@championswimmer I thought the same but maybe it's a trust issue, in the way where who says you or I are trusted to sign off on some code? Maybe trusting AI could become akin to trusting an experienced developer based on empirical evidence of their ability to catch bugs, security flaws, etc.

If you suck at reading you might struggle with something that I've only recently figured out..

Start reading whole sentences at a time and then try to understand what the sentences means only after you've read them, rather than doing real-time decoding or jumping the gun.

I think PWAs aren't common enough and that's because a developer can publish one and then eventually stop paying for the domain which breaks the app.

Alternatively what if we went with a "fork-to-own" model where the PWAs are self-hosted.. "fork it to make it yours".

When you're dealing with vanilla css there can be some friction with naming the class names and finding where those class names are located.

But if you've programmed for a while you may be able to name and find JS functions somewhat easily..

I think you can take the same approach with CSS class names. By focusing on units of UI being modules rather than a hierarchical structure that must cascade correctly I believe it may be easier to create and manage CSS.

Alternatively you could use Tailwind and the styles are inline but I wanted to find an alternative for the fun of it and I believe this might be the aim of CSS Modules.

The idea isn't to make every element a module, it's more like.. identify a section of the UI and give that a good name and then the immediate children of that are given anything trivial akin to function variables, and the deeper you go the oscillation between module elements and trivial elements continues.

brain dump over

@atmoio Could it be that fable is what should be the average software quality and the awe we're seeing is the raising of expectations to a quality coverage level that's hard to attain before using AI?

I would be very interested in taking a look at the code!

@MYOB I cancelled my account via support months ago. I've tried reaching out over email and DMs.

Please stop charging me and refund my last few payments..

Creating high fidelity designs can take some time, and too low fidelity can sometimes not be enough.

Going for a mixed fidelity approach is a good balance.

@disco_lu one could say it's a piece of toast

An analogy I thought of earlier for AI is that it's a train and coding manually is driving a car.. the people on the train aren't any better than the people driving and vice versa.

Sometimes we've just got to be places and sometimes we need to take detours.

@kylethacker I recently started playing around with css variables to store hue & saturation for HSL but change lightness on the fly instead of having a limited palette but also makes it easy to change up the palette based on just those two first values:

@peduarte Raycast OS next? what is an os if not an application launcher?

@paytondev I feel like this is the first physical product I've seen of AI that actually makes sense.. AI is high speed transportation of information and the point of books is exactly that.

I do think it's a bubble tho
