Bro, if I don’t have to sit there for a half hour banging out code to map structure A on to structure B, I won’t. I’ll let someone else write it and spend 5 minutes to check that the code is clean and it works

Vibe coding is you not reviewing what the model outputs. I read every line, often give feedback and tell the model about patterns I want to use.
I probably write like 60-70% of the code myself.


I disagree about better code. Claude has been pretty bad at understanding external context and deriving why you’re doing something from the implementation. This can result in wonky structure that you need to fix, or at the very least tell Claude to redo over and over untill it looks clean and organized.


Honestly, never been on a team that stuck to TDD. As you test your stuff, and understand whatever libraries and apis you’re calling you modify your implementation as you go.
For public facing methods, especially ones called by customers, having pre agreed upon tests matter more but usually that’s at the integration test and system test level. I usually use AI for unit testing and read what was written. Tests end up being a lot of writing harnesses and setting up mocks that you delegate to the model and if there’s gaps or incorrect requirements, you change them.
I would never let the agent define the code structure. It doesn’t understand business processes or what might need to be extended or we’re instead about.
I’ve been doing software for a while, I know how to review code. I don’t vibe code, I let the model implement boilerplate and mapping functions while I do other stuff, like manual testing or talking with product. If done correctly, you can incorporate generative models into your workflows without fully handing over all control.


There’s an anecdote that comes up in software about people working on missile software not caring about memory leaks because it’s going to explode anyway before that becomes an issue.
Who cares about bugs in your software if it’s a hobby project that’s going to blow up anyway.
Also, including Claude doesn’t inherently mean vibe coded, it can be for writing tests, small components, or debugging.


Idk, car brained to me is actively promoting car centric policies when an area is already swamped with car infrastructure and New York does the opposite. Sure there’s always going to be some knuckleheads who don’t want sustainable transit options but for the most part it’s a public transit focused city.


In what universe is NYC car brained? They’ve been trying to reduce car traffic for years with congestion pricing and expanding the regions that don’t need parking space mandates for new construction.


Hope it does well, but consider how hard it was to get people to move from WhatsApp to discord, getting them to use a niche federated option is going to be an uphill battle for any non-techie groups for a bit.


Forget DHS or other government agencies, these companies have been shown to be untrustworthy stewards of our data from regular hackers.
I get that discord is used to groom kids and there is a very real risk to allowing children to use it unsupervised, but that means kids devices are the ones that need to be locked down, not the rest of the world.


Some species of ants form rafts and “swim” on water.


From my perspective, I would think of it as a sexual health issue, so there’s no reason to tell them. I would tell my parents if I had a flu, I’m not going out of my way to tell them if I’m taking a male enhancement drug or about my condom use.


That sounds like something you should do with content moderation rather than technologically.
There are also world politics communities, that explicitly ban US and other global north news. There are also country specific news communities as well. That’s kind of what having multiple communities is for.
If people aren’t willing to subscribe to those communities, they’re likely less willing to use a whole different lemmy instance.


I think he’s more of a useful idiot who Putin nudged in the right direction.
Like everyone else, he’s happy to throw Putin aside if he doesn’t seem useful anymore.


A lot of dangerous jobs require significant training and are safer when done or supervised by people with years of experience.
I saw this a lot in corporate middle management treating software developers as generic assets who could just be shuffled between teams as necessary without acknowledging people have different experiences with different technologies and different competencies.
If you’re wondering if you should eat there, the bigger issue is they’re just not very good. Its all reheated food frozen in central kitchens optimized for delivery.
I think its owned by the doordash guy too, so they don’t exactly support ethical compensation for their delivery workers
