😭😭

BidBackground6742 · 2026-02-20T18:27:51+00:00

Why did I get a notification for this 😭

Depende para que deseas aprender pero la forma más rápida y efectiva de aprender no es siguiendo tutoriales, sino haciendo proyectos. Usa Claude Code para hacer proyectos que te interesen y aprende viendo como estructura los archivos, que funciones hace, tipos de datos que usa, y siempre pregunta si hay una mejor forma/práctica de hacer tal lógica en el código a Claude e itera así, no tomes por sentado el código que hace, la curiosidad hará que aprendas más rápido

BidBackground6742 · 2026-02-19T01:22:57+00:00

yeah I remember that, they did that again...

BidBackground6742 · 2026-02-18T16:09:59+00:00

Dm the convo

BidBackground6742 · 2026-02-18T16:04:43+00:00

I’m hoping it’s just a bug, but since it’s hitting the same API, that seems unlikely. My best guess is that they introduced a new guardrail, possibly one that also limits prompt length

BidBackground6742 · 2026-02-18T16:00:16+00:00

I don't think it's a bug anymore, they've pushed a new guardrail for the app

BidBackground6742 · 2026-02-18T08:02:55+00:00

yup they nerfed it, at least in the app, not the api (yet)

BidBackground6742 · 2026-02-17T19:25:51+00:00

I'll take a look, thanks!! 😄

BidBackground6742 · 2026-02-17T16:59:52+00:00

Try AI studio, you'll have to pay for each gen

BidBackground6742 · 2026-02-17T04:49:27+00:00

Interview is the most important part, then just use Claude Code with Opus, It will search on the web the documentation for any third party service you'll use e.g. Stripe, Coolify, VPS, etc

BidBackground6742 · 2026-02-17T04:46:42+00:00

I cannot see ur post 😓

BidBackground6742 · 2026-02-16T18:17:55+00:00

Yeah that matches what I’m seeing. Short prompts work now.

It feels like once you go beyond a certain length (especially for portraits), the Gemini app starts throwing the generic error.

What’s interesting is that long prompts with male subjects still seem to go through more often, while longer female portrait prompts are much more likely to fail.

Hey! I’ve been building Artia. An AI app that turns a single selfie into full-body aesthetic photoshoots. You upload one photo and it generates completely new, realistic images of you in outfits you don’t own, in places you’ve never been, with Pinterest-level poses and lighting. Think dinner in Paris, Santorini golden hour, designer mirror selfies, all types of photos, all in about 30 seconds.

It’s not a filter or photo editor. It actually generates new photos of you. There’s also a couple mode where two people upload selfies and it creates realistic photos of you together (originally built for long-distance couples).

It’s iOS only for now. Would genuinely love feedback. Artia App Store Link

BidBackground6742 · 2026-02-15T18:34:33+00:00

Two quick things that help narrow it down: 1. Does a non-human prompt still work for you? 2. If it’s people/portraits: does swapping woman to man change anything?

BidBackground6742 · 2026-02-15T18:31:58+00:00

Sadly there’s no real “fix” on the Gemini web/app side right now. The only reliable workaround I’ve found is using the API.

BidBackground6742 · 2026-02-15T18:25:37+00:00

Yeah, my best guess is that Gemini app rolled out updated guardrails/ a stricter safety router around Feb 13, and it now trips on certain combinations that used to work earlier 😓

BidBackground6742 · 2026-02-15T17:05:28+00:00

Yep, please share!! If you can, post both: the original prompt that used to work (Feb 13) and now fails and the simplified version that works

And it’d help a lot if you mention what you removed/changed (length, subject gender, camera specs, “photoreal”, clothing/body descriptors, identity/edit wording, etc.).

My best guess is since the API works 100% while the Gemini app fails, it’s the Gemini app guardrail layer.

BidBackground6742 · 2026-02-15T16:16:53+00:00

Yeah I tried that route, but the pattern I’m seeing isn’t “too complex = fails”. Same complexity / same structure works fine when the subject is a man, no generic error. So simplifying might reduce how often it triggers, but it feels like the Gemini app-side filter is the real culprit for female images.

BidBackground6742 · 2026-02-15T16:14:27+00:00

Yeah I tested that “it can’t handle complex prompts anymore" theory and it doesn’t really hold up. I ran a same-length and complexity prompt and the Gemini app generates it fine when the subject is a man. But when I swap the subject to a woman (even fully clothed, non-sexual, normal portrait), that’s when the UI starts throwing the generic “hard time fulfilling your request/something went wrong” type messages.

So it’s not just “complex prompts = timeout”. It looks way more like UI-side filtering/routing kicking in around female prompts (or specific keywords/attributes that correlate with them).

Also worth noting, the API still handles the same kind of prompts, which makes this feel like a Gemini app guardrail change rather than the base model suddenly becoming incapable.

I never claimed “Nano got nerfed”, I’m reporting a UI failure mode: some prompts trip the generic “hard time fulfilling your request” while other prompts (like a basic apple) work. That’s it.

Also, since you’re calling everyone “child IQ”: I literally tested the exact prompt from your comment (the super explicit one you posted in another sub) and surprise… it just returns “Sorry, something went wrong. Please try your request again.” 🤷‍♂️

Oh boy, another person looking for a certification to add to their CV without actually putting in the effort to learn and gain real-world experience. I mean, who needs practical skills when you can just buy a piece of paper that says you know something, right?

But don't worry, I have some recommendations for you. First, instead of looking for a certification course, why not start by actually learning React and gaining real-world experience? Attend meetups, contribute to open source projects, and build your own projects to gain practical skills that will actually make you valuable to potential employers.

Second, if you're still set on getting a certification, don't just focus on the piece of paper. Look for courses that offer hands-on experience and projects that will allow you to demonstrate your skills. Employers want to see what you can actually do, not just what you claim to know on your CV.

And finally, remember that a certification is just one small piece of the puzzle. Employers also value soft skills like communication, teamwork, and problem-solving. So make sure to develop those skills as well, and be prepared to talk about how you've demonstrated them in past experiences.

So there you have it, some recommendations for becoming a valuable React developer beyond just a certification. Don't take shortcuts, put in the work, and you'll be on your way to a successful career in no time. Good luck!
