  • Out of the box yes this is true, but:

    1. Custom instructions go a long way
    2. Review the code yourself, tell it what to fix, and it will fix it. For me it often takes like 5 rounds of this before the code is fully polished to the point I'm proud of it. And you know what? It's still MULTIPLE times faster than typing code by hand. And at least for me, the quality is higher, because I have 12 different agents that review the work too and they catch additional issues that even I missed.

    If you or others ship shitty code don't blame the LLM, the issue is entirely the engineer using it wrong

  • Skill issue tbh

  • It means that you created the code via natural language instructions to an LLM as opposed to typing by hand. You still need to verify its work, review and understand the code to at least some extent, and go through many iterations before it's production ready.

    Some people create vibeslop without looking at the code at all which is fine for a throwaway hobby project or personal tools but it will very quickly turn into unmaintainable garbage if you don't guide the architecture, redirect away from bad approaches, review the code carefully and make the LLM fix any issues, ensure proper testing, and periodically refactor and improve code quality. If that sounds like hard work then that's because it is, doing a good job with agentic accelerated engineering is hard work, but you can still build 2x-5x faster at the same quality level than if you typed it by hand. And that's with current models, they're only getting better

  • To be fair WhatsApp is also pretty bad. Telegram used to be the gold standard but they've been making it more and more crappy for the last few years

  • Here's a list I made last time I tried it. Might not all still be true!

    • Signal accounts are tied to a phone number, which is dumb and limiting. You can't contact someone by username only (or let someone contact you without giving them your phone number), nor can you have multiple phone numbers (I have a work phone and personal phone).
    • Signal has no polls or pinned messages.
    • No cloud chats comes with a few disadvantages e.g. no global search across all chat history.
    • No cloud media storage means you only can keep as much as you can fit on your device, whereas in telegram i can still look at pictures sent to me a decade ago.
    • No bot api, which most people probably don't care about but sucks for me cos I regularly make telegram bots to improve my experience and for fun.
    • Signal also has no custom themes but that's kinda meh.
    • Signal has no silent or scheduled messages, and editing/deleting a messages is time-limited (and beta).
    • Pretty sure telegram has better emoji reactions and animated gifs etc though not sure.

  • That's a ridiculously low bar, I wouldn't wish the default texting app on my worst enemy

  • My friends and I would love to switch to Signal but every time we try it we just find that the app isn't very nice to use and a lot of functionality we have come to take for granted is missing. Has it improved recently or is that still the case?

  • Personally as long as I'm not contributing to their wealth in some way I don't think it really matters what the CEO of the company that makes a product does. I'm mostly just going to use the best product for me. Now there is an argument that simply by using it I'm contributing to their usage numbers which helps them, and that's definitely true for social media platforms because of the network effect (which is why I stay off of the corporate ones), but it's less true of other products. In fact if i use an ad-supported product but block the ads I'm likely costing them more than I am a benefit.

    It's also a spectrum rather than black and white: every medium or larger tech company, especially if american due to the deregulated and in many cases openly corrupt capitalism, is going to do evil things for profit and be both run and owned by evil people/corporations. But their level of danger to global society varies. Musk is extremely dangerous because of his active campaign to bring fascism and nationalism to power in Europe, which is why x.com is blocked in my house at a DNS level. Other billionaires are dangerous too but they're not all equal.
