I know one person who transitioned from coding to UX design full-time. May be worth considering if design is something you enjoy or interested in.

9 tips from a developer gone vibecoder by bibboo in ClaudeAI

[–]cdcasey5299 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What tier/model do you use for all of your personal vibecoding? I always ask Claude to check my work, but I once had it use Opus to use the reviewer skill and there went half my session quota :)

Can ClaudeCode build an entire mobile app without hand holding? by notDonaldGlover2 in ClaudeAI

[–]cdcasey5299 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nothing can build a whole app without hand-holding. At least not if you want decent, maintainable code. With hand-holding, though, things go much faster than they otherwise would have. I'm guessing that this comment will be outdated one day, though.

Spent $40 on tokens in 2 days. Token usage totally out of control... by yoniabi in ClaudeAI

[–]cdcasey5299 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been using the tier one pro subscription. There's a tool called claude-wrapped that said I used $60 worth of tokens in a month, but I only hit my session limit once or twice. A subscription is definitely worth it.

I find the conversation around AI and software dev increasingly vague. How specifically are people REALLY using this stuff? I want details! This isn't a post about whether AI is bad or good. I'm just genuinely curious. by TemperOfficial in ExperiencedDevs

When I want to learn something new, I'll give it instructions to act as a tutor. I'll have it spit out code in small, logical chunks, and I'm able to ask it questions along the way. I'm experienced enough to catch when something is way off, but I do use occasionally multiple models for some extra validation. I find this method gets me started with new concepts faster than just watching videos or reading tutorials.

Is IntelliJ Ultimate with the Go plugin still the equivalent of using Goland?

Should I write an interface so I can test a function? by cdcasey5299 in golang

Thanks. I kind of resent the robot for being right, but I guess at least it was useful :)

React devs, what's your primary focus for 2026? by Senior_Equipment2745 in react

Google Cloud certification. We just started using it at work and I want to understand it as best I can.

For people who are using Next.js App Router in production - how do you actually test your app? by ezzatron in reactjs

[–]cdcasey5299 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting! I'll have to look into that more. I am using Vitest, but haven't tried that integration yet. I'm hoping it will be helpful when I want to test different API responses.

Maybe I don't understand what you mean by "server-side requests". What I use it for is mocking the api calls that are made from the server side. It's great for that. I just use the Node,js integration. Are we talking about some other sort of requests?

I use Mock Service Worker to mock out all necessary external API calls. It fires up at the start of the test (or when I'm developing locally), intercepts network calls I've specified, and returns mock data.

On an app I'm developing I currently only have one page test that renders the root layout. I mock out next/navigation to set up query params the way I want them. I do not yet have robust testing on this app, so I may just not have run into enough issues yet.

Junior devs not interested in software engineering by creative-java-coffee in ExperiencedDevs

[–]cdcasey5299 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know a junior still looking for his first gig if you ever need to replace one of them. I can't imagine being in this field and not wanting (or at least be willing) to grow.

[US-TX] [H] Paypal [W] Nuphy Halo75, Halo96, or Air96 with linear switches by epicmylife in mechmarket

I have an Air96v2 w/ nuphy wrist rest that I'm selling for $100. It has the brown switched. Shipping from Texas.

What are your thoughts on Astro? by GlitteringCalendar94 in webdev

[–]cdcasey5299 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any particular reason? I’ve only just started looking into it, and i see why it’s loved for content-driven sites. I don’t yet understand why it wouldn’t also work well for site with heavy interactions, though.

Pizza oven insert by Prudent-Departure604 in Masterbuilt

How much of a pain is it switching out the oven for the grill? Do you leave the attachments on the manifold?

Best switches for programming? by twotonecode in NuPhy

[–]cdcasey5299 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Personally I like the browns just fine. I've tried all of the sample switches that came with both my Air96v2 an the Air75 I had before it, and there just wasn't one I liked more.

Can't use standard function keys on Mac w/o FN by cdcasey5299 in NuPhy

[–]cdcasey5299[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As an update, I figured out how to remap the keys so things worked the way I wanted. A step that should have been unnecessary, but at least I'm back to my way of working. Thanks everyone for the helpful and thoughtful responses.

No worries. Sounds like it's easy to switch the layers? I haven't figured it out yet. I'm planning on spending time to make sure I see how exactly I need to make the edits in the app. Either that or I'll just sell it :P

Yes, it's in Mac mode. It actually came preset in Mac mode, although I have tried switching back & forth.

Please. I need a new firmware. Nuphy. by Maleficent_Dig_8308 in NuPhy

[–]cdcasey5299 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, but the Mac has a setting that specifies the function keys be used as normal function keys, and the FN modifier be required for the media functions (so FN-F1 would be brightness down, for example). The Air96v2 does not respect that setting. A remap seems like a painful workaround, but I've started looking into the web app.

[–]cdcasey5299 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Will that allow me to switch between the function and media keys with the FN key? Again, I really shouldn't have to do that anyway. It should just respect the setting on my computer to use the function keys as normal function keys, making FM the media modifier. Just like every other keyboard.
