This is a freaking good read.

Not in a year, this project became a “use case” for ai. So won’t die soon.

Somewhat often the LLM makes the text sterile, and removes some of the weird flair I like to use. But it was almost a year ago last time I used for this. I’ll try again.

Would it be rude to recommend a grammar checker? […]

English isn’t my mother tongue, and I do use a basic spell checker. But I have a gut feel that this isn’t the topic. What do you mean by grammar checker?

This was a pretty awesome read. Thanks for sharing.

Fair point, but a more “unhinged” text also don’t bring the discussion that I want to have in the piefed/lemmy… so I need to choose for the boring, unhinged or comedic text.

My natural words goes harder on the acid and sarcastic wording, if I tone down I can get on the “comedic” flair, which in my humble view, is sightly pleasant to read.

But if the few words were enough for us to get here and start the conversation, the text already proved its worth.

Heavily coupled code with a lot of duplication of code. These are the main points of the refactor.

There is some lack of “smart” use of the JS, like the positional arguments instead of objects (for quick fix/change), no separation of concerns, there is something lightly there, but lacks the gross thing.

While one reader goes on the

“[…] Are you using AI? Then stop, you won’t learn […]”

someone else understood my feeling towards it. Thanks for the kind words.

What aspect of the chimera? Like the mythological way? Or this is closer to the “parts of everything touching”?

Hahahaha

That’s a pretty accurate description on most of the wrong parts :D

Are you using AI? Then stop, you won’t learn.

The problem isn’t the lack of usage, but how to use, and this is a learning point in it.

“the cards moved like they were sedated,” that’s literally the only requirement in a card game, don’t release anything if it’s broken.

I only notice that this would be a problem after having the alpha testing with my close friends and some other people. Also, there is logs and other tools for the understading on what is happening on the project.

Where is the source code?

I think I left the source somewhere in the original post, this is closer to a self evaluation on the ideas and concepts used.

For my use case, didn’t work. But I was in a more spec driven than anything else. So maybe with a shorter spec file would have a better result.

Most of my complains are on the func (f *thing) name(w *http.Writer...), this is ok for small functions, but when you have 20 lines, where 10 of then uses single letters around are unbearable.

Regarding the CLAUDE.md, didn’t work at all. I don’t know if the training material is so small in the GoLang that makes the model go crazy on specific details, or maybe the single letter was preferred since it consumes less tokens, either way, didn’t work at all. And I was using the Opus. I know that they released the Fable, but I can’t use since it’s coding related.

The Qwen model I used a quantized version of it for a lot of the stuff, it’s super fast, but a 8 vRAM won’t hold it. On my Linux box I have 16vRAM and managed to hold it tight, but I notice that I was destroying the GPU for long running tasks, so I aborted.

I do have a Blackwell in mind, with some luck I can manage to grab one and test a full precision DeepSeek V4 Flash in it. I already saw some people doing it in a single Blackwell, so should be a thing to have at home to play around, but this is a far future.

Edit: I did rewrote the post. Once I calmed my mind down I think it’s better now. At least my closed friends prefer this version of it.

That was really insightful.

And align with a close friend on the topic. So you know. I think I’ll rewrite this post in a less “aggressive” tone.

When two of my close friends don’t like a post, there is a good chance that the post isn’t good enough to leave the oven.

Very sorry to hear that. Would you mind elaborating on the topic? What was the issue? The language? The tone? The way that I described? English isn’t my mother language, and I want to improve how I do express myself in it.

You complain about the ai essay style, and pointed to the language tool, I told you that I self host, so doesn’t include this part of it. (The ai bulshiting)

Either way, feels like you didn’t like my “writing” in a general sense… I imagined it was some deeper thought on it. Either way thanks for the reading.

Does it matter?

When shite is going to the fan, this is the price I want :)

Self hosted, doesn’t include the AI bulshiting.

Last week I was deeply in the mind of “I don’t see the real benefit” of AI for a fair lot of things. But with the current change of hearts in a lot of companies, and with the fact that this tool won’t leave us soon. I’m trying to mitigate the major issues on codebases that I’ll work in the future.

So yeah, this is kind of the situation, and maybe this is the point that needs to be more explored on the conversation of the AI bullshiting.

Can you help me there. This writting style is mostly me (an non-native) writting. And a fair lot of languagetool fixing my grammar mistakes.

Maybe you can point some of the issues, maybe it’s how I express myself, or something else. Also thanks for reading the text.
