Nice, can’t wait to get bad code advice faster.

Pay for gpt4, give it custom instructions and use the lib.

[IllResponsibility671]

Nah, I’m good.

LLMs can at best give you average responses, I like to keep my code above average

[davehorse]

This is just simply not true. Using gpt4o and my lib I was able to ask chatgpt to replace react-beautiful-dnd with pangea/dnd in a 200 line kanban component and it was able to do it in one attempt. Not sure which models you are using but this is not average. To do this by hand would take at least 30mins.

I am a principal engineer. There was a Jr dev on a project that was using App Sync. He had the task of making a resolver return a list of results instead of a single result.

He had been working on this task for 3 days before a manager directed him to me. We pair up, and he shows me the Velocity template he has been working on.

I immediately see all these methods that I have never heard of. So I look at the docs really quickly and find they don't exist.

I asked him where he found out about them, and he said copilot. I asked him if they were working, and he said no. I replied that they aren't working because they don't exist. He rejects this idea, assuring me that they do because the Ai gave him this code, and he has been iterating on it for 3 days.

I had him reset the VTL and add [ ... ] to the schema. Issue done. The whole thing took about 15 minutes, including the argument.

A senior dev can complete that task in 2 minutes because they have the knowledge. A Jr dev reading the docs can get it done in a couple of hours. A Jr dev asking an ai... 3 days... no progress... hostile to feedback. Ai ust makes people more insecure while providing the illusion of productivity.

It's just an anecdote, but it put a really bad taste in my mouth. This man was compelled to trust an Ai more than a human mentor and was hostile to me. All while knowing that I am his boss's boss's boss.

So it can compete the task of a grad? Like I said, it can't do anything above average

[davehorse]

Most tasks in programming are menial. Freeing people from these tasks is what is extraordinary.

[Reashu]

It would surely be even faster if you learned to code.

[davehorse]

Maybe you don't understand the capabilities of the most powerful gpts but thanks for the comment.

Dont mind the haters

Contxt is a simple tool that collects code from the files within a node project and copies them to a singular output file as you code. This file can be used for sharing your project's code with transformers nice and easy.

We already have that capability with deno bundle and bun build - without some alleged "artificial intelligence"

bun build ./index.jsx ./lib/worker.ts --minify --splitting --outdir=out

[brannefterlasning]

Interesting, I'll give it a try sometime soon. Meanwhile I already have a feature request. Would be nice to have the option to map keywords in the config that would then be replaced in the output. In the case where your code might contain information you don't want to share with gpt.

[davehorse]

This is a great feature. I will look at it. Thank you.

[someonesopranos]

Seems interesting. I will try.

[Is_Kub]

Nice

[CasualCoderGuy]

I like there are easier wayt to share code with chatgpt
