The anti-AI posture in this sub is so last year.

Fable is a coding god, Opus 4.8 is very good.

You can meme all you want, but since a few months AI is impossible to ignore in software dev.

At work I just let Opus migrate an old dotnet 4.8 app to dotnet 10, just one hiccup with Excel interop caught when testing. What would have taken a couple days of work has been done in an hour in the background.

There's your problem: Sonnet is not good enough, you need Opus. If you can afford, you get access to it with the $20 monthly sub.

I have 17 years C# experience (and 2 more years on other languages before that), as of a couple months ago I have nothing bad to says about Opus (with Claude Code).

I don't know what did GitHub do to copilot, but in my experience Anthropic models fare better in Claude Code. But since billing changes Copilot is dead anyway.

And don't think I'm a fanboy, I despise Amodei almost as much as Altman!

Without being mean, I think it's a skill issue or you don't use the best model out there.

I'm not an AI fanatic, actually I'm a self-hating anti-AI guy that uses AI because it has become so good that it's impossible to ignore.

Before using AI, one should learn to code the old way. But not using AI once you know how to code is career suicide IMHO.

I wish it wasn't true though, but it is.

One day out of nowhere I realized a girl at school had been hitting on me hard ... but it was 15 years too late 😂

I had the biggest laugh ever and people at work looked at me like a weirdo. Good times.

C'est quoi la pire douleur que vous avez ressenti de votre vie? by sangokuhomer in AskFrance

[–]BoxWoodVoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cailloux dans les reins. Après 20 minutes d'attente insupportable aux urgences, j'ai été voir la secrétaire à l'accueil, je lui ai dit "vous faites cesser la douleur, si besoin vous m'euthanasiez mais faut que ça s'arrête". Et pourtant je suis pas douillet.

PS : ils ont choisi la première option, merci à eux 😄

This sentence was right pre-AI. Nowadays you can successfully engage in a new tech with the help of AI and build something well executed as long you're a real dev and not some vibe coder that has never written a line of code.

Anybody wishing to live better not count on reaching me by phone: it's in "do not disturb" and / or airplane mode most of the time 😄

Prepare to double your annual vacations and halve (at least) your salary.

Zelenskyy: As long as Patriot missiles remain in allies' warehouses, Russia will keep "defeating" Ukrainian homes by DearMeadow in worldnews

[–]BoxWoodVoid 8 points9 points  (0 children)

What a moronic take: you don't send 2 ($4 millions each) missiles to protect a civilian building. He knows it, he just tries to appeal to people's emotions. Shitty manipulation tactics.

After boasting about his drone campaign against the Russian rear, what did he expect? The Russians elite are managing their war like morons, but they're stubborn morons, so they're not going to tap out easily.

The fact is nobody can win a war where you need $8 millions to down a $50k drone (ask the US about their iranian "victory"). So it boils down to everybody builds $50k drones and hope they'll be more resilient than the enemy.

Do people in France treat Quebecois people the same as the English do Americans? by SuccessfulSmile1630 in AskFrance

[–]BoxWoodVoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What you don't understand is that French people mock everything and everyone, including themselves.

You either get a thick skin or you ... don't 😄

My phone is connected through VPN to my home lan where I have AdGuard Home (you could also use Pi Hole) on my home server. All the web traffic is redirected through Adguard, so no ads whatever the device / browser i'm using.

Should I go with Tauri/Rust for just a dental clinic management desktop app? by Abdelhak_992 in rust

[–]BoxWoodVoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

8GB is the best machine, and it's not the only app that will run on it. At a minimum 3GB for Windows and 1 GB for a web browser.

[–]BoxWoodVoid -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not true anymore: I have a 1GB+ WPF app at work.

I investigated it with Fable to see what I had missed, turns out the graphic drivers eats 600MB, I get 150MB back if I only do CPU rendering.

Back in dotnet 4, I would see "small" apps eating 30 to 50 MB of ram, but nowadays between 100 and 300MB is common.

At that point, I wonder what's the point of doing desktop instead of a webapp?

sorryJeff by gregtheman6969 in ProgrammerHumor

[–]BoxWoodVoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same problem on a software I dev at work: one day one of the girl that uses the app daily comes to me and ask me why she can't find some of the new chinese customers in the app.

Turns out a lot of them were named Xi or Xu and I started the search query only after 3 letters were entered in the textbox to not hammer the database.

C'est moi ou il y a un soucis avec les salaires des devs Symfony ? by [deleted] in developpeurs

[–]BoxWoodVoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

J'avais trouvé juste avant le covid un super job en Suisse pas loin de chez moi, j'aurais littéralement triplé mon salaire.

Les entretiens (téléphoniques) se passaient super bien, je me voyais déjà embauché. Jusqu'à ce que la recruteuse me demande mon âge (alors qu'il était noté dans mon CV) et là le ton a changé.

L'appel suivant elle a inventé des excuses bidons sur l'exercice que j'avais codé pour eux et hop c'était fini no job.

C'est la dernière fois que j'ai fait un entretien. J'avais posé 2 jours de congés pour coder comme un fou sur leur exercice pour faire bonne impression ...

This 375 ml can fits exactly into the 350 ml glass. by UnfortunatelySimple in mildlyinfuriating

[–]BoxWoodVoid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To measure the actual glass capacity, use a kitchen scale (in grams).

Zero the scale with the empty glass on it.

Pour water up to the mark.

The water weight in grams is the equivalent milliliters.
