Sadly, the new norm. I had to age-verify myself just to use Claude the other day.

Ah fair enough… Then ordering the milk makes more sense…

Are the expiry dates not too visible on the milk?

I’m sorry, but WHAT?? What in the OCD hell is this? Who stacks milk in an order away or towards a hinge of a fridge door? Since when is either of these things an actual THING?

Haha, your last line in your post. I’m glad I’m not the only one that uses the screwdriver vs drill line… 😊

My daughter and my wife. My daughter is the most amazing, caring, wonderful person and I couldn’t be more proud of who she is becoming. Every day she brings a smile to my face. My wife because she stands by me, supports me, puts up with me (mostly), and is my lifelong partner. My life would not be what it is today if it wasn’t for her by my side.

This so much! I can search on google or Bing and get two actual results and the rest are ads. I ask gemini or others and sure I have to ask again but I get the results much quicker than wading through two pages of ads.

Just ask Australian how well minimum age verification works!

Wtf is post nut clarity?

I think the problem is a cyclical one. Some devs are afraid to admit that they used AI to help them code because there’s so much hatred towards using AI to code. But the hatred only grows because some devs are not disclosing that they’ve had help from AI to code and it seems like they’re hiding something which then builds distrust. And of course, that’s not helped by the influx of slop too where an AI has been used and the code has not been reviewed and understood before its released.

I don’t mind more foss projects, even if they’re vibe coded, but please PLEASE understand your code IN FULL before releasing it, if at least so you can help troubleshoot the bugs people experience when they happen!

Built with Claude by the looks of things. Not sure if Claude was used to generate the boilerplate and whether the dev reviewed it after or whether Claude did all of it, but definitely Claude was used for some of it. I recognise the coding style that Claude outputs and the bugs that it implements that will cause TypeErrors if not handled.

FWIW, I’m not against using AI as an assistant for coding (I do it too, using Claude and Vercel as assistants) just as long as the code is reviewed and understood in full by the dev before publishing.

Nothing wrong with a professional developer with years of experience using AI as a tool for coding, just as long as they review the output first before using it in their project. My workplace (where I work as a dev) provides us with a Claude subscription to use it as a tool. It’s kind of just like using a drill instead of a screwdriver to screw something into a wall - done well in the right hands it’s fine, give it to a 13yo and they’re going to drive the screw through the plaster and make a holy mess of it.

What IS wrong is a human who has little-to-no experience coding using an AI to develop the entire codebase and then the human releases the code into the wild without some level of peer review from a human who DOES have experience and then claiming it as their own creation. That’s almost sloppy plagiarism (of ironically already sloppy plagiarism).

How’s the performance on something like this?

If this is on Twitter, then it makes sense. That platform is a cesspool

Debrid services

The title asks when was the first time you had to call 911…Did I miss something?

Never had to because, well, doesn’t work here. I’m in one of those many other countries that exist who still have emergency services but use other numbers. 😉

I vibe code from time to time because people sometimes demand quick results in an unachievable timeline. In saying that, I may use a LLM to generate the base code that provides a basic solution to what is needed and then I go over the code and review/refactor it line by line. Sometimes if time is severely pressed and the code is waaaay off a bare minimum, I’ll have the LLM revise the code to solve some of the problem, and then I review, adjust, amend where needed.

I treat AI as a tool and (frustrating and annoying) companion in my work, but ultimately I review and adjust and amend (and sometimes refactor) everything. It’s kind of similar to when you are reading code samples from websites, copying it if you can use it, and refactoring it for your app, except tailored a bit more to what you need already…

In the same token, I also prefer to do it all myself if I can, so if I’m not pressed for time, or I know it’s something that I can do quickly, I’ll do it myself.
