Love Textra. Simple does what it supposed to and has per contact color coding for messages, can block numbers and set delayed outgoing messages per contact too. Displays MMS, pictures adnd reactions for Apple as expected.

I hate that especially on github and reddit. I don't want your half asssed shitty implementation of code search with difference hot keys to do what I expect it to do.

since coding a whole game in assembly indicates deep understanding of what you’re doing, whereas the problem with vibe coding is that it requires only the shallowest understanding.

Yes, that was indeed my point. That and being, who else really can understand the assembly coded game, compared to who can understand the AI written vibe coded app. The Dev who wrote it in assembly certainly understands it and a lot. The person who vibe coded an app...probably doesn't understand most of it.

Yes, it does. Sure it works, but at what cost to security and actual human understanding?? RollerCoaster Tycoon works and I'm not saying its insecure or vibe coded, but it's written in friggen assembly!

The problem isn't the vibecoding inherently, it's the people that are doing it. Vibecoding just enables them to exist.

They have no concept of what it means to produce general software for actual users using different setups. They generally have little patience and will abandon their projects very quickly. They are completely reliant on the models to fix any problems (or add features), so anything that, for whatever reason, a model can't fix will remain broken.

Look at this vibe coded app and thread on reddit for just one example https://old.reddit.com/r/selfhosted/comments/1rckopd/huntarr_your_passwords_and_your_entire_arr_stacks/

Was that vibe coded tool used correctly? Done, does not mean good, or safe, or even usable.

Go-dAmn Sachs is wrong often, but in this I think they're on point. Learned from the Crypto insanity.

And so enshrined is that final nail in the enshitiffication coffin that was Reddit. I give it 3mo before Spez leaves Reddit to focus on [whatever].

[-] Penguincoder@beehaw.org 75 points 2 years ago

Well that's certainly a war crime. Wonder if the rest of the world will look the other way on this too.

[-] Penguincoder@beehaw.org 62 points 2 years ago

I think that question is definitely a worthy cause, but entirely misplaced. As others said, they donated to Beehaw not to some other foundation or charity. Rainy day fund is better than an oh shit, we're broke moment. I am extremely grateful to those who have and continue to donate towards Beehaw's Cause. We need to make sure that money is used, when needed, as expected.

Let it ride.

Hey man why you talking bout me....

J/K. Thank you for the kind words. I really am happy to be able to help out here for a lot of reasons. I understand the risk, heavily, but I appreciate the trust you and the other admins have placed in me. I hoped I have shown it to be a correct decision. I want to do my best for Beehaw and what is the best. I won't say everything I do is right or the correct thing, but I normally have a reason for it.

Thank you kindly; genuinely happy to help and want to keep doing so.

[-] Penguincoder@beehaw.org 59 points 2 years ago

Absolutely will cause a lot more spam to go through. But why is that the custom written moderators tool/bot fault? Why isn't Reddit the company doing more to stop or combat spam/bots? Why keep doing their job for them, for free?? If it's so damn useful (and BotDefense is), then Reddit should be doing it, or I don't know pay for that service?!

[-] Penguincoder@beehaw.org 82 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

WOW.

I can't speak for the other admins; but this part:

Beehaw admins look out for us by cutting off instances

Isn't really a matter of us looking out for anyone else, except Beehaw really. It's us not wanting to deal with that crap and what it involves, either. Literally be nice. They weren't being nice, they don't fit the ethos here.
