Nah our ideals are very different

Unfortunately correct, I’ve seen this strategy work already. I wonder if it will end up being a veritable race to the wage floor for workers.

I’ve seen others go the “grass fed, free range, human made, artisan software” route as well, utterly opposing ai assistance.

At some point there must have somebody out there making sweaters and swearing up and down that machines could never do their job as well, but at the end of the day the employee who makes the shirt doesn’t decide if their job will be automated. The boss cares about the economics and even if the product is inferior they will choose the cheaper option.

So do economists!

I use it extensively daily.

It cannot step through code right now, so true debugging is not something you use it for. Most of the time the llm will take the junior engineer approach of “guess and check” unless you explicitly give it better guidance.

My process is generally to start with unit tests and type definitions, then a large multipage prompt for every segment of the app the llm will be tasked with. Then I’ll make a snapshot of the code, give the tool access to the markdown prompt, and validate its work. When there are failures and the project has extensive unit tests it generally follows the same pattern of “I see that this failure should be added to the unit tests” which it does and then re-executes them during iterative development.

If tests are not available or if it is not something directly accessible to the tool then it will generally rely on logs either directly generated or provided by the user.

My role these days is to provide long well thought out prompts, verify the integrity of the code after every commit, and generally just kind of treat the llm as a reckless junior dev. Sometimes junior devs can surprise you, like yesterday I was very surprised by a one shot result: asking for a mobile rn app for taking my rambling voice recordings and summarize them into prompts, it was immediately remarkably successful and now I’ve been walking around mic’d up to generate prompts.

Magic quotes were the single biggest mistake I’ve ever seen any language standard make.

Fiverr and upwork are the standard starting places, their policies of keeping contractors on the site are rough, the cut they take is rough, and the competition is rough.

I’ve had success identifying specific software vendors with functional deficits and targeting customers of that software

Tailwind uses css variables, it’s really nothing more than a bunch of helper classes on top of css, it’s not a replacement or anything.

Ngl I love tailwind, I’ve been through so many different css paradigms

• separate css files: why did we ever do this, if you’ve ever used kendo’s css stuff you’ll understand how unfathomable hundreds of thousands of lines of css with complex rules is. Identifying all the things that affect a single component is the work of dozens of minutes at minimum, sometimes hours, you have to understand every nook and cranny of the css spec.
• inline styles: fine, but verbose and requires object spreading, harder to compose, theming is tough and requires discipline to be consistent in your theme conventions, almost impossible to also theme imported library components
• module.css with imported classes: my go to outside of tailwind
• scss: I actually really like scss but it exacerbates the complexity and mystery of css, great for small projects but terrible as projects bloat
• bootstrap: basically just worse tailwind, providing only components and colors

That’s all I can think of right now, but tailwind is my preferred way to style a new project, I love how easy theming and style consistency is

Why not do it now?

My experience is every person in the US who enters the workforce and gets their first paycheck is always surprised. Since here in the us salary is given in pretax dollars, you never get the amount you’d expect for your first one.

Otherwise, some complain scout sales tax in the us for a similar reason, especially going from a state with none to a state with a high rate
