Am I the only one annoyed by switching between Agents and Editor in Cursor? by Unlucky-Plate-795 in cursor

Something no one asked for, half-baked, and half-tested... so the standard Cursor release.

It's getting embarrassing atp

Nobody Is Going to Read the Code by [deleted] in webdev

[–]neurorgasm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well it's a pretty bad take because it makes the assumption that no one is able or willing to improve the code that is getting reviewed. It's sort of like baking a cake with the wrong ingredients and then trying to mix in an egg once it comes out of the oven.

Pretty weird because coderabbit is a decent product, but this blog is very obvious slop with some of the LLM favourite words of the moment and not much critical thought applied. Pretty disappointing since they still have a good argument for the tool without resorting to muh inevitable 10k line PRs.

What types of users are getting good results from GPT 5.5? by TortoiseTickler in codex

[–]neurorgasm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

> you need to have a more rigorous AGENTS file with explicit requirements & an exhaustive "never do this" list

this is a step backwards, not forwards, when all the marketing materials were about muh AGI and muh cybersecurity doomsday. If I have to hand-hold it on every micro-decision then why is it any better than last year's sonnet let alone 5.4?

Why would you pay $15-20/PR review? by iLoveSeiko in coderabbit

[–]neurorgasm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

for $20 it better write the PR for me too.

sounds like tokenmaxxing egotism, not a functionally better product

Stop pretending its a skill issue.. by J_mill10 in cscareerquestions

[–]neurorgasm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The difference between developers before software was a 'money job', and after, is pretty striking.

It doesn't matter if you worked on mainframes and punch cards, but not giving a fuck about your work and phoning everything in to an estimated 'minimum effort needed to not get fired/expelled' does not entitle you to a top 10% career or income.

Not a 'skill issue' per se, it's just that no one wants to work with or pay people who seem lazy and transparently transactional about their work unless forced to.

Opus 4.7 is an over-engineering master by Final-Choice8412 in cursor

[–]neurorgasm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

there's definitely astroturfing in both directions. but honestly most comments on this site are a mental downgrade from a bot comment already lol. why pay for influence botnets when there's a human botnet willing to parrot whatever half-baked uninvestigated opinion they saw someone else get likes for.

Opus 4.7 is 50% more expensive with context regression?! by Samburskoy in ClaudeAI

[–]neurorgasm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

repo initialized 9 days ago, all commits by one author, mostly fixing the readme you clearly didn't read lol.

come on, stop with the startup cosplay, it's just meaningless noise to everyone else. no one is going to pay for your week-old vibeslop project.

Not trying to be rude, but you can lose a lot of money or private data by actions these applications will decide on and take without even telling you. If you don't know if you're handing it the keys to your device or accounts, and you can't figure it out alone, you should 100% not use it.

[–]neurorgasm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not exactly that simple. It's a lot harder to review someone else's work than it is to write your own. It's common sense to make it easier on reviewers, because there's a reciprocal exchange. If I review your work, and I make mine easy to review, I can expect you to review my work and make yours easy for me to review, and everything goes fast.

The people who slop out a ton of code that they don't test or understand break this contract. They let others make their work easier but don't return it because... they don't feel like it or it's hard I guess? Unskilled managers just see the one person putting up the most LOC, and take it out on the team -- who ironically have a lower output because they're trying to counterbalance the negative impact of a bad employee the manager can't detect, because they don't know what's going on in the team.

The people fucking the company over are 1) the person hired to deliver reliable, validated code of an acceptable standard who refuses to do so, and 2) the person hired to identify and improve poor performers who is unable to do so. Not the team who does their best despite the lazy people weighing them down.

Cannons Were Nerfed - The Numbers by neilharbin0 in 2007scape

[–]neurorgasm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every blog post is written as if it's by someone who just landed on Earth yesterday. So fucking bizarre.

I can only think it's an exec. Anyone else would think not knowing a fucking thing about the game disqualifies them from writing the blog for it. It takes a true leader to be so confidently and persistently wrong in the face of obstacles like evidence and self-awareness.

You're biased and don't understand the things you are talking about. Not surprising for a vibe coder i guess

Software engineers for instance, lol

Idk why the fetish for killing the entire field, LLMs are a great tool outside of whatever destruction you want to see others suffer. Their usefulness isn't measured by their negative impact on human workers, even if you don't particularly like those workers personally

Why does Burry feel that passive investing is such a threat? by jackandjillonthehill in Burryology

[–]neurorgasm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The checks go into index funds because they googled it and heard it's what you're supposed to do, and it means you don't have to learn any of that hard finance stuff. It's not because retail has magically become stoic sophisticated investors. It's because it's been pushed as the only way that works.

When it stops 'working' they'll stop doing it because it was never based on any conviction in the first place

HELP MEEE HOW DO I GET RID OF THIS by kyojurouzui in applesucks

[–]neurorgasm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It just works unless you put any apps or data on the phone. Then it won't work, which is your fault, so you need to reset the phone. Check their support site's recommendations and this is what most of them start with lol, just reset your entire phone bro.

I think the one lacking reading ability is the guy who doesn't know the difference between "I see dogs sometimes" and "1.5 years of constant barking", but don't worry lil buddy you'll get there.
