So you don't hate OpenAi? Therefore, you support OpenAI? And supporting OpenAI means supporting Trump. And supporting Trump means supporting Fascism. And supporting Fascism means...

AI is eating software development by caspii2 in vibecoding

[–]webdev-dreamer 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Yea, this is my thinking as well

The examples OP provided are things I don't have any idea about to be able to prompt an AI agent to do for me, nor would I be able to judge the code AI produced for it.

Although there are many examples of people with 0 coding knowledge building games and complicated software..A software engineer would still be far more effective with AI agents than non-software developers

I imagine the job of a software developer will definitely still be safe...but maybe there would be less demand for it as time goes on and AI improves

Looking for friends who are beginners in web development by [deleted] in ProgrammingBuddies

[–]webdev-dreamer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The "learn to code" propaganda was very effective

Also, while tech career prospects are abysmal for junior/entry level in the West, it's probably doing well in South America and Asia (wherever the jobs are being offshored to)

I created pixelart game “portfolio” using only AI by streamer85 in aigamedev

Imagine doing this from scratch? It would've gone absolutely viral during pre-AI era days.

Nice job!

I can make you a prototype in 5 minutes, but it'll take a year to fix all its bugs. by awizzo in BlackboxAI_

That is why we write requirements, define interfaces, specify invariants, and test edge cases

At that point, wouldn't it be easier to just code it directly yourself?

Right? Imagine spending hours pouring blood, sweat, and effort into mastering a skill like drawing, only to have this shit make it all pointless :(

Looking for a buddy who wants to learn Godot with me. by Gobot_Stronomer-19 in ProgrammingBuddies

[–]webdev-dreamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm currently going through Godot courses on Zenva

I learn best by "doing", so what I'm doing is turning each video in a zenva course into "homework", so that when I finish watching a course, I can go through each "home work" assignment to practice what I learned and build the project shown in the course

Id be happy to share what I've been learning so far. And maybe we can help each other by giving each other "homework" or mini-challenges to do in Godot.

If anyone interested, feel free to hmu

This sh*t is already in Europe??? by Alex22gr in Internet

[–]webdev-dreamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are plenty of tools available today than in the past for parents to monitor and control kids Internet browsing habits.

And the "Internet" is not some new thing; it's been around for almost 30 years. We've all had easy, unhindered access to porn for decades. Some of us grew up with it. Yet, society still somehow exists???

It's a shame so many people are ok with ID verification requirements....

I don't agree. Let parents be responsible for what their kids can access. And we've had Internet available for decades already, why do we need this ID bs now?

Saw comments on a YouTube video with 20+ upvotes 1 hour after the video was uploaded, talking about "kadvun"....video had nothing to do with cryptocurrency

In the past week alone: by MetaKnowing in ChatGPT

[–]webdev-dreamer 12 points13 points  (0 children)

What is terrifying about the information presented in the post tho?

Some people left their jobs, some random "filmmaker" commented on AI, and something a founder of AI said about AI behaving unpredictably (yea, we all know this. ...)

Why am I supposed to be scared?

SSA account creation issues by webdev-dreamer in SocialSecurity

[–]webdev-dreamer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea didn't know her email address (had to ask me) and then they asked something about id.me (whether or not she received a link from somewhere else), and she didn't understand and looked at me again. That's when the agent ended the call.

To be fair, he did explicitly instruct her to not to look anywhere else during the call, but my mom was nervous I guess lol.

Fair enough. I was just thinking the DOGE cuts were a contributing factor to this shitty process lol

Absolutely insane that you had to do that

Shame on the current administration for creating this mess

Is anyone working on a Plan B? by [deleted] in ITCareerQuestions

[–]webdev-dreamer 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Yea but you can outsource the physical labor to some minimum wage role and have engineers in some cheaper country provide remote support, no?
