03:58:53ParaAh, reddit. Sometimes you still manage to be on point and funny.
03:59:00Para"Claude Code's creator is sick of the phrase 'vibe coding.' Suggest your alternative here."
03:59:09ParaSo obviously someone suggested "slopmaxxing"

15:26:10Swayzeisnt it already "ai assisted coding"
15:27:43* stfstfm_ joined #java
15:28:05ParaNo.
15:28:28ParaMicroslop is microslop, vibe coding is now slopmaxxing. Both for same reason; corporations don't dictate public discourse.

20:06:41jbosmansthe thing i sort of dislike about the whole "is it worth it" etc (usually lack of nuance aside) is that purely "cheaply generating a bunch of code" was solved years ago in the outsourcing days
20:07:21jbosmansv1.0.0.0 of any meaningful/actually used code is only the very first step of a very long journey
20:07:22jbosmansBUT
20:07:51jbosmansof course, people with vested interest in LLM would say "just ask AI to do it for you in the future"
20:08:02jbosmansnevermind the context window is x times larger, same as for the cost
20:08:33jbosmansand of course, there remains "no one you can call"
20:09:55jbosmansso i don't think i'm an AI skeptic, but not looking forward to changing my profession into AI recipe/prompt expert either - per se
20:13:41GreenResponseeverywhere I see “AI” label, I kill-it-with-fire.gif
20:14:44GreenResponsefor example firefox browser
20:15:08jbosmanswhat the best/least bad option tho browser-wise
20:15:13jbosmanswhat's*
20:16:04jbosmansi've been using firefox since (maybe before?) it was called phoenix
20:16:07GreenResponseI meant to say “AI features” in firefox
20:16:08dreamrealpffft
20:16:13dreamrealwe've been here before
20:16:13jbosmansand netscape 5/6 before that :')
20:16:24jbosmansGreenResponse, i tend to agree btw ^
20:17:02dreamrealhttps://bytecode.news/posts/2026/03/the-ai-dilemma
20:17:03javabotdreamreal's title: "The AI Dilemma | bytecode.news"
20:17:11GreenResponseI still use it, it’s the best browser on Earth, in my opinion and has big, shiny AI kill-switch
20:17:12jbosmanspretty soon someone will say, "why even browse yourself" etc
20:17:31jbosmansyeah, same
20:17:47jbosmansalso uBlock Origin && NoScript
20:17:52leppardjust needs one more know for restricting ram
20:17:55leppardlike edge....
20:18:01jbosmansso yeah, i spend time unblocking hostnames like a nitwit
20:18:12leppards/know/knob/
20:18:39jbosmansis edge better memory-wise than ff ?
20:19:34dreamrealno
20:20:35jbosmanscould be it changed again over "recent times"
20:22:43jbosmansdreamreal, good article @ BCN :)
20:23:33jbosmansin my experience, it's often missed/unseen that instead of improving things, complexity is actually simply being moved around
20:24:23jbosmansalas, "simply" is in hindsight, because the moving around itself of said complexity is all but simple (or cheap)
20:24:59jbosmansusually it starts with someone saying "why don't we just <insert here>?"
20:27:03jbosmansfwiw, it's good to call things into question, also much better if person doing it has some understanding what "things" actually do today
20:28:18jbosmanssorry, i had to respond to "why don't we just all write it ourselves" during some meeting last week, with mgmt in the room
20:28:35jbosmansi was triggered :)
20:29:54jbosmansin any case, so much for playing the role of captain obvious :-)
