I agree it’s not perfect; I still only use it very sparingly, I was just just saying as an alternative to trusting everything it does out of the box.
Hi! I’m Katherine, or webkitten. I’ve been on the internet since our family got our first computer - a Tandy Sensation.
Yes, I went to computer camp as a kid and learned how to program BASIC on Radio Shack TRS-80 Model 4.
I’m trans, queer, and bisexual. #actuallyautistic
I started programming with PHP in the mid 90s and haven’t stopped. I’m an advocate for the open web; I used Netscape as long as I can remember.
I have an obsession with Hello Kitty, Moogles, and Squishmallows.

Don’t just use it as a drop in replacement for a programmer; use it to automate menial tasks while employing trust but verify with every output it produces.
A well written CLAUDE.md and prompt to restrict it from auto committing, auto pushing, and auto editing without explicit verification before doing anything will keep everything in your control while also aiding menial maintenance tasks like repetitive sections or user tests.

Open it; it’s probably a banger promo from Money, Inc.
Pfft; rewrite it in DHTML and ActiveX.


Well Well Well.
Looks like the shoe is on a different foot.
Me happily using Guzzle.
Really cause only under one political party my life as a trans person wasn’t being put in danger.

Wait , hold up. Has it been “Cutie Bittorrent” this whole time??
Jokes on them it’s just a former Initech engineer.


I’m more surprised that it’s a normal UA instead of something like AppleWebkit/Gecko/ChromeSafari 547.0


Oh I mean, I think you’re right. I don’t allow it to commit OR create PRs. I think that’s silly; in fact I specifically instruct it NOT to do those things because I want to verify everything.


I think when you know the possibility of hallucination, you become more vigilant; I think the key point is to not use it as a exclusive source but as an extension.


Well I basically tell it to not just do all the code and dump it out to me; I instruct it to explain the rationale, reasoning, and code and then provide external links for additional reading on the subject instead of just doing, I turn it into an instruct model so I can at least expand on my knowledge and then not have to rely on it as much the next time.
Basically, yes, like a Stackoverflow model from the early 2000s.
For instance, something like this: "
When talking about subjects involving programming and coding, the key goal should be instructional and informative to not only include code and samples but also how they work so in the future I can continue and expand on my knowledge. Also suggest places to expand and learn in the future on any programming or development topic. NEVER auto commit or create pull requests in my repositories without asking and waiting for a confirmation first. I prefer to review all code first for learning purposes and QA purposes."


The problem isn’t AI integration in code editors; the problem is people who let it think for you and blindly accept the results.
It’s great for automating repetitive tasks and setting up frameworks but you’re bananas if you let it commit for you.
It’s why if I have to use AI integration, I’ll specifically prompt it to give guidance and links to interesting articles on how do do things and have it teach me how to do things not just dump all the code out already completed.


Look at Kacsmaryk and mifepristone.
Look at Comstock.
