You mean rewrite it all from scratch? If you have any kind of standards that is what you end up doing. If you know what you’re doing you do it right the first time and move on. Using AI for coding it like trying to babysit the most inept, inexperienced intern to ever walk the earth. It wastes time and the end result is far worse.

If you are wondering how it could possibly be “worth it” the end of the article has this.

The Fastly survey found that senior developers were twice as likely to put AI-generated code into production compared to junior developers, saying that the technology helped them work faster.

So vibes. Vibe coding is “worth it” because people got good vibes.

The research shows that - while engineers think AI makes them more about 20% more productive - it actually causes an approximate 20% slow-down.

AI cannot use logic or reason. Everything it outputs is a hallucination, even if it’s sometimes accurate. You cannot trust anything it outputs.

I got enough enjoyment out of it for what little I spent a lifetime ago. I go see whats new every couple years, which is usually quite a lot. The game is still a disaster, but it’s a strangely interesting disaster.

That’s the push I needed. What are peoples recommendations for alternatives?

To a fascist, everything left of fascism is “radical left.” It’s mostly ignorance. You don’t become a rightist by being smart or nuanced.

Liberalism sounds leftist at first because the word suggests permissiveness. In reality, liberalism allows for the consolidation of wealth and power in ways that naturally result in society moving rightward. Neoliberals take it a step further by being more active in their theft of wealth and power rather than passive. Liberals are often described as “center-left” but they are essentially a kind of right-leaning centrist. You might also hear the term “enlightened centrist” used pejoratively for liberals who haughtily want to pretend to be “above” the left-right spectrum.

Leftism is ultimately about egalitarianism, particularly of wealth and power. This requires certain controls to prevent consolidation which results in rightist structures like feudalism, dictatorships, oligarchies, and the like. Liberals are against such controls, and so are enablers of rightism.

This is the leftist viewpoint, at least.

Notice which instance you are on and then remember that liberals are not leftists.

No matter what Kirk is going to be saintwashed by the right. Don’t forget that they will always build their preferred reality around themselves. I get your frustration but it’s important to remember that nothing you say will ever change a rightists mind. God itself could appear in the sky and tell off every evil, self-centered, delusional rightist to their face and they would still find a way to ignore it. Speech doesn’t work on rightists. Logic doesn’t work on rightists. Hard evidence doesn’t work on rightists.

This is why all the leftists on Lemmy are calling for impactful forms of protest. Until we get in the streets and shut everything down and impact their lives and livelihoods and stock prices nobody is going to negotiate. Power is all they recognize, and they are going to do everything they can to make sure we don’t have any.

There have been some bad Humble Choice bundles in the past, but this was the first time I felt insulted by one.

I am seeing a huge amount of that on Lemmy and Mastodon.

It's easier to hide the bots this way.

War is Peace
Freedom is Slavery
Ignorance is Strength

Nope, not ringing any bells. None at all.
