So we are moving away from >1GB node_modules finally? Or is it too soon?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Its going to be 1GB node_modules handled by garbage ai code
ai is only good at doing smaller scripts but loosing connections and understandment in larger codebases, combined with people who cant program well (i mean not only coding but debugging... as well) also called vibe programmers its going to be a mess

if a product claims it has vibecoding: find an alternative!

I'm losing my will to live lately at an alarming rate.

I used to love IT, way back at the start of 00s.

Soon after the 10s started, I noticed bullshit trends replacing one another... like crypto or clouds or SaaS... but now with the AI I just feel alienated. Like we're just all going to hell, and I hate the first row seating.

At this point, I think it’s required to have a sort of alternate identity online and keeping anything private, photos of yourself and other information just offline. Except for government stuff, which requires your real identity.

I mean yeah, I selfhost everything, but I hate that i have to learn and support the most useless shit ever just to earn a living.

It used to be fun being a dev, now I'm just repeating the same warning phrases about technologies.
