Good job, Microsoft.

Are these kinds of articles a new breed of rage bait? They keep ending up on the front page with thriving comment sections, but in terms of content they're pretty low in nutritional value.

So I'm guessing they just rise because they spark a debate?

I complained about the same thing, but apparently people take the bait.

Which is why I only quickly scan through the comments to see if there are new insights I haven't seen in the past few months. Surprise, almost never.

Is this for real, like do you really not see the difference? Not tryingto be snarky or sth, just struggle to comprehend this.

You compare apples to oranges here. From a short look at the provided link, i guess it doesn'tcompare at all because it's something completely different?

Link you provided seems to be Samsung or OneUI only, integrated with Good Lock. This seems to collect and present notifications together with the ability to search. Does not seem to be open source.

DoNotNotify allows you to restrict apps to only sending you certain kinds of notifications.

They could supplement each other but you can't compare them as far as i'm concerned.

I think that would have been an excellent answer if it didn't come with the first two paragraphs.

I couldn't tell the difference at a glance without being familiar with both apps.

Android 15/16 does allow you to control notifications even lower, at the level of notification category, but indeed the app must have chosen to use them.

OEMs like Samsung turn off that ability by default unless you toggle it in "advanced settings". Thank you Samsung!

Sometimes you are not writing Lord of the Rings.

Sometimes you are writing a marketing copy for a new Nissan that's basically the same as last year Nissan, yet you need to sell it somehow. Nobody will REALLY read it more than 2 seconds and your words will be immediately forgotten. Maybe some AI is good then.

Copy & paste will do the job as well. Just remember to update the year number with a tool we have had for decades named "find/replace". Since nobody reads it, nobody knows it's almost the same thing, and there is no chance you get fired because LLM made things up that you didn't review/catch.

Have you really never found writing code painful?

CI is failing. It passed yesterday. Is there a flaky API being called somewhere? Did a recent commit introduce a breaking change? Maybe one of my third-party dependencies shipped a breaking change?

I was going to work on new code, but now I have to spend between 5 minutes and an hour+ - impossible to predict - solving this new frustration that just cropped up.

I love building things and solving new problems. I'd rather not have that time stolen from me by tedious issues like this... especially now I can outsource the CI debugging to an agent.

These days if something flakes out in CI I point Claude Code at it and 90% of the time I have the solution a couple of minutes later.

Not everyone thinks this way. For sure, I don't enjoy every repetitive/tedious tasks or having to put out fires under time pressure, but I happen to be someone who enjoys solving problems. Many times, I helped others find and understand the root causes of bugs after they spend hours cluelessly debugging. (And often LLMs are completely lost as well, provide terrible suggestions or fixes) In an extreme case, I helped fix a bug an entire team of people (of several people) failed to address. And I always learn from such experiences, try to come up with solutions that would prevent it from happening in the first place, and think through the whole thing to be even more efficient at Debugging.

The point is that, LLMs can't always do all of this, they don't necessarily help you think about the root causes or address the human part of the causes, they don't help you build technical skills that you can use in the future. They fix it and it's done (possibly with a terrible, short time solution), unless the human wants to dive deep. For sure this happens all the time, in fact probably more than not, but LLMs are not going to help the situation.

In practice using someone else’s framework means you’re accepting the risk of the thousands of bugs in the framework that have no relevance to your business use case and will never be fixed.

Yet people still use frameworks, before and after the age of LLMs. Frameworks must have done something right, I guess. Otherwise everyone will vibe their own little React in the codebase.

Because frameworks don’t have bugs? Or unpredictable dependency interactions?

This is generous, to the say the least.

g947o · 8 hours ago
Frameworks that are (relatively) buggy and slow to address bugs lose popularity, to the point that people will spontaneously create alternatives. This happened too many times.

Serious question: what's keeping a competitor from doing the same thing and doing it better than you?
