You know you can make your UI not look like AI wrote it, with AI, right?

Egypt hasn't gone beast mode since pre 1200 BC

Did I say programmers haven't done anything culturally significant? No, clearly not. I'm saying the vast majority of all programmers have not done anything culturally significant

I thought Rich Hickey's sand cookie analogy was more apt than this bed shitting one.

I worked with plumbers on a daily basis for a number of years. The masters were generally never actually plumbing for the most part. I would say 95% of them did not treat plumbing as an intellectual exercise. Of course, this is just an anecdote. I heard the "your shit is my bread and butter" hundreds of times from different plumbers thinking it was comedies final joke.

Doesn't that imply that there's nothing inherently wrong about shitting in someone's bed and then sleeping in it?

I think the worst part of it is that we are forced to value ourselves based on our jobs. Of course, there's no easy to answer to what everyone would do if no one had to work again.

I don't think people would choose to fix toilets to survive if they didn't have to

It was inevitable. Who want's to pay an extra bundle for a plumber to come in and destroy a bunch of walls to fix a clogged pipe? No job is safe.

I think it's definitely not accurate to say that these people have not made anything significant. It sounds like coping. How many programmers have made anything culturally significant? How many are just codemonkeys who fulfill someone else's requests, take their cheques, and go home?

In my opinion, the whole anti-LLM coding thing is purely ego preservation. And I get that, who the hell want's to believe their high paying job is going away? To say using LLMs cannot achieve results bigger than 'one-shotting a note taking app' is really just not true.

Comparing it to NFTs is absolutely wild also. NFTs literally were mass psychosis and had no value whatsoever. You're saying someone can't build software, even just for themselves, or otherwise, that doesn't have any value at all? How could that be true?

Written by an LLM

Sounds like a personal problem

I would ask why they chose for it to need to be installed, rather than just delivering some web application

I disagree, you have control over the parts when using an LLM. You don't have control over the parts when buying a pre-built

We can bring Kid Pix with the bomb back. Someone Show HN tomorrow Kid Pix ported to wasm

I would love to have this as an electron package/standalone if/when the website ever goes away. It's great work

Why do people say I built this computer when they didn't manufacture all the parts?

I prefer "I willed this into existence"

Sick, love it

They needed to research this? They could've just asked me

Some government contractor got paid beaucoup bucks to vibecode this

People use Antigravity still?

It certainly downplays the achievements of those olden daysers

I always found the Jaynes' Bicameral Mind theory interesting, hypothesizing essentially Bronze age peoples did not have conscious thought, but attributed their thoughts to gods speaking to them. It's probably not true, but it's kind of like an era that can only exist through mythology and legend. So when actual details are discovered, and a little bit of the darkness is lifted, I always find it interesting

i have a mouth and am screaming

This is such incredible news! I was just wondering the other day if we are ever going to find more Bronze age writings. Such an endlessly fascinating time period

Huh, wow. What a find. You know, I believe it. Giving big Donnie Darko vibes, y'know, only being a month away
