I think your second paragraph is too broad. The same could be said for kids doing the bare minimum to play video games, or even go outside to play with their friends all prior to social media. Many people long spent too much time watching tv, and still do, instead of pursuing what you think success is. Also, let people be content, we don't always need to engaging in activities for success



No, I don't think so. But my context is different as is anyone's reply about their LLM usage.

I'm still creating software but with English that's compiled down to some other language.

I'm personally comfortable reading code in many languages. That means I'm able (hopefully!) to spot something that doesn't look quite right. I don't have to be the one pressing keys on the keyboard but I'm still accountable for the code i compile and submit.


Excellent! I've done the same thing. Five prompts to have a working iOS app that solves my problem.


As a non iOS user wouldn't be the hard part getting it on the phone? The last time I checked you would still need apple hardware and 100$ per year for the developer license or something like that.


Technically you can upload it to your phone for free, but you have to re-upload it every seven days, which makes it pretty frustrating.


hah, and with everything in the cloud future generations probably won't understand what a .docx is or .md or .exe


the reality is people will be shipping "prototype code" all the time, outpacing those that don't and winning.


the author of this post and Steve yegge come to mind


Anecdotally I had Gemini convert a simple react native app to swift in two prompts. If it's that simple then maybe we will see less of the chromium desktop apps


I'd argue the contrary, YOU KNOW you have the option, ease of entering doesn't mean they will know how to choose better, they will just vibe code more electron apps. In fact my prediction is not there will be less Electron apps but more


The lesson for me here is the round robin DNS configuration.

I had an issue with the theme of your site probably not being important anyway. If your site probably isn’t important then it’s probably ok that it’s down too.


Anecdotally: No, I had no idea who he was reporting to so it sounds like a natural moving on storyline.
