You can still look at almost any codebase and ask 'why is this bit not using a state machine here?' ... the AASM repo readme is very accessible even if you don't know Ruby: https://github.com/aasm/aasm

They need to max valuation before hardware catches up and qwen3-coder can be run locally for free It's easy to forget the product Anthropic are selling here, and throttling, is based on data they mostly pay little or no content fee for

For the trivial cases that's fine (just using LLM does same) But this particular project is not like a standard site and the CSS is in small fragments across 100s files and uses constants for some things like color values in places too

Last week stripped out all CSS from a fairly substantial project and replaced with Tailwind equivs, it got all but a few cases right That was gemini-cli, I could see some mistakes on trial run so created a GEMINI.md with system prompt and p

Unnecessarily critical take on a quality write-up Much of the criticism of AI on HN feels driven by devs who have not fully ingested what is going with MCP, tools etc. right now as not looked deeper than making API calls to an LLM

It's moving very fast: https://elevenlabs.io/ https://layercode.com/ ( https://x.com/uselayercode has demos) Have you used the live mode on the Gemini App (or stream on AI Studio)?

That's likely because OG devs have been seeing the hallucination stuff, unpredicability etc. and questioning how that fits with their carefully curated perfect system What blocked me initially was watching NDA'd demos a year or tw

It's very different to blockchain hype I had similar skepticism initially, but I would recommend you dip toe in water on it before making judgement The conversational/voice AI tech now dropping + the current LLMs + MCP/tools&

Migration to fly.io is simple enough ... it is much closer to the original Heroku both technically and as company (if you ever need to contact them)

That is different things though -- you can replace functions with AI tech without needing AI to write all the code and that is happening in a big way right now -- Krishna was talking about reducing customer facing roles by around 30% over 5
