- gervwykIt all depends on how you prompt. and the prompt system you’ve setup.. when done well, you just “steer” the code /system. Quite amazing to see it come together. But there are multiple layers to this.
- As per other comments, if it’s making them money, why bother banning it
- have to disagree. maybe read a paragraph, its dense with context imo. i find slop to be light on context and wordy, this is not.
- lol. would love an episode on how Micheal and Dwight responds to Jims Ai slop.
- Did you have a very aggressive backup schedule?
- not if you are using Atlas. Its as simple as it can be with way more functionality you can ever admin in yourself.
As others have said unless the scale of the data is the issue, if your switching because of cost, perhaps you should be going back to your business model instead.
- Ooeeff.. Have been thinking to switch from pages router to this. But this kinda defeats the purpose
- I’d be happy with a robot that packs the dishwasher, even if that is its only skill
- This comment pretty much sums up this argument. Well said.
As with everything, choose the right tool for the job.
If it feels expensive or risky, make a u-turn, you probably went off the rails somewhere unless you’re working on bleeding edge stuff, and lbh most of us are not.

- I did a masters on design a autopilot to optimize fuel consumption in formation flight. What is interesting about the aerodynamics is that if placed in the upwash wake of the leader, you are essentially increasing the wing aspect ratio of the system, resulting in gains for both the leader and the follower aircraft. Feels very unintuitive but basically the donut spool is larger and the combined wing is bigger in the spool.
- Same problem, used them for about a year. Nice experience but too pricey. also escalated our aws fees, perhapsa good idea, but too pricey for what we need.
- i’d love to explore more on how nr 18 would be useful and use cases of it. would appreciate any examples
- I willing to bet every one here has a relative or friend who at some point got a false negative from a doctor.. Just like drivers that have made accidents.. Core problem is how to go about centralizing liability.. or not.
- Why is Yaml not on the list?
- Good point. i’m making the assumption that if the LLM has a more limited feature space to produce as output, then the output is more predictable, and thus faster to comprehend changes. Similar to when devs use popular libraries, there is a well known abstraction, therefore less “new” code to comprehend as i see familiar functions, making the code predictable to me.
- Callback: Blocks (React components) can register events with action chains (a sequential list of async functions) that will be called when the event is triggered. So it is defined in the react component. This abstraction of blocks, events, actions, operations and requests are the only abstraction required in the schema to build fully functional web apps.
Might sound crazy but we built full web apps in just yaml.. Been doing this for about 5 years now and it helps us scale to build many web apps, fast, that are easy to maintain. We at Resonancy[1] have found many benefits in doing so. I should write more about this.

- We’re considering building a coding agent for Lowdefy[1], a framework that lets you build web apps with YAML config.
For those who’ve built coding agents: do you think LLMs are better suited for generating structured config vs. raw code?
My theory is that agents producing valid YAML/JSON schemas could be more reliable than code generation. The output is constrained, easier to validate, and when it breaks, you can actually debug it.
I keep seeing people creating apps with vibe coder tools but then get stuck when they need to modify the generated code.
Curious if others think config-based approaches are more practical for AI-assisted development.
- was cloud computing ever a bubble. yes. did it stabilize. sure. but its a powerful utility that shifted and created new value. the only speculation is where and by how much.
the rush of new tech is always confusing, new tools requires new skills and time to find its place in the world.
