@ultrathinktrash For quick throwaway projects, then you can vibecode the whole thing, who cares? But if it’s supposed to be a serious product, then quality is important. Don’t be a slop coder. With AI you can now write high quality code fast, don’t get lazy and ship trash code you don’t even read

[Carl The Great @CoderCarl]

@ultrathinktrash I also use AI, but I use it to COLLABORATE, I don’t one-shot shit, I use as a speed-up and to find bugs , but don’t delegate the entire app. That’s how you end up with SLOP. Do what Mitchell Hashimoto does, use it to enhance quality, don’t ship slop where you don’t know the code

@MatrixAscender lol just listen to her voice you fucking faggot, does ANY real woman sound like that? You probably prefer trans anyway, don’t you? You like a little extra sausage in your buffet

@Lensar_dawn @Thollenshead Don’t, he posts engagement bait so he can shill scam coins

@GoldsteinBrooke lol keep telling yourself this, let’s see what DNA tests show. You’re 100% European, you just have a chip on your shoulders lol

@fhdlzp @Trajon_ @nsinghal211 @grok Indians also eat their own shit and wobble their heads idiotically when they talk. Chinese women are hotter too.

@dr_cusemakyahud @academic_la lol your profile photo is clearly AI and fake

@mijalbitton Single issue voters are the worst. Only give a fuck about Israel, move to Israel then

@apapswithnoname @Usa1Njs @EnzoJax1668 @hinkypunkie I shouldn’t be too mean to you. You don’t even have side-walks or proper public transport. Life is tough for you, I feel bad.

[Carl The Great @CoderCarl]

@ncphi @marcelpociot Exactly! Even the best models do this, and even if you try to tell it not to they still do it.

[Carl The Great @CoderCarl]

@ncphi @marcelpociot Yes, agree, but if a small refactor to an infrastructural/core class is required they often miss it, and instead pile on edge cases and hacks, and the code turns to mush incredibly quickly

[Carl The Great @CoderCarl]

@celesteanglm She’s trans bro, not a real female. Listen to her deep voice lmao

@penberg I never claimed C++ was as safe as Rust. I just said it’s not as hard as FUD would have you believe to write and ship a robust and decent C++ product. Such that it SHOULD be considered as well, it just outright dismissed by a bunch of smug Rust know-it-alls.

[Carl The Great @CoderCarl]

@penberg “Not defensible” lol - so won’t ACCEPT disagreement. Unbelievably smug and full of yourself. WE HAVE A PRODUCT WITH MILLIONS OF USERS. Our product is written in C++. It’s a GREAT product. Stop your condescension. You’re not always right. Let’s agree to disagree, stop being a brat

[Carl The Great @CoderCarl]

@penberg The trade-offs are worth it in our case. Our product has millions of users. We pass security audits with flying colors. Our product is fast and beautiful and cross platform.

If it’s not for you, cool. But don’t speak for everyone, nor act like your way is the only sensible way.

[Carl The Great @CoderCarl]

@penberg Ok man. In my case modern C++ gives me tools to avoid issues, and where not (rare), frontier AI models fill in the gaps. C++ also gives me things Rust cannot:
* Amazing compile-time programming support
* Reflection (via C++26)
* GUI (via Qt)
* Fast iteration/compile times

@rikiboiii_ Filipinos are such brain dead chimosos lol, mind your own business you idiotic crab mentality pieces of shit
