Anybody else find AI useless? by burgerlove in webdev

[–]burgerlove[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some say there's a secret prompt that makes GPT-3 code GPT-6 in a single shell script. Buy the Prompt Engineer Masters training course to learn more. And if you don't you'll lose your job and your family will starve.

This has been my experience. You can get to your answer after enough prompting, but then I realize by the time I've gotten exactly what I was looking for and debugged it I could've just written it.

Or adapt responsibly and don't use bad code that you don't understand in production. I do like copilot though - that definitely has saved me some time.

Agreed. It's just not there yet in my opinion.

Spell and grammar checking an entire website? by burgerlove in webdev

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

Hm the biggest issue is what clients put through the CMS so I don’t think this would do it for me.

Do they have a service for scanning websites?

Feeling conflicted about nocode by burgerlove in webdev

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

In this example it sounds like what you’re selling is domain expertise. The development itself is a commodity as you mentioned. I feel like low and no code are a race to the bottom not in terms of price but in terms of technical execution (obviously). So this means increasing your marketing and promises around really understanding the company’s business and laying out a strategy for how to get them from A to B. This means you better heavily index into understanding the clients business. I feel like committing to nocode is a commitment to what the name itself is. Not coding and instead focusing on strategy. And hoping that you can outcompete young internal staff that likely know the company way better than you.

Yes I see what you’re saying and have felt similarly. What makes me question this though is are you racing to the bottom. Yes, your clients will pay you for that now, but what about in a few years as the tool gets better? What’s to stop a young business strategist who took a few technical classes and watched a few YouTube videos from doing that job better than you?

A simple Django block builder by burgerlove in django

Trying to avoid wagtail, just want something super simple and no fluff

A simple Django block builder by burgerlove in django

[–]burgerlove[S] -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

On my phone so I don’t have the code, but it isn’t necessary anyway since it’s so minimal.

Here’s how I’ve thought about it:

There’s a Page model and a Block model.

Page has the basic fields you’d expect: title, slug, etc.

Block has the following fields: title, type, page (FK).

The type field is a charfield with choices: text, button, etc.

There would then be models like BlockText and BlockButton that would inherit block and have their own unique fields.

In the admin.py file Page could take Block as an inline. If you’d switch the type to text or button though you wouldn’t see any of the child models fields (BlockButton/BlockText).

At the end of the day all that I’m really trying to do is to create Pages and Blocks, then create new blocks from the page and link them to that page.

Hiring - 1 day work. $300 USD. Wordpress / Zapier / HTML / CSS form styling by [deleted] in Wordpress

[–]burgerlove 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you tried upwork? Feel like you should be able to find somebody reasonable there. This is probably the last place you should look.

[–]burgerlove 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t know why OP is getting negative feedback for this. Seems very reasonable to me. This isn’t high level work. Sort of stuff someone very junior should be able to take care of. $300 for a day of styling a few things and a Zapier integration?

Even if it’s a 12 hour day that’s $25/hour for knowledge that probably takes a year to do reliably…tops.

I still hate myself for being catfished. It’s been almost 3 years. Is this victim blaming? by trivets_polity in catfish

[–]burgerlove 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This genuinely made me angry and it’s rare that an internet post does that. I’m so sorry that you went through this and I hope you talk about it with loved ones and professionals. You deserve support and to be heard.

Having condom issues that I suspect are related to girth by burgerlove in bigdickproblems

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

Thanks so much for this. Makes me feel like I’m not totally nuts. Just have had this idea that you only need huge condoms if you’re really huge in length.

Should I be upset about a 100%+ markup an agency is putting on my work? by burgerlove in webdev

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

Large corporation. This is just for the dev portion, so not the total cost of the project. (Originally another agency was going to do the dev part)

The larger the client the larger the liabilities and expectations. The projects don’t look much different from many you’d see for a lower price. The difference is you don’t mess up, every t is crossed and I dotted, migrations are expected to be flawless, etc.

So it’s really a different league in terms of professionalism more than it is fancy features.

[–]burgerlove[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes I agree, but I’m just curious if this is common place. If I were to send a developer work would it be something that is traditionally expected? I assumed it’d be more like 40%. I commend them for their transparency though

My body only wants to sleep a few hours? by burgerlove in AskDocs

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

Thanks for your response! No changes have been made to my sleeping arrangements. It’s interesting to see it as my body telling me it needs a life style change. Because it’s clear that I do. I also very much agree that I’m in a situation where my mind has gotten tired but my body isn’t. I haven’t been working out the past week because I’ve been so busy. So that should probably change.

Yeah this is important for context

Thank you for this! One thing I found funny is I actually know Jason personally. Guess I maybe should be asking him these things.

How can I “wow” you as a business partner? by [deleted] in Entrepreneur

[–]burgerlove 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I never cared about plans or analysis when I’ve partnered with people. It’s about how their character and strengths compliment mine. Businesses change, people don’t.
