same but this could be useful for db level things that are not business logic related.

i have always had maintenance packages for this type of stuff. if i could deploy them alongside the database itself that could be kind of cool.

but yeah i agree with you that i do prefer having this in the code layer.

just fire them if they can’t think

you have claude for that, to execute your plan

you need to hire a human to make that plan, using AI to improve it not using AI to come up with it. you should be doing that imo.

human thinks. ai executes what i tell it. it can detect patterns and work across dozens of files at once which i cant do as fast.

not in a position of doing that lul

why does it matter?

use vite to build apps your business needs and move on

focus on what matters or just be a w2 somewhere and do endless bikeshedding

vite just works

i have 128gb ddr4 from a few years ago. i think i paid like 300-400 for it.

its paired to a 5950x so im sure it will be fine for a few more years

One would think the CPU prices would drop as RAM crunches PC sales, but apparently not

is this a story you hallucinated or something you actually experienced?

this kind of gatekeeping is cringe

yea i know there are PE exams and certs

doesn’t change the fact that it’s cringe

no amount of down votes can convince me otherwise

Work with some chukelfucks that don't know what they're doing and have no standards, and the cringe will go in the other direction. The gatekeeper serves a purpose. It's not arbitrary. We don't want bridges that fall down nor skyscrapers. Cars shouldn't randomly explode, either.

true. thankfully i’ve limited my exposure to annoying terribads like that.

what if…

we just used ai to improve products and services

instead of all this wanking off showing how you go through 1 billion tokens a month (not really that impressive)

what would be way more cool is

i made something that reliably saves others 8 hours a month of busywork

2005: "Why would I run my workloads in the cloud? I have 400 certifications!"

There is still, to this very day, not a good reason for most businesses to run their workloads in the cloud (startups being a notable exception). So, your argument isn't as compelling as you think.

we’re on hacker news

those types of businesses are probably old and legacy and unless they’re finance or healthcare i don’t really care for them if i’m honest

I generally try not to be outright dismissive of articles/blogposts, but I don't see a ton of value in reading about someone being against opening Pandora's Box after the box has been opened. It can never be shut and we are going to have to figure out how to live with the consequences of it.

I gave the article a chance regardless and it's nothing I've not read before.

Indoor smoking in restaurants used to be legal, we made it illegal. Slavery used to be legal, we made it illegal. Don’t say that it’s not possible to stop bad things that are already happening.

It’s kind of a pointless article. Also framed wrong. Generative AI doesn’t “stand for” anything. It’s just a cool technology. Author’s time would be better spent criticizing big tech perhaps.

Actively detaching yourself from the problems of a technology doesn't suddenly make it a pointless exercise. It just puts into question whether you have any moral compass whatsoever.
