I didn't read the post and scrolled to a random clause. "Because you own the code. You've added variants, changed classes, threaded new props. A codemod handles the components you …

most (all?) models are fundamentally a regression toward the mean. Good taste is rarely, if ever, residing in the mean.

It definitely activates something within people. Maybe I'm just terminally online, but there is always _always_ someone who will say "Idiocracy isn't satire, its a documentary."

Very cool. What have you built with this method? Do you mind sharing details about the kinds of projects?

But you don't actually do any of that, do you? Instead, you get tired and lazy and attempt to have the LLM solve those hard problems for you too. You just don't tell others about i…
