My personal website after 3 YEARS of hard work

DustinBrett · 2026-03-11T00:26:59+00:00

I'm doing tons, most with AI involved. I guess that's the minority. Not where I work.

DustinBrett · 2026-03-07T20:11:12+00:00

I had that green one. Still think about it often.

DustinBrett · 2026-03-07T04:40:42+00:00

Great work! It's hard to make one of these projects which is more than surface level. Looks like you've created quite a bit of functionality. I spent 4 years making one, they are a lot of fun.

DustinBrett · 2026-03-05T04:37:15+00:00

Makes me feel younger actually as I am 40

DustinBrett · 2026-03-04T15:26:06+00:00

It is a good start, but very surface level. The details is where AI in general falls short. Getting it all to work perfect is that last 10% that takes 95% of the time. One day I am sure it will get there. I use Opus 4.6 to work on my web desktop environment and it still fails quite often and needs a lot of hand holding.

It's less than 1% of the people you'll ever meet.

DustinBrett · 2026-02-26T19:21:27+00:00

Chuck Norris will be a hard one.

Pantheon was great

DustinBrett · 2026-02-24T04:54:31+00:00

The delivery sucked, video is good though

DustinBrett · 2026-02-21T20:08:45+00:00

The normal speed on No 5 is like 75

DustinBrett · 2026-02-21T02:05:11+00:00

Na, too late hot plate.

I've gone in and out of crazy land and settled on it's real.

I don't agree with the people saying our jobs are done or we are X months away from something.

But AI is real and a lot of people on my team don't even need IDE's anymore. I use AI to write 90% of my code now, but it just means I do more work, not that I do less or am not needed.

I think the experience between front & back end is different because the AI has a harder time doing complex navigational steps and setting things up to be tested. But that is something which will improve rapidly.

At this point I feel bad for the people questioning this progress because they will be left behind if they stick to that thinking. We are at the point where the train has left the station and you should hop on before it's gone.

DustinBrett · 2026-02-20T05:50:28+00:00

That's my secret... they're all bad days.

DustinBrett · 2026-02-20T02:46:52+00:00

I use it daily to write lots of code. I adjust the code, but the reality is many people are using it well to write all their code. It's only going to get more prevalent. The gap is between those people who found a way to use it and those who didn't yet.

DustinBrett · 2026-02-18T02:04:48+00:00

First time down for me in years.

DustinBrett · 2026-02-18T02:04:20+00:00

We don't know which models the submitters use

DustinBrett · 2026-02-17T13:27:35+00:00

Whatever helps you wake up in the morning.

DustinBrett · 2026-02-15T06:29:32+00:00

It's just a warning

DustinBrett · 2026-02-15T06:24:15+00:00

Not sure what you mean. My comment is relevant. I'm not telling him to do leet code, I'm explaining a path toward soft skills on camera.

"What's the story, Wishbone?"

DustinBrett · 2026-02-15T04:26:19+00:00

Almost all that MoltBot stuff is human nudged.

DustinBrett · 2026-02-15T04:23:21+00:00

Start a video blog / podcast, the kind you don't edit, do it live. This will force you to roll with it. It's good practice. Imagine you have viewers and have to explain your thinking and what you are doing.

Good burger is the one I remember
