This reads like 2022 hype. It's like people stil do not understand that there's a correlation between exaggerating AI's alleged world-threatening capabilities and AI companies' market share value – and guess who's doing the hyping.

Comparing something like next.js to other frameworks doesn’t make much sense anymore given that most webdevs choose DX and easy deployment above anything else. Vercel’s growth is proof of that.

I am the only one shocked that no comparison or test or thinking of native development? Web dev are this closed to other languages? I came here for this kind of comparison because of the article. headline

The good and bad aspect of this approach to AI in tech is that it revealed really how many developers out there are merely happy with getting something to work and get it out the door before clocking out and not actually understanding the inner workings of their code.

Are CSRF attacks that common nowadays though? Even if your app is used by the 5% of browsers that don’t set the Origin header the chances of that being exploited are even more miniscule. Besides, most webdevs reach for token-based auth libraries before even knowing how to set a cookie header.

I wonder if the discrepancy in analysis comes from the way the participants are asked to view the picture. English and Japanese are vastly different languages and even a simple question can be translated in subtly different ways.

It's kind of depressing to read Daniel's article[1] on this issue given the rising "popularity" of these lazy attempts at cash grabbing. I hope they manage to combat the AI slop in a way that does not involve fighting fire with fire though.

A UI framework? What’s the other $608m for?

Just like the old Carlin joke. Made me chuckle.

It’s about time these types of articles actually include the types of tasks being “orchestrated” (as the author writes) that aren’t just plain refactoring chores or React boilerplate. Sanity has quite a backlog of long-requested features and the message here is that these agents are supposedly parallelizing a lot of the work. What kind of staff engineer has “80% of their code” written by a “junior developer who doesn't learn“?
