did you use single table design?

and yeah you have to spend a lot of upfront time designing your data models

20% time works when the 80% time spent is a money printer that goes brrrr

only a few companies like google had that imo. most companies cannot afford that.

The other problem is that R&D used to be taxed differently for decades, then people abused it and ruined it for everyone else, making it so only FAANG level companies can afford R&D.

i had this same complaint but no offense to you it turned out i was just not using the models right.

ai llm are doing what i tell them to.

if you’re building something meaningful (in my case a platform used by many people across many companies) you want to ensure you

1. have actual systems engineering and architecture in mind that you want the models to

2. implement based on what you tell it to do

when i was just telling the models what i want done without doing due diligence it would go and do some moronic implementation that was awful. mid input = mid output

these days i just maintain specifications documents and the AI follows everything i tell it to in that document. so when i tell it to dos one thing, the result is made following those architecture specs.

i have code that is single resp, modular, easy to extend and test.

i would ballpark 95% of the time i get what i asked for.

sometimes it tries to be clever in cases that weren’t covered in my arch specs. in those 5% of cases i go and update my specs.

source: used billions of tokens worth to build something actually in production across both mobile platforms and web, deployed on my own cloud infra. i use codex mainly. some claude.

same but this could be useful for db level things that are not business logic related.

i have always had maintenance packages for this type of stuff. if i could deploy them alongside the database itself that could be kind of cool.

but yeah i agree with you that i do prefer having this in the code layer.

just fire them if they can’t think

you have claude for that, to execute your plan

you need to hire a human to make that plan, using AI to improve it not using AI to come up with it. you should be doing that imo.

human thinks. ai executes what i tell it. it can detect patterns and work across dozens of files at once which i cant do as fast.

not in a position of doing that lul

why does it matter?

use vite to build apps your business needs and move on

focus on what matters or just be a w2 somewhere and do endless bikeshedding

vite just works

i have 128gb ddr4 from a few years ago. i think i paid like 300-400 for it.

its paired to a 5950x so im sure it will be fine for a few more years

One would think the CPU prices would drop as RAM crunches PC sales, but apparently not

is this a story you hallucinated or something you actually experienced?

this kind of gatekeeping is cringe

yea i know there are PE exams and certs

doesn’t change the fact that it’s cringe

no amount of down votes can convince me otherwise

Work with some chukelfucks that don't know what they're doing and have no standards, and the cringe will go in the other direction. The gatekeeper serves a purpose. It's not arbitrary. We don't want bridges that fall down nor skyscrapers. Cars shouldn't randomly explode, either.

true. thankfully i’ve limited my exposure to annoying terribads like that.
