Yeah, same. I sort of stand back and watch, for a bit, and too much hype makes me wary. I was going to try BitChat, out of curiosity, but the mass hysteria it elicited was completely inexplicable and totally grossed me out, so I was like,
That always happens at the max least-convenient time, fr. Hate certs.
Samiz has been around for 4 months.
You can run this Android test with Amethyst or with Jumble or etc. Pick your poison. π
Where the Nostr beta testers at? ππ»ββοΈ This is Bluetooth without client lock-in. Woo-hoo! LFG π nostr:nevent1qvzqqqqqqypzqezksxuaqea35d3vf0hgmhleslfyvm2fjpwzdju0a30xlde67hyyqy88wumn8ghj7mn0wvhxcmmv9uq3qamnwvaz7tmwdaehgu3wd4hk6tcqyp6vzutjxnphqauhxf34dev5f80recft273rrhntan3jen5x75a22ly3a68
Yeah, I just use VS Code and my favorite plugins and codestral, at work, and it's stress-free AI. As soon as the AI is running in the IDE, it gets nuts, fast.
Yeah, they all do weird stuff. Buggy. The vibe-coding AI has also been vibe-coded by the same AI, so...
I'm starting to hate using Cursor. Ollama Codestral is more my style, especially as I can run it locally and query it in the browser, and don't sit, there, terrified, frantically smashing the STOP button.
You can usually cut the code it writes down by at least a β .
Nostrich.house bot strikes again.
The entire code base quickly degrades to the AI saying "Trust me, bro.*
Once you start doing SSR and BFF and active relay management and advanced caching and native storage and other performance magic β¨, then the frontend/backend divide sort of melts and everything is full stack.
Yeah, it was rotating through fixes for half an hour, last night, and then I was like, Hmm, maybe the outer container is too narrow. π€ *Change 5 characters. Problem fixed. Push commit. Go to bed.* Someone else's AI had broken the responsiveness of the outer container, in a previous PR. The AI tech debt just goes π
I will be hand-rolling the Alexandria integration and feature tests. It will take a long time, to write them. But the tests will really test. It's worth it. https://media.tenor.com/gDEiYe-agQoAAAAC/parks-and-rec-april-ludgate.gif nostr:nevent1qvzqqqqqqypzplfq3m5v3u5r0q9f255fdeyz8nyac6lagssx8zy4wugxjs8ajf7pqyt8wumn8ghj7emjv4jkuum0w4kzuumsv93k2tcpr3mhxue69uhkw6t5vd5hgctyv4kzumn0wd68yvfwvdhk6tcqyq2zsak6xxkkhh85n28uv9ag4z9jcfj643l0hq5dkytw6c7632ywq8xsk07
Align it with a #PurpleKonnektiv meetup and meet the whole crew.
It just occured to me that boring-out and de-skilling every dev with a clue makes it much easier to roll out intentionally-bad code. Nobody will ever read the code, again, so you can put whatever you want in it. Tests might be able to find that, but they're vibe-coding the tests, as well. Sort of the way that the quality of bread completely collapsed, once it was being made by machines in big factories, as the people standing around the machines were no longer bakers. Nobody in the bread factory knew how to bake bread.

As soon as you pay attention, you're reduced to screaming at the screen to SLOW DOWN, SO I CAN READ THE CODE. But then you lose the speed factor. You're still glad you did it, as the code invariably has some WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK? bits in it, but it's arguably slower than just writing it yourself. And you immediately start forgetting how to write it yourself. Your brain quickly removes those faculties because they are expensive and have fallen in disuse. Literally draw a blank, when you want to print a line to the console. Also, just... You can't even imagine the sheer tedium of auditing someone else's code, full-time. Just reading generated code, all day, every day.
Everything is fun until about 10k-20k lines of code. The problem is that those lines are a grey box. You can see the code, but you can't navigate around in it. You are stuck stumbling around, trying to figure out how it works, so that you can take it from there. The temptation to just throw it in the garbage and start over, by hand, is high.
This is always the plan. LOL
