the hell out immediately? It's like the it will start to explain a sunny Sunday afternoon from 20 years ago for 5 full pages.

Computers can code for you, but it's not a reason to forget about your mastery goals.

The printing has been around for ages now, still people master calligraphy.

Seeing many people using AI to prototyping and ordering boards, I am curios if JLCPCB, PCBWAY and the other prototyping services has upticks in their orders. It would be great to see some numbers.

I hope this is a joke and you really don't consider this as such.

It's in fact opening up too many opportunities to us humans. It's never been this easy to acquire information and accomplish things.

I have been using Gemini, Claude, ChatGPT, Grok (whatever is available) to create esp32 boards. As I am very new into this field, I mostly use them to query about schematics, ICs, routing, kicad, electronic foundations and so on. They are great help and provide me invaluable advice. However It's always better to validate one's result with others. I have many cases where they would provide me catastrophic advice and a second opinion fixed it.

It's always fun to get apologies from LLMS. I love it.

I'll check the newer models as soon as possible to see how much improvement they provide.

It's not a transplantation, as it implies a separate donor. Is it not?

Perhaps the title needs to clarify the source of the transplanted tissue as the same patient.

Well I have to agree on both counts.

Perhaps what "feel frustrating" needs to be agreed upon. I took it as I would not like to do this as I feel it to be kind of distasteful, not as I would take this but the code would be confusing.

That's my point. It should not be frustrating. It's part of the job. A responsibility a professional should be ready for.

On the part of vibe coded code, it can be a "bad code base" and readily so it's very understandable that reading it can be frustrating. However it could also be very well written. LLM written code can be considered a codebase that was written by a large portion of the developer community all together. It's not coming from some software. Software curated that from human written code one word at a time.

Examples:

  - When you are working in a team, you always take responsibility of the code your team mates has written, (review, maintain, bugfix, extend, refactor..)
  - Sometimes organizations reorg and you land in owning already written code by some other team (whole takeover)
  - Some other times you take a position to maintain and fix, refactor, bugfix an unknown codebase. You will work on this and leave. So it is never your code. (can be whole takeover, can be temporary ownership)

Perhaps they shouldn't be allowed to school until 16? School and other kids can expose theirs to many detrimental things.

"As a professional developer, I would find it very frustrating to have to debug someone else's code and also be held responsible for that code." Are you really a professional programmer? A very basic responsibility for many professionals are maintaining someone else's code.
