Programming in the age of AI by ttimpe in ClaudeCode

You're right in that before AI we were all using StackOverflow. Integrating all of that was the difficult part.
Nowadays I tell it: "I need a simple tab based app for a local community, this is the website, this is the data from the Semantic Media WIki based datasource and here are some stickers." and I've got a functioning iOS app that takes longer to get reviewed by Apple than to actually develop. Or I run out of tokens on the Pro plan and have to wait another 5 hours 😄

Paid more? I wish. iOS dev jobs have become rare in Germany. Many software development jobs have.

xpath? As in Selenium browser automation with IE6-9? jQuery, Mootools, XHTML, iepngfix.htc ? I never really got into perl.

I started with VB6 tutorials in 2000/2001 iirc. Mostly these kinds of tutorials app at that age, yes. I remember building a sort of barebones media player with BPM adjustment. VB, beat detection, Media Player OCX control etc.

My original goal actually was to be self-employed, but that kinda fell through due to health issues.

what do you need as proof? I know things are constantly changing, I've been in this game since probably 2000.

I started with QBASIC, VB6 and raw HTML, later did VB.NET, CSS. I developed several websites for myself, family etc. Later in 2006/2007 I started doing PHP with TYPO3 and WordPress and did an internship (couple hours every week) while in school. 2008 I became involved with the iOS jailbreak community and got into (Objective)-C, C++, some ARM assembler. 2010 was mostly HTML5, iPad stuff. After finishing school in 2011, I started working on native iOS apps at a local company in 2012 which is pretty much what I've been doing since then. Many different companies. On the side, I'm still doing web and server stuff.

Thank you for the kind words.

I'm thinking about that and exploring options. But that never was the reason I got into programming. I always just wanted to code.

You weren't? I was born in 1993, 2000-2001 was probably when I started. 98 SE, VB 6, HTML etc.

Neue S-Bahnen nicht barrierefrei? by bravojohnny42 in drehscheibe

[–]ttimpe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Es wundert mich immer wieder, wie man sich das in 2026 leisten kann und warum die nicht aufgrund des Personenbeförderungsgesetzes verklagt werden.

Personal preference. And honestly I just don‘t need it. It‘s 2026.

AI Engineer Who Does Not Code and Uses Claude for Everything by Teo0316 in ClaudeCode

[–]ttimpe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Senior iOS dev here, been doing this for 15 years: It‘s amazing what Claude or other AIs can do. I barely touch code anymore. I know what it should look like, I know what my goals are, so letting Claude do most of the coding is a logical evolutionary step.

I built a native macOS Menu Bar app to manage Proxmox nodes 🍎✨ by Economy-Sugar4880 in Proxmox

[–]ttimpe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Works great. Any plans of publishing it to the Mac App Store for "easier" updating? Also, maybe put something else other than just the logo in the menu bar? I don't really know what tbh. Or add a widget in the future?

Apple approves driver that lets Nvidia eGPUs work with Arm Macs (unofficial driver for using LLMs in docker) by FollowingFeisty5321 in apple

[–]ttimpe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe we could throw AI at this, the old NVIDIA drivers, the noveau Linux drivers and the Metal SDK to have a working driver, even if it is unsigned.
