Comparing an outdated JavaScript library to a fundamental web technology doesn’t make sense to me at all.

If you work with the web in any serious way as a professional, AI or not, yes you should learn and understand CSS.

This isn’t true. Hosting providers have known IP blocks. Spin up a hand rolled VPN through a VPS and you’ll get blocked by a lot of services, or at the very least, treated as highly suspicious.

Coca-Cola is the only company that can legally import and process raw coca leaves into a flavoring agent. It’s literally impossible to duplicate their exact recipe.

It wasn’t that long ago that omarchy got started. As far as I could tell it was a direct response to DHH giving up on Apple. He was in a dispute with them in regards to App Store publishing and sales. He seems to have since made it his personal mission to move off of the Apple ecosystem.

No one was reporting their tips, or at least the full amount, prior to the changes.

Interesting that we’ve have such different experiences. I was working with both those models today and on several occasions it proposed some pretty poor solutions.

I also find I need to run an llm code review or two against any code it produces to even get to the point where’s it’s ready for human review.

In any case they served as an extremely valuable tool.

It’s not a solved problem at all. Your take is very libertarian, which I personally sympathize with, but if we’re being honest it doesn’t align with reality.

The truth is, there are a lot of bad parents that are, for various reasons, unable to perform these parental duties.

We’ve always restricted children from accessing certain things without relying solely on their parent’s abilities or discretion.

I’m strongly in favour in giving parents as much control as possible. That doesn’t negate the fact that the vast majority of children, for example, currently have completely unrestricted access to hardcore pornography.

Shrugging it off, proclaiming it’s a parental responsibility, doesn’t solve the real world problem.

Previous to the internet we didn’t allow free unrestricted distribution of pornography to children. We stepped in as a society and said, no actually if you’re selling that… fine, but you need to verify the age of the customer.

Can you explain how the permission model works?

Writing robust, bug free, efficient, maintainable, and readable code has never been easy and still isn’t. It’s an extremely difficult skill.

Are we seriously pretending that it was always easy now that an LLM can spit out some mediocre code? This seems to me a coping mechanism in response to the industry shifting.

The truth is we’re just realizing nobody, even the SWE’s, care about the code much as long as an LLM can grind it out for free.

There’s going to be a lot more of this coping as more and more human thinking gets automated. I can hear it now: “gathering business requirements was always the easy part”.

Can you elaborate on 1) What makes dhh far right? And 2) How that makes the omarchy or framework projects problematic?

I don’t think natural language is efficient enough. Whether that be text or voice.

I imagine the Star Trek vision is pretty accurate. You occasionally talk to the computer when it makes sense, but more often than not you’re still interacting with a GUI of some kind.

The law has yet to catch up to the idea of vibe coded software. I see significant problems.

Example: the other day someone was promoting their saas. They proudly advertised that they knew nothing about technology, and that AI created everything.

Yet their saas had a detailed privacy policy describing how your data was used. Of course the problem is, they have no way of knowing that their privacy policy is at all accurate. After all they don’t even know how to read their product’s code.

This undoubtedly exposes them to legal issues. I can imagine software being more tightly regulated as this spirals out of control.

We’ll hit a point soon where there’s so much dangerous and untrustworthy AI slop software on the market, that people will actively seek out and pay a premium for software created by professionals at reputable companies.

> It must certainly be allowed, as it greatly benefits some patients.

Is this for patients that can’t stay calm? It seems to me there would be plenty of far safer ways to sedate them. Example: some Xanax

Clinical depression is neither of those things.

It’s also called Major depressive disorder. It’s basically depression that isn’t a temporary response to something. It’s long lasting depression that doesn’t go away.

You can easily look up the diagnostic criteria online.
