Is it Ludditism to not want to get PWNed spending $3k a month?

Is the thank you to Claude sarcasm? That seems like a fairly long logical leap, and LLMs have no ideological motivation

> jc is open source. If you have improvements, have your Claude open a PR against mine. I don’t accept human-authored code.

Is this sarcasm? If not, I wonder why.

Hi! I'd be interested in contributing to V2 if you're open to it - is there something you need help with specifically?

+1, it feels very much like a case of _feeling_ more productive because you’re outputting more …stuff…, but IME, it’s easy to produce a lot of stuff that isn’t useful and just creates a productive vibe (pun intended)

What happens when OpenAI’s burn dries up their cash?

New comment by weakfish in "Show HN: Claude Code skills that build complete Godot games"

weakfish — Tue, 17 Mar 2026 02:20:44 +0000

I think the software engineer types in this thread misunderstand what makes game developers tick. A lot of people here do game dev as a way to explore new ways to code. My sister is an indie dev and to her, code is an unavoidable means to an end (creating a game). So many games are absolutely spaghetti on the inside because the creator is deeply uninterested in the art of code. So to that end, LLMs are actually an awesome thing to enable creators to experiment more freely.

FWIW, I’m a platform engineer who is actively mourning the loss of reliability and care given to production code. I just think games aren’t an area where this is nearly as much of an issue.

hard disagree, Zed, for example, feels miles better than VS Code

Yo Ryan! I get your emails! I was just reading this thinking “man he should’ve tried TRMNL”

I love my original one and am planning to get a model X when budget permits

I don’t necessarily contest that, but I also wouldn’t trust the current administration to be the ones to succeed in that undertaking in a way that promotes lasting peace in the country/region. And no, I wouldn’t trust Biden/Obama/Bush either.

Well of course it’s not black or white, it’s nuanced as everything in life is.

But my larger point is that I don’t trust the current US administration to engage in regime change in a beneficial way as perhaps the US admin in 1945 did. You’re right that those examples and some others are good ones. But I believe the odds are that this situation would be one of the worse ones.

Do I support the Iranian regime? Hell no! I just also don’t think the US invading is a solution that would bring long term peace and prosperity.

That was 81 years ago. Iraq was 20. You’re either being willfully obtuse or don’t believe recency is more indicative.

Idk, I’ve never seen any left wing folks actively support the Iranian regime. I think the difference is what you noted, the US support for Israel vs. intervention in Iran.

I, and many I know, would love to see the Iranian regime fall, just not via US regime change which tends to make things worse.

Parent comment is a joke I think, but there’s something ironic (Poe’s law?) about it being possibly _not_ a joke

I don’t understand the rationale here; it seems all this could be good for is provocation?
