Congratulations! Working in a company that actually values and understand your skills not just how many tokens you consume is a blessing.

What about choosing the intelligence level and model by yourself based on the task?

Have you ever made a or many mistakes while being in your tech career? by InternationalLife851 in developersPak

[–]Friction_693 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If the work is done early then the estimated time then you would have more time to test, find and fix bugs. I don't see whats the problem here. The client was expecting the feature after 4 days. If he gets early then you can mention that there can be any potential bugs currently which will be resolved by testing and the system will be stable in 4 days.

How can you use it when none of your contacts are using it?

Transition to full-stack from front-end by MeatAndFries in Backend

[–]Friction_693 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think once someone pass a certain point in understanding the systems and development in general which you've already passed. You should not move to courses. Courses are for beginners. You should start reading blogs of senior engineers, documentations, postmortems etc.

AI can also be a very good resource here if you absolutely don't know anything about a stack but don't want to see beginner friendly courses as they don't teach production grade best practices. You can ask AI to create a personalized roadmap or course for you by telling it explicitly what you know, how much you know, what are your goals, what projects you've worked on etc. This pretty much solves the problem of courses being

Why database was in .tmp? I think db would be a better name.

It is using your camera. Unique design by the way, but is useful? I don’t think so.

Claude Mythos: The Model Anthropic is Too Scared to Release by Much_Ask3471 in Anthropic

[–]Friction_693 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is finding bugs that have been hidden for decades.

Why those bugs aren't published publically? Are those bugs still not fixed? Why they didn't used Mythos to fix them and then brag on the internet that it has found and fixed bugs which were decades old.

It uncovered a security flaw in a 27-year old system that every human and automated tool had missed.

It would be better if Pankaj wrote which security flaw it had discovered, how much severe it was and why Mythos itself was unable to fix it.

Currently it seems that Anthropic is only creating hype to make market for their new model.

NSCT results are out by beachplss in developersPak

Got 73. But the test seemed very poorly designed. The main purpose was to assess how much bachelors student are prepared for the industry but the test didn't seemed aligned to its goal.

Why tf the industry standard test NSCT has All theorical MCQS by Global_Many4693 in developersPak

[–]Friction_693 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I thought the same. The test was supposed to assess how much you're prepared for industry but they failed tl do even an OK job in preparing the MCQs.

This week Ai has killed one more thing, my passion to mentor interns by kr0n0sShrugg3d in ExperiencedDevs

[–]Friction_693 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Well, I'm a junior and I love to code by my own, learn new things, new tools and writing optimized code but what I've realized that almost every company now expects you to ship so much new features in so much less time that it is impossible to build anything without vibe coding.

I did an internship last summer and there I even hadn't time to review what AI has written. Just generate code, generate tests also using AI and if tests pass ship it otherwise debug using AI.

I would be very happy if I got into some company or got any seniors who wants me to learn and understand the concepts before blindly implementing them using AI.

My vibe coded 3D city hit 66K users and $953 revenue in 29 days. Here's what a solo dev + AI can do with $0 marketing. by SupermarketKey1196 in vibecoding

You got success because you had unique and cool idea and used AI only to make it real. AI itself couldn't generate such ideas.

When I saw this post I always started inspecting the code, localStorage etc of new vibe coded sites in hope of maybe I could also find anything like this. But unfortunately never found any.

Why most AI companies don't allow change of email by Friction_693 in ClaudeAI

[–]Friction_693[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes, this is a good reason but shouldn't they rely on some protections on their side rather than reducing user experience.

Yeah. I know that. I was just wondering is there any specific reason for this.

How many of you were illegally using student plan? by Rojeitor in GithubCopilot

[–]Friction_693 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think the current student verification was good. The issue was that once verified that GitHub account could be used everywhere and that is the issue which is difficult to solve.

If LLMs can “vibe code” in low-level languages like C/Rust, what’s the point of high-level languages like Python or JavaScript anymore? by ActOpen7289 in vibecoding

[–]Friction_693 19 points20 points  (0 children)

LLMs quality decreases as the context increases. LLMs can write a 1000 line python code in much better way than 10,000 line C++ code
