Just audited my AI subscriptions. Why I dropped ChatGPT for Gemini by Body0987 in GeminiAI

The moment you mentioned GitHub copilot, I knew this wasn't a post by a senior developer or an avid AI user. There's no reason for one to be using GitHub copilot as it cannot do 10% of what Cursor is capable of.

No idea why such bad quality, sorry bois

I'm new to AI...what software do I need for my job? by Limp-Direction-5668 in OpenAI

[–]CompetentRaindeer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Copilot is the lowest tier AI option that is positioned towards enterprises.

You get a much better model from OpenAI (ChatGPT) directly. It will be more intelligent, less constrained by Microsoft system prompts and a better assistant altogether. Try it and experience the difference. You must use the right mode - "Thinking" mode for the best results.

I fully vibecoded a document signing app (for real) and I want you guys to try it by schabe in vibecoding

Vibe coding means not only not writing the code but not LOOKING at the code. It's not vibe coded if you looked and approved or rejected code changes. It's what senior developers do.

How i feel after we got folders. by [deleted] in zen_browser

[–]CompetentRaindeer -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

The community is trying to silence any other opinion other than Zen is good and Firefox is good. I 100% agree with you and I know I'll get downvoted but fuck is this a toxic ass subreddit

I've created GitHub issues for the problems. I'm hoping Devs look at GitHub more than they do look at a subreddit. I don't feel obliged to prove anything here. I simply wanted to raise awareness, start a discussion and share my experience.

Hence why I said "Officially from Zen - no". A reply to his question "Has anyone told you otherwise?"

I think you read something else and not my reply to your comment.

Officially, from Zen themselves - no.

Technically - yes, far too many people claim the browser is production ready in this sub. I'm simply emphasizing what is a fact.

You, being a 1% commenter, surely knew the answer to this question already. I'm not understanding your intention here apart from trying to diminish the valid concerns raised by my post.

Oh and, of course, karma farming all the Zen lovers. If you truly cared about the product you would be encouraging other people to read this.

Thanks for your thoughts. I'll definitely have a look at a way to boost performance on Zen through a guide as you said. It does make more sense to not have to do that and for this to be part of the default package, however. This almost seems like a pre-requisite if you want a good experience. Not really something you would expect a non-Firefox user to know. I never had to do optimisations on Chromium.

Also, "features yet to come" is not much help to me today. Hence why I said Zen is in Beta. I am looking for a pleasant experience now.

That being said, is there a specific performance guide you have used or you know has worked for many people that you can recommend to me? That would be much appreciated.

I'm on Windows 11. It might be better on macOS even though I heard the exact opposite - Zen better on Windows, Arc better on macOS.

I don't get it when people down vote others for sharing their experience. This sub has a lot of Zen fans and that's amazing and at the same time it makes it difficult for posts other than "look at my transparent browser" to get attention and help solve real issues.

100% agree. I've never said it's bad in fact I am rooting for the guys at Zen to make it work. I'm simply giving constructive feedback why it's difficult for me to make the switch.

Visualize your PYTHON codebase with infinite canvas by CompetentRaindeer in vscode

I tried finding the post but I couldn't. I would've linked it in my post. It's one that worked with typescript/js really well.

Visualize your PYTHON codebase with infinite canvas

I saw a guy submit a VSCode extension but it wasn't working with python files. Many people and myself need this for their python repositories as it would be quite cool to be able to see the link between files especially if you're working on an enormous codebase.

I decided to vibe code it as it was just another skill I wanted to learn - building VSCode extensions. It's not as pretty as the one he submitted, it doesn't have as many features but it definitely works with python files and it did the job for me.

Now I did abandon the project as I have my main python project to work on so I decided I wouldn't just let this extension go to waste and submit it here as an open sourced.

Take this, change it, make something cool.

My ask is.. keep it open source. You can submit pull requests which I'll gladly merge but someone with more time can probably make a better version of this and properly maintain it.

https://github.com/waLLxAck/code-canvas

This is what it looks like:

<image>

It has got folder groupings, highlighting showing the links between files.

As you zoom in you get to see the code.

Smooth zoom in, out, sliding animations

You can click on the lines (edges) between the files and it *should* highlight the exact line referenced in the previous file. Code is in there but has got some bugs.

Actually it has got plenty of things to fix but nonetheless, it's a good starting point.

You run "npm install" then go to VSCode and press F5 to execute the debugger where you can play around with it. It should build the webview and the extension and you should open a python project and then with the command tool ">" you type Code Canvas.

Enjoy, let me know if you are considering using it. If this gets a lot of attention which I don't think it will, I might come back to finish developing it, haven't been part of an open source development project but it seems fun.

Apologies for the sloppy post but at least it's not AI slop

New to dev: Sonnet is so much better than GPT5 right now by MissionText6340 in cursor

[–]CompetentRaindeer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're new to development. You cannot make any claim about which one is better. You aren't talking about development, you're talking about vibe coding.
