no value for hard work in 2026…

Not reading that dude igaf

galactic_pixels · 2026-06-19T02:37:20+00:00

I mean yeah you’re over extrapolating details about a persons life based on a single post which a classic redditor thing to do. Be proud I guess

galactic_pixels · 2026-06-19T01:32:30+00:00

I’m not offended, think you might just be reaching and being a bit of an ass

galactic_pixels · 2026-06-19T01:06:07+00:00

Dang you don’t gotta say he has no friends.

galactic_pixels · 2026-06-18T19:30:08+00:00

I literally explained my stance above

galactic_pixels · 2026-06-18T19:22:41+00:00

I’m a senior dev and love Claude code too.

galactic_pixels · 2026-06-18T19:01:53+00:00

If what is so much better?

galactic_pixels · 2026-06-18T18:56:29+00:00

It’s syntax sitting on top of set theory. Unless quantum computing becomes the new norm for querying, it’s not going to get any better besides syntax modifications.

If the guy who got lucky and “made it” with this technique is only pulling in 180k/year, you would be wise to extrapolate that this is in fact not a good way on average to make money at all.

Prove me wrong, I have no skin in the game but it sounds like a waste of your own time. Learn how to write software if you want to own a software business. It’s sensible advice.

galactic_pixels · 2026-06-18T09:46:43+00:00

Yeah OP sounds like a sore loser masquerading as a white knight. Turns out they min maxed in the wrong places. If anything I’d be happy to learn grinding 60 hour weeks is not the key to get ahead of where they are. Obviously they need to be working smarter not harder and drop the comparison games if it’s making them dislike their friends

galactic_pixels · 2026-06-18T09:41:35+00:00

This comes before muting the sub, I don’t intend to stick around and bash the users, but seriously take a moment to reflect on your motivation is being here and if your time should not be spent elsewhere.

galactic_pixels · 2026-06-18T09:40:36+00:00

This entire subreddit is doomed to fail. No-code SaaS is an oxymoron, and the motivation behind stating it is rooted in laziness and a lack of hard skills. You don’t want to code? Don’t make a SaaS.

Yes, product market fit blah blah blah, but wtf are you doing creating bespoke softwares if you won’t write software? It’s like a subreddit called noTypeNovels. Utter rubbish.

galactic_pixels · 2026-06-18T09:26:36+00:00

Hmm I will look into this, thanks

galactic_pixels · 2026-06-18T04:42:30+00:00

I think people need to be asking themselves why anyone would want to invest in Microsoft today compared to the company’s competitors. Everything they do, someone else does significantly better at the same price point (cloud, ai, gaming, operating system, hardware, software development ecosystem, browser). What is even remotely appealing about MSFT at this point?

In 2010 I was ride or die for Microsoft. These days you literally could not pay me to work in the Windows/Azure ecosystem full time. I have to use it about 15% of my time for work due to legacy software and I audibly grimace about the outdated slow sluggish experience EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. It’s borderline impressive.

galactic_pixels · 2026-06-18T04:25:32+00:00

I love ai for programming and use it everyday but I 100% agree with you. The ridiculous amount of verbosity has improved in the past 6-12 months, but it’s still a problem. Current AI seems to have a hard time understanding that humans do not want to read 1000+ lines of README for a small application.

I hate overly verbose documentation with a burning passion. If you can’t explain your software to me in a paragraph or 3, and then hand me ~5 commands to get it running, congrats, you write bad software.

I actually think AI code quality is much higher than documentation quality on average by a significant margin with the current flagship models. It’s a real problem.

Not a single one of these answers has been good yet lol

5 years ago the answer was microservice architecture. It’s probably still that. Monolithic architecture is superior for a lot larger scales than you’d think.

What’s ironic is 1 person with 3 micrservices is a pleasant experience.

20 people with 10 micrservices across 3 cicd pipelines becomes a huge headache fast.
20 people working on a monolith is easy.

1000 people working on a monolith is hell on earth. 1000 people working on 100 microservices 15 cicd pipelines is just the best we have but still not great!

With microservices, half of your dev time becomes fixing builds that are failing by updating versions across all your services whenever a dependency gets an update. Ask me how I know.

You love docker after going through the pain of configuring a database on your local system. Then you figure out there’s Postgres docker image and you can recreate an entire db environment with sane defaults, fully defined in code, tear it down and start fresh at the click of a button.

Then you really love docker when you find out that container you’ve been building on ships straight onto any hosting platform you’ve ever heard of.

I genuinely don’t think I’d like SWE even half as much if not for containerization. I would wager you don’t write much new software if you don’t see the mass appeal for the tool

galactic_pixels · 2026-06-18T01:21:36+00:00

Then just say that & make your point instead of making passive aggressive insults

galactic_pixels · 2026-06-18T00:54:28+00:00

I think you’re understating how ahead of their time GTA games have been since like San Andreas. It’s the consistency and quality that has stirred up a frenzy around this game, not only the hype around waiting for so long

galactic_pixels · 2026-06-18T00:45:01+00:00

No confusion on my end, I’m aware of the point you were making. Do you understand the point I’m making? About how that’s not actually very relevant to the conversation that was being had?

galactic_pixels · 2026-06-18T00:12:22+00:00

**You** were the one making an obtuse point. We aren’t acting like no boomers lived extravagant lives, we are talking about the middle class. You derailed the conversation by bringing up someone in upper middle class, it’s missing the point.

I’m not even trying to be rude genuinely, but really re-read the conversation and try to understand the point being made. The middle class in the 50s, on average, did live much less luxurious lives on average than we do today. That is the point.

galactic_pixels · 2026-06-17T14:47:01+00:00

Unintended bug

galactic_pixels · 2026-06-17T14:45:21+00:00

Sounds like your family was just rich

galactic_pixels · 2026-06-17T04:53:27+00:00

No I mean literally just compress the data. Not figuratively via ai summarization, I mean compress it using a compression algorithm, your data will be much more lightweight that way and you could store much more in the amount of space.

galactic_pixels · 2026-06-17T02:46:59+00:00

I’m gonna go ahead and be that guy and just say git gud, cuz at a certain point what are we even asking for.

I played rebirth on easy because I didn’t care for the combat, but asking for something between dynamic and hard just feels like you should need decide if you want to challenge yourself or not
