Glad to see they are applying some rigor. I've started removing AI-heavy projects from my dependency tree.


Are you and Redox just going to fall behind? Projects that used to take months take days or hours.

It seems well intentioned, but lots of bad ideas are like this.

I was told by my customer they didn't need my help because Claude Code did the program they wanted me to quote. I sheepishly said, 'I can send an intern to work in-house if you don't want to spend internal resources on it.'

I can't really imagine what kind of code will be done by hand anymore... Even military level stuff can run large local models.


Projects that used to take months still take months. LLM’s are only useful for throwaway low-quality slop. Perhaps some times the sloperator will get lucky and the end result isn’t something that will bite them in the ass. But the rest of us foresee a mountain of tech debt that will come knocking one day.


This is like 2 months outdated.


This is a fair representation of the slop I'm given throughout each week:

It's an operating system, not a website.
