I lose disputes all the time, no matter the evidence. I'm not happy with Stripe. The only thing keeping me from looking at alternatives is the low volume of fraud committed against my SaaS.

Do better Stripe. Be better Stripe. Or eventually we will find someone better. Think. Don't enshittify. Your support has already become covered in it by doing the needful.

Brazil can do this. Why can't we?

This feature exists already. It's called git.

My experience is Claude and others are good at writing methods and smaller because you can dictate what it should do in less tokens and easily read the code. This closes the feadback loop for me.

I occasionally ask AI to write lots of code such as a whole feature (>= medium shirt size) or sometimes even bigger components of said feature and I often just revert what it generated. It's not good for all the reasons mentioned.

Other times I accept its output as a rough draft and then tell it how to refactor its code from mid to senior level.

I'm sure it will get better but this is my trust level with it. It saves me time within these confines.

Edit: it is a valuable code reviewer for me, especially as a solo stealth startup.

As a stealth ceo of a profitable SaaS. This is a nice reminder for my company to wind down its relationship with OpenAI. I have no doubt Anthropic will eventually become evil but at least they have a backbone today.

Goodbye Sam.

Edit: Also, referring to the DOD as the Department of War is cringe.

Killing engineer teams? Hyperbole thread titles need to be killed. I find github actions to be just fine. I prefer it to bitbucket and gitlab.

I guess I'm old, but I can't believe that many people shop on their phones. You have limited screen space and your ability to input data efficiently is limited. It just seems like a really poor medium for researching a purchase. Guess I'm a dinosaur.
