Cut down that tree. Can I have a saw? No Okay, it will take much longer then as I’ll have to do x, y, and z. Pick one: [That’s fine, proceed] [Okay you can use a saw]

Sure, but vibe coding a whole telecom platform that’s considered flawless by experts in the language is a pretty mythical feat if you ask me.

Possibly, but I’m a senior software engineer that’s been writing Elixir for the last 5 years and has been experimenting with and using AI for the last 12-18 months. Congrats on bei…

If you vibe coded an entire telecom infrastructure and an external audit found no issues then it sounds like you might need to find better auditors.

Such as?

Yes exactly! Good for you for keeping at it.

If you haven’t ran before and are carrying some extra weight then yeah it’s probably a good place to start for your first couple of short runs. Even running slowly puts additional …

10km/h is very fast for a beginner and likely unsustainable for more than a couple of minutes, I would expect most people to be starting around 5-6km/h if they’re a healthy weight.…

The issue with not having a single source of truth is not the fact that you have to update code in 2-3 places, it’s that you have to know to update code in 2-3 places. Accidental d…

The ones most likely to be “exposed to market forces” right now are the junior developers who never got to “have it good for so long”.

It's likely nearly impossible to evaluate that in the short term; I think we're looking at generational damage, much of which won't be apparent for years to come.

Yes the same applies to junior and inexperienced developers.

You can scaffold out a simple app pretty easily. Anything large or complex things break down. If you don’t know what you’re doing you end up leaking secrets like the dozens of exam…

A large portion of the content on the internet is now generated by AI. You can and do have full conversations with bots and not know. I want to interact with humans not LLMs. There…

I’m pretty sure they’re smart enough to remember to put “make no mistakes” in their prompt.

This lands for me. I’m pushing 40 and over the last few years I’ve definitely been eliminating distractions. Anything with scrolling or algorithms meant to suck you in is gone. Del…

Sorry if I worded poorly but you’re definitely less likely to run into a collision with v7, but it’s not impossible, which is what I was trying to point out. Thanks for a more arti…

Plenty of systems end up generating multiple UUID's in a single millisecond. The issue with UUIDv7 is that you also have significantly less entropy since you only have a 62 bits (s…

The scenario being the collision itself, the time period isn’t particularly relevant aside from it occurring much quicker than expected.

I left a more detailed comment on the parent, but it's definitely not impossible!

It's still possible in most implementations of UUIDv7. UUIDv7 assigns the first 48 bits for the timestamp in milliseconds. You can generate a lot of UUID's in a millisecond though!…

Unfortunately people are inherently lazy. Curious and driven indivdiuals will excel with the availability of LLM's, but the majority will atrophy.

I'm going to give Apple the benefit of the doubt here until proven otherwise. I can't see them releasing something with a terrible user experience as it would cause a lot of reputa…

It's cheap for what you get. If you just need "a small box to make API calls and do minimal local processing" you an also just buy a RPI for a fraction of the price of the GMKtec G…
