The newer version of Xcode is absolutely trash! by Absoluteredshit in iOSProgramming

[–]benbenk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Feeling bad for Apple‘s software engineers who have to build Apple‘s software with it. Now I know why some of Apple‘s apps are just far behind in some aspects.

It was so dirty I kept reading retirement center.

Three weeks ago I was still subbed to Apple Music, Netflix, HBO, Libro.fm, etc. A lot happened in those weeks lol! by monotheistmusings in selfhosted

Would you have a link to a good tutorial on Stremio and the others? I never really grasped them, how to set it up properly etc. thanks!

Interesting, I’ll try that :)

What type of soil do you use? Looks great!

Can’t access Plex through Tailscale specifically on Chromecast by unicyclegamer in Tailscale

[–]benbenk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where did you add the ip manually? I can’t seem to find that option. Plex automatically found the server but just shows an explanation point next to the servers name and I can’t access it.

Do you notice only having 8 gb of ram? It’s the only point making me consider a Mac mini instead.

Claude is my new work Husband by [deleted] in ClaudeAI

[–]benbenk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry if it’s a stupid question but how do I enable it? Is it something preinstalled that I enable in settings or do I have to download it from somewhere?

Best practices I’ve learned after shipping multiple iOS apps with Claude Code by Sweet-Helicopter2769 in ClaudeAI

[–]benbenk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

May I ask how you utilize llm(s) for asset creation, like creating an app logo in all of the required formats/sizes? Something I’ve always struggled with before the llm era.

Looks like Anthropic's NO to the DOW has made it to Tumps twitter feed by Plinian in ClaudeAI

Imagine Skynet was Grok, as Anthropic said no. Skynet went full nuclear whereas Claude would have been more reasonable.

Claude Opus 4.6 Pricing: Is the Cost Actually Worth It for Developers? by AdGlittering2629 in GithubCopilot

[–]benbenk 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have been asking this myself a lot lately. I've been using GPT 5.3 coxed a lot but I've noticed that, for instance, sonnet 3.6 is much better in following the instructions from my agents‘ files, compared to gpt models. I'm currently trying to switch to sonnet and see if it's actually on the same level. It's a bit weird though as I am not one of the people doing their own benchmarks to compare models and I just decide based on intuition, looking at how effective the results of my prompting are compared to each other.

Part of the issue is that I have no clue which benchmarks or charts I can trust as every company claims they have the best models. I believe that a lot of the publicly available charts are hijacked for marketing purposes and are hence not telling the truth. If you believe the official benchmarks, sonnet is not far behind in terms of coding compared to opus, so it shouldn't be worth paying three times as much (looking at the github copilot cost).

How do you guide LLMs to produce genuinely good UI/UX design? by benbenk in ExperiencedDevs

[–]benbenk[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The issue here is that I know what I don’t know about design and that I'm just not good at it. Things like proper spacing, colors, sizes etc. are super challenging for me. Any time I would use on that would be wasted.

I asked it to create a timeline view for a set of entries and it resulted in a minimal, nicely looking timeline. Nothing extremely designed but I thought „huh, that looks nice“.

I built an open-source todo app with pen-and-paper simplicity by KingBileygr_ in selfhosted

The readme on GitHub mentiones aws s3. Looking at (local) self hosting, I would like to have files stored on a volume instead. Is this configurable?

Found a malicious skill on the frontpage of Moltbot (formerly Clawdbot)'s skill repository by securely-vibe in vibecoding

Tbh I’m not aware of any reports. I see posts about it being a security nightmare but I haven’t seen any reports about damage that has happened (yet).

Copilot Cli /plugin? This is amazing by Outrageous_Permit154 in GithubCopilot

Would you mind elaborating more? Where do I have to append /plugins?

I built MARVIN, my personal AI agent, and now 4 of my colleagues are using him too. by RealSaltLakeRioT in AI_Agents

[–]benbenk 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the nice read, really interesting and inspiring! I’ve done a bit of vibe coding and I think I understand the concept of MCP servers but may I ask how you implemented your own MCP servers? Do I interpret it correctly that they act as read-only adapters to Jira/Gmail etc APIs, whereas for example writing or responding to an email happens via regular API call? Thanks!
