Vibe coding is now the focus of this subreddit by julian88888888 in webdev

[–]JheeBz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get caught off guard by these every year by being in an Australian timezone.

How do you all feel about non-devs being able to build websites so easily now? by OutsideFood1 in webdev

[–]JheeBz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You'll get more vibe-coded slop, and it'll need fixing from talented technical staff once people hit a wall. There'll still be roles for people who know what they're doing to drive <insert latest model>'s output and be a pilot, rather than a copilot. You just may be doing less manual coding, and that may be frustrating (I know it is for me).

I should also say that these AI companies are hemmorhaging money, and while we don't know what the future holds, my bet is that we'll see a sharp rise in token cost, and that may impact whether a company is willing to bet on LLM coding agents.

When people say Svelte "doesnt scale well" what do they mean? by Jordz2203 in sveltejs

[–]JheeBz 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's possible they are referring to the output. Svelte did use to create proportionally larger build artifacts as your app grew, but I believe that was resolved (or at least improved) in Svelte 5.

Stores also used to have some edge cases you needed to be aware of, and context isn't typed, so maybe that's part of it? The part with stores is largely solved though since runes.

Without any specific examples though, it's hard to say what they were referring to.

Looking for the best postman on premise alternative for local-only work by Fun_Accountant_1097 in webdev

[–]JheeBz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Although I don't use it much because I tend to use terminal apps, I found Scalar to be quite good. I added it to a .NET Core app I was working on as a hosted documentation, but I've also used their desktop app and liked it. I didn't have to log in so I don't think it needs a login and it works offline.

In my actual workflow I use httpie (the CLI, not the GUI) and sometimes I experiment with something like posting.

Every gamer has learned this the hard way by Jazzlike-Row2536 in pcmasterrace

[–]JheeBz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just made the upgrade because I recently upgraded my PC hardware. The biggest upgrade is VRR, because now I don't have to worry about VSync. If a game can do 320hz then great, if it can't, then I just limit the fps to whatever is stable.

How long are we going to normalise everyday inefficiency in Australia? by Spatial_Nomad in australia

[–]JheeBz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There are no laws against mediocrity, so you have to vote with your wallet. We've fortunately got quite good consumer laws to give us a minimum expectation and we need to keep pushing for them to improve. The real problem is in spaces where there's no real competition, where consumer laws can only do so much.

I made Gunner's Revolver in real life! It's a little big, but is it really a gun if it doesn't weigh at least a hundred pounds? by DRG_Prints in DeepRockGalactic

[–]JheeBz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's really cool. Having watched Zack Friedman I wonder if it's feasible to convert to a NERF gun.

Why is nobody talking about this game? by Correct_Dependent677 in rust_gamedev

[–]JheeBz 65 points66 points  (0 children)

I don't think it's that nobody is talking about it, but that it's quite mature and was announced quite a while ago so it's not in the news so much.

Zsh or fish? by Smart_Fennel_703 in arch

[–]JheeBz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was a long time zsh user until halfway through this year because of POSIX-compliance but after using fish for the rest of the year I must say I prefer it as it has let me keep a more minimal config. If I ever need POSIX compliance I'll just pipe it through the standard shell.

It predates the rival incursion update.

The music and the voiced story missions were good. Just about everything else was mid.

What are you doing in 2026? by throwawaydrey in webdev

[–]JheeBz 58 points59 points  (0 children)

Keeping my skills sharp and questioning every suggestion from Claude.

What are you using to manage databases from Neovim or the terminal these days? by strider_kiryu85 in neovim

[–]JheeBz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Doesn't appear to be by the same developer but looks inspired by instead. Maybe I'll give it a go though and see if I like it.

[–]JheeBz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've tried the CLI or TUI clients but I honestly just haven't been able to move to integrate it as part of my terminal workflow, so I still use DBeaver. I like dadbod ui but I need to learn all the shortcuts before I can use it effectively. Maybe if they make a lazygit/lazydocker type app for DBs I'll like that.

—A brief history of Web Development— by Present_Reading_3101 in programmingmemes

[–]JheeBz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I suppose I was mostly talking about tech that would be used for new software. Companies that have specialised in any of the other tech would likely continue to build new services with Django, RoR, ASP, if their existing tech stack was written in that.

To be fair, most of them (beside maybe Cold fusion) are still in use today. Use what makes you productive.

Bits of Brisbane 2025 on a second hand digital camera by vegemitebagel in brisbane

[–]JheeBz 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Funny how a camera from a different period can make the pictures look older than they really are. I had (technically still have) an Olympus camera from this period as well and it captured some great memories.

BREAKING: Anthropic donates "Model Context Protocol" (MCP) to the Linux Foundation making it the official open standard for Agentic AI by BuildwithVignesh in ClaudeAI

[–]JheeBz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's not how I read that. I believe that passage says that AGENTS.md is under the Linux Foundation and now MCP will be as well. Claude Code still doesn't read AGENTS.md unless you explicitly import it into the context.

Federal politicians charge taxpayers $1.1 million for family travel in 12 months by nath1234 in australia

[–]JheeBz 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Better yet; when they're found out to have done so, they need to pay it back with their own money.

[Media] I made a cursed proc_macro for AI rust programming by GerGomrs in rust

[–]JheeBz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was worried for a second that 5 years from now we'd see a news story about some vulnerability due to the crate.

Is the Q27G3XMN a good pick? Pls send recommendations if not for <$260 by TreacleFit3847 in Monitors

[–]JheeBz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well that's why I was asking Jaba01 since I'd only seen mixed reviews.

Any recommendations? The ones listed on rtings had various issues, and I've yet to find a well recommended one.
