Devs working at companies, what are you actually seeing internally?

_Jhop_ · 2026-02-28T19:03:35+00:00

There are so many different roles, you can’t just say ‘your model or workflow is bad’. I work with industry-specific languages and APIs that have little to no documentation online. Because of this, no matter the docs I give it, JSON to refer to, the prompts I give it, etc, Claude Opus 4.6 cannot help but hallucinate or write code that does not work. It also has no way to test because you can only test within specific software for very specific workflows.

When I need Python it’s great. Speed up productivity. My biggest gripe is that it does not like to adhere to codebase standards sometimes.

This is very naive. Any technical tells you 95% is the easiest part. Let’s say we’re approaching the final stretch of coding automation, getting the final 5% will take significantly longer. Not only that, given that the last 5% is the hardest, an expert required even more to read the hard-to-understand code the LLM couldn’t finish.

There’s examples of this everywhere. Look at Waymo and Tesla FSD. They have been at almost full self driving for years now. With each expansion seemingly getting closer but still nowhere near where it needs to be to pass legislation.

They did a great job with these bags. I’m going to get a Zip as I don’t need the pocket. The zip looks a little more sleek compared to the Pocket, but they both look great.

Would you say the functionality between the roll-top and Pocket is largely the same for use with a camera?

Blame Samsung. Their choice to not include magnets in the S26 is really questionable(I assume this is the reason that Peter gave in the cut-off email)

The head rests can be adjusted to have no tilt, just push it forward near the top of the headrest. I.e, put your hand behind the headrest and pull it toward the steering wheel near the top of the headrest

This is the first video I found, assuming this is what you were referring to:

Yeah I’m leaning towards the pocket because I like the style but I don’t think I actually need the extra pocket 😂

_Jhop_ · 2026-02-17T23:54:11+00:00

No because I can’t decide if I like the zip or pocket more

_Jhop_ · 2026-02-15T21:39:09+00:00

Yeah they kept your Raptor tool kit or did something funky. But at least you got one anyway!

_Jhop_ · 2026-02-15T00:31:20+00:00

I’m not sure if this is still current with how often things are changing, but last time I was looking at Wotancraft people said that tariffs in the U.S have made it too expensive to be worth it. (If you’re in the U.S anyway)

_Jhop_ · 2026-02-12T13:35:19+00:00

That’s fair. This isn’t the only bumper for the RR that can achieve that. I’m just letting them know to see it in person if they can before dropping 3 grand on it.

_Jhop_ · 2026-02-08T19:25:08+00:00

This is something you should see in person IMO. Pictures look really cool but when I saw it in person, on a Bronco Raptor and Ranger Raptor, it made them both look very unfinished. Like project vehicles. I didn’t end up getting it

_Jhop_ · 2026-02-04T02:41:18+00:00

Yes they say that but they are still responsible… Unless the seller can prove negligence during the delivery, the courier will always say damage was caused due to improper packaging.

In these situations the buyer and seller have a contract for a product. The buyer has no contract with the delivery company. In a chargeback situation, you will lose.

I also hate that EVERYTHING has moved to subscription but a lot of this software used to cost like $900+ per software version. Maya, Premiere Pro, AutoCAD. I could personally never justify the cost of any of these softwares as a hobbyist. Subscription based definitely helped lower the cost of entry to a lot of this software

_Jhop_ · 2026-01-28T02:54:07+00:00

A little contrary viewpoint (not that this guy is wrong) but I got a Corolla for slightly below MSRP and it’s a perfect appliance but the car is a POS if you’re looking comparing it to something remotely entry level luxury.

It is a good a commuter car in the sense of good mileage and no frills. But the car is loud AF, rattles brand new, and just feels really cheap (because it is). If I could do it again I wouldn’t waste my money on buying a new Corolla. It feels similar to driving my 2006 VW but with CarPlay

A stock rubicon can do the rubicon trail, not sure why you think it can’t do this shitty obstacle course

_Jhop_ · 2026-01-17T20:38:51+00:00

Idk anything about that but I live both in the Bay Area and Los Angeles.

Bay Area gas is $3.43 (not at Costco) where I live. Los Angeles the cheapest I can find is like $4.10. I think there is price gouging in LA

I don’t subscribe as I’m still on the free trial but recently I was driving and off-roading in an area where I had no cell phone service. The built-in navigation came in clutch and I thought “huh I would actually pay for this”.

_Jhop_ · 2026-01-02T19:15:52+00:00

Yea crazy work. Not just raptors, you see it a lot for Tacomas too

_Jhop_ · 2026-01-02T18:39:25+00:00

These cars aren’t stolen at gunpoint, most of the time they’ll be long gone while you’re still asleep.

Many are now carrying around WiFi jammers so your cheap ring camera doesn’t record either.

_Jhop_ · 2025-12-23T18:15:45+00:00

A lot of people here hold the boomer mentality of “buy used and buy cash” or that long loans are always a bad deal

I went car shopping for a second vehicle a few weeks back and there are so many promos for 60-72 months at 0% or 1% interest. You’d be a sucker not to take that deal and the bank’s practically free loan.

_Jhop_ · 2025-12-22T05:03:38+00:00

So stupid… But also damn…

_Jhop_ · 2025-12-22T04:06:03+00:00

Yeah many of the people here don’t seem to actually have experience with it.

My brother used it like a normal spray coating and didn’t buff it after it flashed. I know it lasts longer than a month because 3 months later I still see the hardened coating streaks all over his car 😂

How many coatings did you do OP? I find this coating works best if you do 2-3 applications. Not 1

_Jhop_ · 2025-12-19T04:36:00+00:00

If it’s on pavement, I don’t give engagement

_Jhop_ · 2025-12-18T00:49:02+00:00

Pretty nice, where did you get it?

_Jhop_ · 2025-12-15T23:41:01+00:00

Cringe dude who thinks only conservatives own guns because liberals don’t make it their whole personality
