I'm looking at these reports and then at my sessions with Claude. In latest one, it got stuck in a loop fixing one thing and breaking another for 10 iterations, until I've noticed …

It's not cynical - I read it like that as well. My agent is more dangerous than your agent and all that jazz

Are you suggesting that Europeans should continuously use third party models be it American, Chinese or whatever?

The only place it make sense to me is the validation = at the route level you want to ensure that the given model exists / request attributes defining relationship (pivot), are the…

Mostly agree with the author. Would add, most importantly, dont trust anything LLM does or says. Today I asked Claude to uniform behaviour of 3 components. I asked to do it 5 times…

Same; the most infuriating parts - Claude caused the issue and Claude misdiagnosed the issue, making me spend more time than if I was debugging it myself.

Yes and no. If I were to ask you - what convention you want to follow for your database columns - camelcase or snakecase? There's no correct global answer. There's no overarching t…

I agree and indeed externalize everything you know *that matters*. Want to follow certain pattern, or convention - define it, ie active record vs repository pattern, stick is as an…

I'm tired of people not taking responsibility for things they do and not being held accountable for their actions - politicians mostly; for example - currently in Poland there's a …

Is it enshittification, or is USA simply turning into fascist state?

Leaving this here, as I couldn't leave it on authors blogpost: I grew accustomed to these choices, so would navigate through them on autopilot. Once I was quick enough to get "We n…

Ah, I see what you mean now. Yes, my mind went straight to static analysis and testing (unit, feature, uat, mutation). Thanks for expanding on your point!

Don't forget that LLMs are trained on human code. If they cannot understand what your code does then they cannot make changes to it, or at least - having them understand your codeb…

I disagree. What I should have added is that with agents (as well as humans) you do need to have tests that verify what was done.

Comment #48472598
Don't forget that you can adjust your requirements (either via plan or skill) to ensure the mistakes do not happen. The problem is that neither LLMs, nor humans (that don't work wi…

The road will be built to some specs, including features nobody asked for. If the corpus was trained for roads built in Arctic, you will get penguin crossings.

I agree. But if I'm paying for the road (even as a taxpayer) I get angry that after a year it's full of potholes and that there are unnecessary signs warning about penguin crossing…

Fair enough, but enterpreunership should, I guess, ask questions if given Next Big Thing has substance behind it or is it just snake oil.
