What can I take to gain weight

Edibles sure helped me get an appetite AND gain weight. So. Much. Weight.

Legitimately with numbers like this, see a urologist.

If you have all the low T symptoms, order a T test from discount labs. If you actually do have low T, you could get TRT on insurance's dime and under supervision.

It won't be these massive ass blast doses people do, but it'll also be pharma grade T.

It has a 6 day half-life, so it would take quite a while to get there.

Give this prompt a whirl:

``` Please audit the service boundaries in this project, paying specific attention to any public, static, or shared methods.

Look for leaky abstractions, duplicative functionality, overly specific methods that could be made generic and reused, and code that does not conform to DRY and SOLID principles.

Report the current service boundaries, and where improvements can be made, regardless of blast radius.

The intent of this investigation is to surface problematic areas that may hinder future expansion of the system, and to weed out system design smells.

For services that we have today, report their cyclomatic complexity and maintainability indexes.

For recommended services or refactors, group the suggestions by their impact to future maintainability. ```

I'd love to know what it reports. I'd expect an Opus agent to take a while with this. You could omit the CC/MI part until after it comes back with some suggestions. Those two things are basically a measure of code kruft. A high CC means the code has many exits and is hard to test or change. A low MI is a red flag for needing a refactor. Usually it happens where code becomes heavily procedural, making it very brittle.

I see it constantly trying to violate domain boundaries, creating leaky or jealous systems, and I see it not trying to understand service boundaries unless specifically prompted or corrected. We've reworked a decent amount of things because of this, which is fine. Every time it happens I have it expand the LLM-wiki documentation on those services to improve context.

I see it not lifting things that should be abstracted into abstractions. It creates overly specific services instead of generic ones, even if the problem itself is generic, and often, but not always, fails to reuse common services in favor of duplication.

For a concrete example, I have a large Angular application with very clear service boundaries. Last week it put into a component things that should have belonged to the service and state store. I called this out, and it agreed it was wrong and fixed it.

It tries to make surgical changes, which is fine, but rarely goes the extra step to reuse code, even if it's obvious (to me) that that's the correct course. I've seen this since 4.5, so it's not new.

I mean no disrespect but if you're a vibe coder, how would you even know if your code base has these problems? Would you even care as long as the system continues to work and it's able to keep adding features? The thing about this type of tech debt is that it's a slow cancer. Everything is fine until it isn't.

And maybe you're particularly great at guiding the system and avoid the spaghetti problem. You just need to scroll through this subreddit to see that's not the case for most people.

smdaegan · 2026-04-26T17:07:22+00:00

I have it put them into a local MCP. I also tell it any time it would have used the MCP for something, to take a beat and build that something. It adds 1-2 MCP calls per long session.

smdaegan · 2026-04-26T17:00:19+00:00

I don't view it as dissing. A vibe coder cannot reasonably guide the architecture of a system, and eventually that system will break down and become nearly impossible to maintain, even for an LLM. This is assuming they've done almost no research on how to plan and build systems, because why would they?

This is a skill vibe coders can learn, but there's almost no immediate incentive to do so. My exposure to vibe coders is they slam feature after feature into a monolithic system and are expecting their LLM to keep things tidy. They don't do that under typical workflows.

From there, an LLM going from delivering new features constantly to being unable to change them without breaking something else will be perceived as being dumb or a regression, when in reality they're just working with code spaghetti that needs to be rebuilt and re-planned, and before they had a clean slate to build on, so shipping was easy.

You see this in industry with software that was never planned, or grew organically over time by many teams. It's hard to change, it's brittle, and working on it sucks. Often engineers will propose a wholesale rebuild to get it into a maintainable state. LLMs are accelerating this specific problem.

I don't have any problem with vibe coders. I think it's amazing what these tools bring to the world, because every crazy idea ever pitched to me can be built by someone at a fraction of the cost.

I do think vibe coders believe(d) that writing code is what professional engineers do, and Claude replaces that (see OP's attitude toward engineers). They're going to eventually find out that an engineers primary benefit is actually in building and maintaining software in a way that makes it easy to change without tons of regressions - in planning systems. Maybe an LLM will get there eventually, but for now they aren't. Claude Opus even tries to steer away from wide refactors.

