A mix of gpt-5.5 and claude opus 4.7, wrapped in my own mobile web UI that doubles as planning software and document editor.

The reason for the mobile focus is I’ve been trying to detach from my home office as much as possible, meaning I do a lot of up-front planning via ADRs and task/story writing, then I spawn agents to actually work on coding tasks. The only part that really requires sitting at a desk is code review, manual testing, and deeper human-in-the-loop coding or debugging sessions.

If you are able to max out the $100/mo plans from either OpenAI or Anthropic, then that is already a very cost-effective option.

You should file an issue.

Seems pretty similar to DBOS

Doesn’t Matrix do everything you just listed?

Where did you get the idea that Zig is an “easy” language?

Copyparty. Or any other web file server.

Most of these takes seem pretty agreeable to me. I would push back on the premise a bit in specific cases, like when you have a manager that always seems to want something new and changes their mind all the time. You need to insulate yourself from that stream of wasteful work by just not doing it until it’s obviously necessary.

speed alone doesn’t make someone a good programmer

OP didn’t make that claim. They said all else being equal fast is better than slow. They also said that in their experience, the best programmers they knew were good because they were fast (not withholding other potential reasons they were good).

Your point is consistent with the OP’s thesis.

Rootless docker exists now. Not sure why people still don’t use it.

Sorry but you will never get me to enjoy writing or even reading code on a tiny display.

Judgement call. When it’s something prone to change that’s hard to get right, duplicating it just creates more maintenance burden.

As if needing to be able to understand code quickly wasn’t already a problem before LLMs.

We just need one rich asshole in a private jet to crash due to ATC failure for them to care.

People who’ve never used Rust or only used it once and couldn’t grok it like to meme that Rust is bad to cope.

It is almost always that.

and it happens exactly as the people whose claim is being denied with “slippery slope” fallacy said

But this is the crux of the fallacy. What evidence is anyone providing that there is indeed an insidious chain of events we are enabling by adding the birthdate field? Are there examples of cases similar to this in history?

EDIT: I can tell people are getting emotional about this because I’m being down voted for just asking a question that elaborates the point someone is making.

I’m thinking seriously about using something like a Daylight tablet as a thin client for a more powerful machine at home. Obviously doing real coding by hand would still suck, but LLM-based coding might actually be viable.

This just makes me realize that my TI Nspire calculator probably violates this law.

Slop points aside, I found 5.4 to be pretty ass compared to 5.3 codex. Took way longer and wasted more tokens.

1000 lines isn’t that unreasonable for a PR. Commit size matters more.
