What interests me is what the “stink” looks like and feels like to you and why you find it so off putting. Let’s get into the weeds. I realise I sound like a therapist.

I really, really wish that posts like this would give _specific examples_ of generated code they thought was sub par and what they did to remedy it. It’s not that I don’t believe that they found the output lacking in some way, it’s more that I read the post thinking, “I feel like Claude et al are way better programmers than me but this person is saying they’re more skilled, I’d love to see what their specific issues with generated code were and how they fixed them”. I mean, even one or two short examples would be amazing; without them I just come away with so many questions.

I came to say thanks for the link to sgnt.ai on Jev, then realised you're the author! Well, thank you so much, I feel informed :)

I don't understand how this is different from oai "structured output" (and whatever the similar paradigm was on Sonnet ~3.7 back then) which everyone moved on from. On their gh they say:

"Jev is TypeSafe's closed service for runtime-defined semantic decisions. This project reproduces that interface pattern with open models; it does not reproduce Jev's undisclosed model or training"

As someone else pointed out it isn't actually Jev... can someone enlighten me

Yes the site seems to be all surface level marketing with no detail to be found, not a great sign

I’d say it’s a pretty big differentiator

I would like more information on what Degoogled means and whether it’s still possible to install 3rd party apps by some other means. Nice looking device, I expected it to cost more. Also, does this only work in the US rn?

Since you can’t run Graphene on non pixel devices, this seems like a big feature

Why should it need to eclipse them? I think you are either ignorant or naive if you can’t see how this could be politically motivated.

At least this one can claim being fully open to differentiate it

The point being I liked the general offering including the AI _to begin with_. Once they went OTT with it it killed the product for me to the point of not wanting it with or without

Warp was so promising to begin with - super clean and polished UI, AI features that actually made sense, really good dev outreach & PR. Over time, they started cramming more and more AI in everywhere, took over half the input area and you could just see there was no coming back. This is why VC backed software will always stink in the end. I use ghostty now.

Well, when the author eventually gives up trying to sell people names of apps and the domain expires, I’m sure it will present good value when it gets bought and repurposed as a porn site; the first two apps under quick utilities are CreamShot and DripCleaner?!

I can’t look, so many arrows poorly aligned with text - how can these developers live with themselves!

It does matter, but how long do you think it takes to get right? It's a follow up prompt or a few tweaks by hand. I also have an /a11y skill for it that's tailored to exactly the things it sometimes doesn't get right first time round. Further, while it may not one-shot that stuff every time, with a little setup and the right AGENTS/CLAUDE md - it's usually not far off.

Another thing that helps is pointing it to patterns in an existing codebase (e.g. "use the box-link pattern for cards, as shown in [..]").

EDIT: The point being that even if they make mistakes that are easy to spot and fix _now_, you'd have to assume that in the very near future those kinks will be ironed out - I mean, the capabilities are only going in one direction.

It really feels as though my 20 year career as a front end developer is coming to a very abrupt end; at least as I have know it these past two decades.
