seriously, you haven't lived until you've tried htmx in hiccup served by pedestal from a datomic database. simple data all the way down

clojure. max out this energy. you know you want to

yes but in clojure I basically have this all the time in my own way so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

all rumors are false until officially denied, so...

I've given in. I now use a little AI around the edges of system I bled into for the last 8 years. holy shit. that is all.

lisp & htmx best friends no matter what been saying this for years* unify.bio/ *at least two, so technically plural

or just pick whichever one isn't AI speak at the moment

relationships are over, we're all fucking blow up dolls now, another win for AI!

some of the people in your comments have never written a jvm service that's been running on a single instance in aws for years without even a restart handling thousands of requests a second with a buttery smooth response rate and it shows

always has been you goddamn necromancer

also using tools doesn't usually make people worse at using the tool

i mean the right way to do it is to teach them both, so they know which option to use, when, and why, and the tradeoffs of each. then also teach them not to be twitter zealots

lol if you call yourself a prompt engineer and don't have σπεῦδε βραδέως in all your llm facing markdown.

(1) the best way to produce a formal specification of a program is to write a program, & (2) bSAT is the reference NP-complete problem. formal methods in practice has shown that formal specification takes sig. more work than writing robust software through discovery effort.

bioinformatics reference databases. that's it. that's the only thing

no. complexity is entropy. you can't win by leveraging it with ai. insight yielding simplicity is still the way. ai junkies can't touch dominating apps of the past that had first significant cuts built on the timescale of weeks (linux & git, ffmpeg, instagram, craigslist).

you don't need LLMs to write functional code. - craigslist was built in a few weekends - core ffmpeg in a few months - linux to initial version in 5 months and git in a few weeks - instagram 8 weeks - stardew valley even @ 4 years destroys LLMs LLMs suck

the insane amnesia these AI fanbros have; they think the existence of coding agents somehow cancels out the fact that people have built incredible software with solo dev effort in short periods of time w/life-changing consequences.

no, it's not 'early', it's at the saturation point. vibe coding for months is way worse than what people get out of weekend or vacation projects. the only 'early' that makes sense here is 'early' as in 'it will be awhile before it's not way worse than competent humans'

yeah totally not made up numbers. totally not highlighting "code" as the metric b/c there's not a lack of meaningful outcome to attach to it otherwise. but sure let's amplify that implied 80th percentile tier effort so that it drowns out everything better, what could go wrong?
