Really nice move, just speed and simplicity.

Those who’ve worked at scale know simplicity is brutally hard — but those who stop pushing for it altogether have failed their responsibility.

I disagree with you, as it seems you tend to prioritize graphic design while overlooking other important aspects.

Personally, I find this idea alone to be very creative. Isn't a great designer someone who weaves together countless mediocre ideas to form a truly creative concept?

I think we should better differentiate between HACK and NOTE from TODOs.

I like it, and I once thought about this as well:

> Python doesn't require a requirements.txt file, but if you don't maintain this file, or neglect to provide one, it could result in broken functionalities - an unfortunate circumstance for a scripting language.

As far as I can tell, "API" and the webpages often have different authentication methods.

It is still "prompting".

Now that I know, I’ll never attempt using this fancy app.

I can imagine that those who prefer a hands-on approach might spend more time understanding the problem, as they need to read through the code and debug to identify what is wrong.

It depends. For small tasks like summarization or self-contained code snippets, it’s really good—like figuring out how to inspect a binary executable on Linux, or designing a ranking algorithm for different search patterns. If you only want average performance or don’t care much about the details, it can produce reasonable results without much oversight.

But for larger tasks—say, around 2,000 lines of code—it often fails in a lot of small ways. It tends to generate a lot of dead code after multiple iterations, and might repeatedly fail on issues you thought were easy to fix. Mentally, it can get exhausting, and you might end up rewriting most of it yourself. I think people are just tired of how much we expect LLMs to deliver, only for them to fail us in unexpected ways. The LLM is good, but we really need to push to understand its limitations.
