Hello! Are you interested in artisanal, handcrafted software lovingly assembled by master programmers?
You will be.
You will be.

🅱🅻🆄🅴🅱️It's like, if I had a musician right now who I could pay $1000 and they would deliver I would do it right now, but the time and energy cost of validating people is so high that it's hard unless you have someone you trust.
Businesses I think run into the same problem and so they throw a bunch of money at stuff they hope will be a magic pill.
Dumb market forces don't help. The .com bubble is still firmly in mind.

Mark Burton@mttaggart Up until the word 'software' I was.
@markhburton Problem with software?
RootWyrm 🇺🇦
@mttaggart that depends.
Does it involve AWS, Google, Azure, Docker, Kubernetes, 'the cloud,' or integrating with 'SaaS'?

Softwarewolf@mttaggart I can make for you some very tasty spaghetti code, topped with a home-made open sauce.

"Ivan replied that code is either correct or incorrect; there’s no subjective determination of whether it’s high or low… if a coder writes code poorly, the program simply won’t run" If an engineer ever says that to you, run the fuck away. The fact it runs doesn't mean it's: - right - secure - maintainable - efficient or can handle anything except the single case you've tried. Every time you scratch the surface of a vibe coder, you'll find delusionally low standards. https://mastodon.world/@longreads/115072087038769334
John Brewer@mttaggart I came up with the motto for https://jera.com years ago as a joke. Sadly it’s become more and more serious over time.
