That is such an unfair comparison though. The reason we are now getting completely screwed on consumer electronics is because massive corporations just get to bully around the rest of the world and we have zero control over it.
Building a gaming PC right now is no longer affordable. I can't even upgrade my hard drives because they have tripled in price. And it's all because of good old capitalism.
Because they basically pick and choose what's in there.
If you sat down and did the math on what it costs someone to pay rent / mortgage, car insurance, health insurance, daycare, schooling, going out to eat and drink, doing anything for entertainment, go to the grocery store.. it's not a debate that the real inflation is significantly higher all the time than what is used to measure the number.
Well, I'm on a small two person team.. for the last few years I would have loved to have 2-3 people under me.. I've been underwater constantly, but we couldn't afford it.
Now I have no need for anyone from a coding perspective.. I can keep up with multiple clients requests with a breeze. I don't have to manage anyone. I type of my phone while I'm on a walk and work gets done for me.
I would just say in general Angular is best if you basically want to build an old school application as a website.. and especially if you kind of hate javascript and web development but focus on the backend as the main part.
Maybe after they realized how they were vulnerable they asked an LLM to find the exploit through a similar means to try and replicate it. Still doesn't prove it but maybe gives them confidence this weird thing can only really be found that way etc.
Yes it is remotely true. Name one thing they have shut off that a large number of people actually used and it was important. We all joke about Google dropping things and yes they have, but saying they can just drop Gmail is.. well, insane.
>Yep. The only people I've heard saying that generated code is fine are those who don't read it.
If you already have a mature code base, then it's very easy to get AI to write excellent code. It has a ton of documentation on what you already do, how you do things, functions to use etc.
I read all the changes AI does. I work in small chunks.
>Even if you have an architecture in mind, and even if the agent follows it, sooner or later it will need to be reconsidered
The agent can modify the structure you want to change to 100x faster than you can. That's the beauty of it. We all know how hard it is manually to make architectural changes once you've started to lock into something.
These comments just show me you must not be using AI in the right way, or haven't used it enough to learn "how" to use it. I've been using claude code months now at full speed. You are simply wrong that it doesn't generate good code.
Sorry but what a ridiculous take. There are two phone options in the western world: iphone and android. 99.99% of the people aren't' going to even fathom they could install their own OS on a phone or whatever.
There is a clear MONOPOLY on phones and to even further take away the right to just install something on it is crazy. I already hate Apple for that, but there's no recourse in the monopolistic & capitalistic US and now it's going to be 100% gone.
"it should be fine for Google or Apple to do whatever they want with their OS"
>I fear the author and most commenters are not aware of the law of demand and supply
I cannot stand how you and people like you try to justify everything by supply and demand. Also you act like it's some natural law of nature. It's not a law of nature- if you took an economics class you would realize it's try to maximize PROFIT. It's not for the good of the people.
All of these things are a CHOICE that people are making to now completely screw the average person for, again, the needs of big corporations and the top 0.01%.
Give me a break. Most people don't have any real benefits. Healthcare costs are insane. Daycare costs are insane. Rent is insane. Car costs are insane. Insurance is insane. Grocery costs are insane. Higher education costs are insane.
You sound like you are single no kids and on here with a cushy tech job and be like "those poor people just don't know how to manage their money!"
The proof is already there. It's concrete. I've seen it directly the last few months of using claude code. It closed the loop. It's insanely beneficial when used properly- that is a pure fact. You act like it's an opinion.
That's not an elephant in the room.. it's just proof of how insanely useful the tool is and the reality that so much more hardware is needed. Thus people saying "why are these companies building insanely large data centers" ... this is why!
Except the definitions of poverty are defined to make it seems like it's not poverty. When you have a massive amount of the population that lives paycheck to paycheck, is one small medical emergency away from bankruptcy / can't pay their rent/mortgage. Will lose their job because of little to no protections. Very little social safety nets... most people are a lot closer to 'poverty' than looking at simple statistics.
I have been building a game via a separate game logic library and Unity (which includes that independent library).. let's just say that over the last couple weeks I have 100% lost the need to do the coding myself. I keep iterating and have it improve and there are hundreds of unit tests.. I have a Unity MCP and it does 95% of the Unity work for me. Of course the real game will need custom designing and all that; but in terms of getting a complete prototype setup.... I am literally no longer the coder. I just did in a week what it would have taken me months and months and months to do. Granted Unity is still somewhat new to, but still.. even if you are an expert- it can immediately look at all your game objects and detect issues etc.
So yeah for some things we are already at the point of "I am not longer the coder, I am the architect".. and it's scary.
Very true.. also I would say even what I get out of claude code is absolutely phenomenal right now.. but sometimes it does take minutes. I just had it take 15 minutes to do something. But what if you had access to the hardware to run it basically instantly?
Just think how these big companies will use that kind of power for themselves to get even more extreme uses out of it.
Downvoting you isn't enough. How about we stop trying to take advantage of people and extra every dollar from them in every possible way?
