> Just adding an atomic() context manager fixed it.

ok looks like you are intimately familiar with the code that is being produced and are AI as code generator rather than pure vibe coding. That makes sense to me.

Btw did AI add that line when you explained what the error was or did you add that in manually.

he said RL sucks because it narrowly optimizes to solve a certain set of problems in certain sets of conditions.

he compared it to students who win at math competition but cant do anything practical .

did you not run into this problem described by ilya below

this has been my experience purely vibecoding. i am surprised it works well for others.

btw the current production bug. how did you discover that and why it slip out. looks like site wasn't working at all when you posted that comment?

how many prompts did it take you to make this?

how did you make sure that each new prompt didn't break some previous functionality?

did you have a precise vision for it when you started or did you just go with whatever was being given to you?

> how could his sister convince the teacher she had actually written the essay herself?

She can't because she didn't write the essay herself, obviously.

i know several friends and family who cycled through here ( non tech) . they pay relatively higher salaries for chicago burbs area, so lot of ppl take their chances despite the bad reputation around here.

it was fine to say this is something new and ppl should maybe look at it. but strongly recommending its and calling it wild is not a nuanced opinion. esp given you have not actually used it yourself in any serious way. is it really that big a ask to only use hype words for things you've actually used and made a big difference to you.

edit: looks like my comments crossed into personally attacking you . i apologize for it.

well explain why OPost is "wild" and what makes you recommend it "strongly" .

what have u built with to come to those conclusions ? is this too much to ask.
