Yeah, it was you, according to the username on the commits. If you are trying to show HN something, just do a "Show HN". It is really weird to say "Someone open sourced..." about your own work.
Personally, I have little interest in these types of projects. It just feels like a new take on automated marketing spam. Having an agent do it every 4 hours without human intervention makes it worse, not better.
> The LLM will suggest changes (design, architecture, functionality, ...) to your code, but will roughly use your pseudo code style.
So it will change your architecture, but keep your line-by-line logic? Is this like a self-driving car that takes you to the wrong destination, but accurately follows traffic laws on the way?
Give me the opposite - something that builds exactly what I designed, but has the freedom to get there in better ways than I suggest.
Bodies acclimate. You'll go up in altitude one day and get quite sick, then the next day or another day you'll be fine. Spend a week there and you'll feel better. Drink water, stay hydrated, and it will go more smoothly. So unless somebody found something specifically atypical about your body, don't reject all mountains in the world because of one bad day 40 years ago.
I have had severe asthma since puberty. After a decade of suffering, good drugs arrived around the turn of the century, and I've been well controlled since and I've been pretty active.
But I am better at altitude. I have narrow obstructed tubes in my lungs. Thinner air flows through them more easily. The higher I am (on land, obviously) the more easily and efficiently I can breathe.
In the old days, asthma clinics were located up mountains for this reason.
I like spending time at altitude. Thinner air means more oxygen for me, which means I feel better and can be more active.
If I could live 3-4 km up all the time, without vast expense in somewhere tiny, I would.
What an odd take. I think most any dev knows what we mean when we say 'sanitize'. Trying to re-define the word and thereby imply that we are censoring content is pretty far off from reality.
This may be a bit of a tangent, but I don't agree with being all-in on agentic coding.
Look at the bigger picture. In many other industries, LLM-based solutions are in place. They were embraced, implemented, people learned what works and does not, and the solutions were built a while ago. They are up and running and just day-to-day business at this point.
But with coding, we're still fighting to make it happen. We see job postings with all that detail because it does not "just work". We keep trying to find the best models, the best practices. People keep saying that "Real Soon Now", LLMs can do our jobs 100%. But at the end of the day, we're still writing the same apps we've been writing. Our output has not changed, except maybe a little more speed alongside a little more slop. People who do get it to work do so by throwing a lot of money at tokens. Is that all we are doing? Funding the AI platform vendors and stressing ourselves over... a minor speed improvement?
Am I the only one that thinks that the tech industry is actually failing at AI, and all the talk and effort about it just proves that point?
No, that sounds like what consultants would do on an integration project, but not at all how software development works. Sure, you call APIs - after you write them. Which comes after you define what connections are needed between various layers of the system, which odds are you are also writing.
Saying that most software development is done by calling APIs is like saying that most driving of cars is done by moving your hands to the left and the right. Sure, that is an important piece of what is going on, but it really misses the bigger picture.
But in all seriousness, ads are one of the main reasons quality has decreased online. If AI breaks the ad-driven economy and forces the internet to be something else, ya know... maybe that is not so bad.
Isn't this old news? We've known for many years that cross-posting similar content decreases SEO results. And nowadays, with Google becoming less and less important, why even play the SEO game at all? It always was a bit of snake oil anyway.
Besides, if your goal is how to spam content and get eyes on it, well, that sure sounds like you are trying to be part of the problem. Whether or not you can get automated spam in search results, it is exactly what people do not want in their search results.
I do still enjoy it, but only because I'm so deep into it that I don't need to work all the time, and can pick and choose exactly who I work for, work with, and what tech I work on. If I were younger and less established, I would be seriously looking elsewhere.
