This is basically why I buy the tech dip. When you pay for software, you pay for infrastructure, expertise, QA, consumer relations, having staff on call, etc. It was always possible to replace enterprise software by 2 guys coding a product in 6 months, but you still need everything around the code before serious clients will want to work with you, and at that point you're a regular software company. All these vibe coded products are one untested push away from getting dropped.

This is exactly right.

You know what's funny, less than a week ago I signed up for Basecamp.

Could I have asked Codex/Claude to whip me up a Basecamp clone with the exact features I want?

Of course. Do I want to deal with managing that codebase, even with AI? No.

The problem has been solved and the $15/mo. is well worth the time I will save not having to deal with managing that codebase and can instead focus my attention on things that bring in revenue.


Apples and oranges. Derailing an argument with tangential topics will never cease to piss me off.

I just thought they were raising an interesting fact. It's not like "lol antivaxxers" was much of an "argument" to derail anyway.

I'll have to revise my original comment to say: "don't refrigerate, ferment, can, cure, dry, brine, pickle..."

What's surprising is how nonchalantly people like you suggest victims should just surrender and leave. Exactly the same thing was told to Ukrainians after the invasion. The fucking audacity you people have is staggering.

The audacity you have to encourage them to die for nothing is what's staggering.

I'm not encouraging anything. I'm not the one putting onerous on the victims. Open a dictionary, if you don't know what "audacity" means.

Yes, you are basically encouraging those affected to stay where they are, effectively to just die where they are. You are among the same people who asked the Jews during the Holocaust to stay where they were, to not leave the country, effectively leading to their mass murder.

Yes, one stardust's inherited company gets bailed out by their dad's friend, the other loses their minimum wage job, slips on a sidewalk, and has their life ruined by medical debt. Ah, the wonders of the universe.

Which clanker generated this slop for you? I pasted the first 2 lines of this post into the free Gemini version and got 3 out of 4 of these theories.

I just thought with my brain, sorry you didn't like what I wrote.

Another FOMO article. Bloomberg may as well start reporting on lottery winners.

A distributed power grid made out of PV panels, windmills, and local energy stores is far more resilient during armed conflict than a handful of large targets along with a supply chain necessary to keep them going.

The replies to his tweet look AI generated too. This is such cancer.

That's because Desert Storm was launched by people who remembered the Second World War. Current wars are started by draft dodgers.


I hope you're joking. This is such "Ukrainians are just Russians by a different name" logic. China, Belarus, and North Korea are deep in this conflict, so are all the European countries. There's no stalemate end to this war, only a temporary cease fire or the collapse of Russia.
