03:58 Para Ah, reddit. Sometimes you still manage to be on point and funny.
03:59 Para "Claude Code's creator is sick of the phrase 'vibe coding.' Suggest your alternative here."
03:59 Para So obviously someone suggested "slopmaxxing"
04:06 * Nnavd joined #java

04:45 jreicher I suggest "scrapbooking"

15:26 Swayze isnt it already "ai assisted coding"
15:27 * stfstfm_ joined #java
15:28 Para No.
15:28 Para Microslop is microslop, vibe coding is now slopmaxxing. Both for same reason; corporations don't dictate public discourse.

15:32 Swayze YEP.

20:06 jbosmans the 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 jbosmans v1.0.0.0 of any meaningful/actually used code is only the very first step of a very long journey
20:07 jbosmans BUT
20:07 jbosmans of course, people with vested interest in LLM would say "just ask AI to do it for you in the future"
20:08 jbosmans nevermind the context window is x times larger, same as for the cost
20:08 jbosmans and of course, there remains "no one you can call"
20:09 jbosmans so 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 GreenResponse everywhere I see “AI” label, I kill-it-with-fire.gif
20:14 GreenResponse for example firefox browser
20:15 jbosmans what the best/least bad option tho browser-wise
20:15 jbosmans what's*
20:16 jbosmans i've been using firefox since (maybe before?) it was called phoenix
20:16 GreenResponse I meant to say “AI features” in firefox
20:16 dreamreal pffft
20:16 dreamreal we've been here before
20:16 jbosmans and netscape 5/6 before that :')
20:16 jbosmans GreenResponse, i tend to agree btw ^
20:17 dreamreal https://bytecode.news/posts/2026/03/the-ai-dilemma
20:17 javabot dreamreal's title: "The AI Dilemma | bytecode.news"
20:17 GreenResponse I still use it, it’s the best browser on Earth, in my opinion and has big, shiny AI kill-switch
20:17 jbosmans pretty soon someone will say, "why even browse yourself" etc
20:17 jbosmans yeah, same
20:17 jbosmans also uBlock Origin && NoScript
20:17 leppard just needs one more know for restricting ram
20:17 leppard like edge....
20:18 jbosmans so yeah, i spend time unblocking hostnames like a nitwit
20:18 leppard s/know/knob/
20:18 jbosmans is edge better memory-wise than ff ?
20:19 dreamreal no
20:20 jbosmans could be it changed again over "recent times"
20:22 jbosmans dreamreal, good article @ BCN :)
20:23 jbosmans in my experience, it's often missed/unseen that instead of improving things, complexity is actually simply being moved around
20:24 jbosmans alas, "simply" is in hindsight, because the moving around itself of said complexity is all but simple (or cheap)
20:24 jbosmans usually it starts with someone saying "why don't we just <insert here>?"
20:27 jbosmans fwiw, 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 jbosmans sorry, 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 jbosmans i was triggered :)
20:29 jbosmans in any case, so much for playing the role of captain obvious :-)
