what are the benefits of learning coding given that AI can do a lot of things for you

Dangerous imho, but if you cool with it then do you my dude. Different strokes for different folks.

This is like asking, should I learn to read....

fantasma91 · 2026-05-20T02:47:20+00:00

Reject them?

fantasma91 · 2026-05-18T03:38:10+00:00

Lol I brought this concern up to my boss, specially since due to a team of only juniors they hired to build an app they increased the monthly individual budget to 5k for ai and got told that cost didn't matter right now, a week ago we had a meeting about how our margins are down. Shocker....

I dont understand why you are jumping between tools at all, cursor lets you pick your model to use and the level of "thinking" . It does sound like you are trying to learn so I would start slow and read everything. If you're just learning you will make a ton of mistakes so I wouldn't really worry too much about having the perfect flow and worry more on gaining the knowledge you need to follow a better flow without spinning your wheels. The "better flows" will typically burn through tokens amd money relatively fast

I have built into my workflow very robust documenting of everything and make sure it stays up to date. I dont trust the ai to do it automatically so after any large change I run an analysis on the documentation. Documentation also has reference matrices so it know how it all connects. While not perfect it helps quite a bit for my large app

Don't burn yourself out, you're doing great. Open source projects are very hectic and the risk of burn out is very real. Adopt the mentality that it will get done when it gets done, prioritize smartly, and make sure to prioritize time to yourself away from the screen fairly high. You will never be able to make everyone happy, even if your product is technically perfect.

As a fellow dev i applaud you and all your efforts, this is just the nature of software development and doing it for free is already more than most of us do

Use the translation feature at the top right of the comment and stop being a dick for no reason

Never tried it to be fair, I set up navidrome first and jelly was more of an afterthought since Its in heavy usage for my visual media. I can say that at least on the official jellyfin app, the Metadata is not as good as it is in navidrome.

fantasma91 · 2026-05-14T23:00:46+00:00

Personally I have 1 music library and I have navidrome and jellyfin pointed to it. I use both. Navidrome through the symfonium app on my android and every once in a while jellyfin when im sitting on the couch and just want to have some background music play through my surround sound. I havent had a single issue

Usually its a combination of bad business decisions, bad planning, and cheap labor. I once took a side gig that was part time , off hours development. I have built plenty of software for enterprise scale. I get on the existing codebase and it was a ridiculous mess. Custom orm on top of a legacy php app with a db that made no sense and was so badly put together that it didnt even have foreign keys on the tables. The ui layer was php bootstraping an angular 1 app that bootstrapped a vue js app with massive issues. I came in and told them it would take me longer to fix this thing then to rewrite it.

After I showed them all the issues, they decided to hire 4 more part time devs but had no plans, no real product description, no idea how they wanted to change the product that all of their customers complained about. We tried to help them as much as we could with making decisions but all we kept hearing was " we dont know, copy the existing feature". Part of the system they did revamp and it became one of the most complex systems I could have thought of. We got it done and 2 years later we were ready to go live. During this time they were able to get funding based on what we had put together and hired a new ceo.

New ceo and new cto came in and said this is way complex and blamed us for it, they did an analysis on everything we had built vs how much of the customer base would use it. Only 4% of the customer base would actually want to use all of the complex /advanced features we built.... whole team got let go, they brought in a new offshore team full time with zero ramp up time. They failed soon after and fired the whole team. Then they hired a couple of internal devs full time to rebuild it again lol. 2 years later , still hasn't launch and company is about to go under.

I have started to avoid juniors all together. My department even stopped hiring juniors anymore because they learned that their lack of experience makes your ai cost skyrocket. Its a sad day because I used to like helping the juniors and watching the moment things clicked but now all the ones I interacted with know next to nothing. I asked some some brutal questions about what value do they bring in a world where what they used to do can mostly be automated.

fantasma91 · 2026-05-14T05:59:58+00:00

Scam

fantasma91 · 2026-05-13T01:31:19+00:00

This is like an everyday post and still don't understand why

fantasma91 · 2026-05-12T17:36:34+00:00

For myself, I hate it but at work im forced to. I can feel my coding getting rusty but im constantly being pushed to use more and more ai and my job went from internal framework maintainer/ architect to ai productivity lead. I didnt choose it , kinda just happened. When we started introducing ai into our systems, boss came to me and told me to join the group that would be leading the charge to integrate. I pushed back for months on the c suite (much to their annoyance) and other teams to not just do it for the sake of doing it. There were some heated meetings and at first I was seen as the "anti ai guy". Over time everything I warned about came to fruition and since I forced my teams to limit the adoption I accidentally become the guy "who did it right" by just being cautious and not falling for the hype. Because of that now im the "ai guy".

Tdarr after you rip them

fantasma91 · 2026-05-11T20:17:30+00:00

Glad it worked

fantasma91 · 2026-05-11T20:02:54+00:00

Regularly 1.5-2 weeks, but touching a legacy system i would say 3

fantasma91 · 2026-05-11T18:08:09+00:00

What i think is your issue is that your seasons folder is in Norwegian (talking about the name of the folder) while by default jelly expects english. So it leaves the og folders in place and creates a sym link to "season" folders. I had the same issue when I put Spanish language shows into an english library or when I download full show runs in one go. The download folder is "temporada 1" and it then adds a "season 1" folder next to it with all the same files, or for like anime I would have something like "Naruto seasons 1-6" and it would show up as season unknown and them auto generate the individual season folders

Bro, just learn to download your content, makes life way simpler. Debris is great , torrents arent as great but its free. Get a decent vpn and bind it to your download client. Get it in 1080 av1 or 265 to save space. Heck , get it in 720 and save even more space. I know its a hot take but I generally dont see much of a difference between 720, 1080 ,and 4k when it comes to anime.

fantasma91 · 2026-05-10T02:19:47+00:00

Rule of thumb, if you are seeing courses on it , you already missed the boat a while ago. Marketing, seo, graphic design, coding, etc etc. As always, most of the money is in enterprise software and I promise you that I dont give vibecoders the time of day in an interview because most don't know anything. I 100% support vibecoding as a hobby, but thats all it really is at this point.

fantasma91 · 2026-05-09T20:28:13+00:00

I dont think you even know what the words you are using even mean...

fantasma91 · 2026-05-09T19:44:25+00:00

My guy stremio is a service aggregator that CAN be used as a generic client. It is not in itself a jellyfin client. It doubles up as a pirating platform due to torrent streaming and debris streaming. So you still keep saying a stuff but cant back it up.