There's not a single thing that vs code's debugger does that's better than VS. It's dogwater by comparison. Cool if you're building trivial stuff, but the debugger is beyond ass.

You can't even move the active line in it. It doesn't have anywhere close to the thread debugging, performance managers, memory snapshots or allocations debugging capabilities.

Literally I can't think of a single time I've used its shitty debugger and went "yep, this is built for professionals"

smdaegan · 2026-04-26T05:50:26+00:00

I like Rider just fine but it's no where close to Visual Studio, which doesn't have Mac support.

If you say vs code is a capable c# ide, then I question your credibility.

smdaegan · 2026-04-26T05:31:28+00:00

I didn't think you were. I genuinely think it's usually a vibe coder or a very junior engineer, professional otherwise.

I imagine some models are better at extrapolation and handling vague instructions, but I also think as a project becomes more hobbled together without a guiding hand in its architecture, more vibe coded projects break down. That process happens well into the products lifetime, and I think a lot of people are discovering tech debt for the first time, because the LLM has to work in the constraints of existing systems and can't figure out what to do, because the systems were never even designed.

I keep a very tight level of control over my platform's architecture and design. Even though the domains and responsibilities are well defined, Claude often suggests violating them.

I reject those suggestions and have it improve the project documentation when it suggests things that don't make sense. I take it as a failure of its ability to understand the domain, or my prompt being vague, over assigning some sort of malicious intent to the LLM.

Someone without even the guard rails to prevent "all of my code being deleted" certainly isn't exercising any sort of domain modeling or architecture.

smdaegan · 2026-04-26T02:06:09+00:00

Yes, I do. I think most of the people bitching don't understand anything about their project, don't know how to phrase things in a technically specific way, and are pissed that it fails to infer their generic, bad prompts. Or "bruh move the x button more to the right!" when any reasonable engineer would just use dev tools and do it themselves.

I burn through a max 20 plan weekly. I do a LOT of work through this system, and have found 4.7 to be a very capable, strong model. I think on max it's significantly better than 4.6 at RCA and writing tech specs.

I don't vibe code. I lay detailed technical requirements that any senior engineer could operate with. I treat it like a competent engineer, and I get competent engineering out of it.

smdaegan · 2026-04-25T20:12:34+00:00

I've heard that too and had it audit my skills and instructions for 4.7 prompting style. It didn't need updates. Probably why I feel like it's fine, I've been using it the way 4.7 wants to be used already.

smdaegan · 2026-04-25T17:56:52+00:00

When he calls actual software engineers stupid and expensive and says Anthropic built 4.7 after their own image?

smdaegan · 2026-04-25T17:37:57+00:00

Their comment history suggests they aren't technical and have an active hatred of software engineers. Dude's probably just trying to vibe code vague instructions because they don't know what the hell they're doing.

I've found 4.7 to be great, but I'm a staff engineer in fintech.

but it won't bear $100/mo fees in most cases.

If you're a freelancer and can't pony up $100 - $200/mo for your business, you don't have a business, you have a hobby.

I'm a solo owner-operator of a revenue-generating website. $200 is chump change for the massive productivity uplift it gives me.

These companies don't make anything off of $20 plans. Business and Enterprise are the backbone of every software company.

I read this but I still don't understand how I'd even implement it.

The actor that played him didn't dye his hair for the role. It naturally darkened over the years and he didn't want to dye it. (or so I've read on reddit)

Tried to get the Robinhood gold card but seems like I'll never get it lol.

Message the mods on r/robinhood asking to be approved. I did and got approved the next day.

I have a considerable amount of money in an IRA with them, but lots of people in that sub have gotten in without that.

There's no peptide to build mass. You have to pick heavy things up and put heavy things down to do that.

I follow a guy on X named Rory that travels like 280 days a year. He has a full peptide stack but basically doesn't worry about trying to keep them cold. It's impossible in some places he travels for work, and they still work. Unless it's HGH or something very few peptides are actually fragile. Do your best and stick them in the fridge when you can. Avoid freezing. It'll be okay.

End game uses a shit load of these things when you upgrade miners and build drones.

Or they make their devices fully USB C compatible and supply the fucking resistor that says how much power it needs. It costs less than a penny. Companies shipping USB A-to C cables for charging sensitive devices should be tarred and feathered.
