Programmers are cooked.
Behold! My vibe coded website!
That looks exactly like mine! Did you copy me?
Nah, his AI was just trained on the same dataset.
I didn’t know those photos had gone public. I swear it isn’t what it looks like!
It’s asking for a password.
Edit: Never mind, I tried the one from my luggage and it worked.
It’s amazing i love the frontend!
Honestly, it looks like janky shit. That CSS looks like some moron cobbled it together.
At least you got the http server running.
Im so disappointed that this isnt a rick roll link
It might be for some of us
What was that bash.org quote where the guy hacks into 127.0.0.1 and deletes his hard drive?

My boss sat me down recently and was telling me about how I needed to adapt because AI was going to take my job soon. Somehow it was suppose to be an inspiring meeting about my career growth. I just walked away blackpilled at the stupidity of leadership in the company. Oh yeah, we are 1 year into an AI adoption program and most people stopped using it 6 months ago due to it making them look like idiots with it’s mistakes.

The pain of misplaced apostrophes is why I’m not a programmer
Modern compilers have got your back. Simple compile time syntax error are non issues these days for the most part.
I recently started and left a dev job after just over 2 weeks because the new boss was chugging the AI kool-aid. Luckily I got a late offer from another place I’d applied to and I was able to get the fuck out of there.
…works on my machine
Sorry, wrong link for some reason, it’s supposed to be http://192.168.1.36/
That is only your local IP, dumbass.
http://172.0.0.1/ is where it is at.
Hate to be that guy, but localhost is 127.0.0.1, not 172.0.0.1 (which is actually a public IP address)
It looks like the whole 172.0.0.0/12 block belongs to AT&T
Ooh, where do you find AT&T block allocations?
Thank you — is there a way to find a listing? I tried searching the other day (for unrelated reasons) but couldn’t find anything useful.
Eh… don’t want to be mean but that’s what’s called an “IP address” for Internet Protocol Address… but this one is for your LAN, aka Local Area Network.
So that won’t work, people outside your LAN can’t reach it. What you need instead is a domain. What most people don’t know though is that there is a special domain name anybody can use for free! Check this out, assuming your LLM did the right setup do all that step, making website, starting Web server then try :
https://localhost/ and voila, free domain from your newly generated websites!
… /s
Can I do that from Internet Explorer or do I have to use Safari?
That’s actually a great question, safer to ask your LLM directly! So helpful. /s
Entire website
Also known as the most basic thing you could ever do
Saw a generated site, but it just made up plausible image links and also went image heavy so it was a bunch of broken image icons as it linked to nowhere.
Haha your job is so done
I made an entire website for my ship using notepad by frankensteining together other websites. Everyone on board thought I was a genius. How wrong they are.
This reminds me of a video where a girl was like “yeah so you know all that streaming stuff is so expensive? Thanks to AI I coded my own Netflix streaming site…”
And there was this one comment like “Backend???” and she was like “Yeah I dont know what that is, but if you want a part 2 I can do that later” 😂
Just tell her about Jellyfin I guess
bro still on windows 💀
No hate, but I am relieved to switch back to Windows 10 after a year of Fedora. Partly because I need Windows for work, but mostly because Fedora and GNOME suck.
Never tried them, what did you hate?
id prefer fedora with kde for just working. but i personally use arch for gameing :3
I gave Claude a shot at guiding me through an install of a matrix home server the other day. It got about halfway through before it absolutely shat itself. I mean like going in circles and completely incapable of breaking itself out.
And that’s for a fairly easy sysadmin task. Not even doing it right, just doing it to the point where the service can be brought up and be accessible. I cannot believe anyone is under the impression that these bots are going to take anyone’s jobs. The only thing that’s going to “destroy jobs” is the rabid desperation management has to destroy labor.
Yeah that’s a common issue I’ve seen with Gemini and ChatGPT as well. They can do simple tasks but as soon as it’s something that requires more than a 5-6 steps, or if there are complications along the way they will get lost. Also ChatGPT will commonly just make up commands if it doesn’t actually know how to do something.
I will say that after I went back to my normal usage pattern of going as far as I could alone and then asking the chatbot what went wrong it did save me a ton of time by suggesting I check whether caddy was importing from
conf.d, which it wasn’t.I would have gotten there eventually, but not was it nice not having to hunt through snarky unhelpful forum comments on my own.
This was me in high school. In my first Intro to Computer Science class, they taught me how to make a website in html.
Nobody told me that you need a domain. Guess how I found out.
Well, technically you don’t need a domain. An IP is enough. If you don’t have your own IP (like a shared host) you’ll need to put it in a subdirectory but there is no need to have a domain to put something on the Internet.
Yes. My mistake. What I meant to say is that I didn’t realize you needed something to host the site on. I tried to send my friend the file and expected them to open it…from my computer.
I was a bit of a noob back in the day.
I had a similar problem in the late 90s except I was in my late 20s and a friend of mine got me into web developing. It took me a couple of weeks to realize I didn’t need to spend 30 minutes uploading my work via ftp over a 56K line to see the website. I could have just opened it up with a browser on my own computer. I wasted a lot of time.
Fuck man, I was talking about this exact shit today.
I’d sooner use Frontpage.
Frontpage Express is how I learned basic HTML.
Basically I’d make something look like how I wanted, then just delete all the extra trash and repeating tags until I knew enough of what it did to write my own.
Likewise.
Unfortunately everything else I learned was ethereal and went away, and I’ve got a learning disability that really doesn’t like it when a new system is slightly different than a previous system I’d learned.
I was all in on .shtml (anything but php or css), Shockwave/Macromedia Director 7 and Bryce for graphics.
I could never get back into it using the mainstream stuff.
I thought I used Coffezilla, but it looks like maybe it was CoffeeCup, except at a glance I’m not sure that’s a WYSIWYG editor. Maybe things changed in the intervening decades.
Same here! I started sprinkling in JavaScript from copy and paste snippets you’d find all over the web and eventually I moved on to PHP (for a small while) then Ruby on Rails.
I‘d sooner use a 25 year old pirated version of Macromedia Dreamweaver.
Somewhere, in the dephts of the ancient 56k web, exists a website I made with friends when we were in middle school. It’s actually still online, and half of the resources are pulled from urls like file:///D:/MegaSite/lol.JPG
This data has been lost forever, but yet, somehow, parts of that yesteryears afternoon at my friend’s are still here.
Angelfire was the peak.
frontpage was a rare microslop win
FrontPage was initially created by Cambridge, Massachusetts company Vermeer Technologies, Incorporated, evidence of which can be easily spotted in file names and directories prefixed _vti_ in web sites created using FrontPage. Vermeer was acquired by Microsoft in January 1996 specifically so that Microsoft could add FrontPage to its product line-up, allowing them to gain an advantage in the browser wars, as FrontPage was designed to create web pages for their own browser, Internet Explorer.
Man, Frontpage was the fucking bomb. I passed my computing class in highschool by just making websites in frontpage.
And it’s ten million lines of typescript on ten nested frameworks.
And the website: “Hello world!”
As a web designer (well, customizer/reseller for small businesses) I definitely thought I was done for when I heard AI could spit out a functional website in one prompt. Then I saw some examples and realized it’s just going to be another thing clients bring me, begging for a fix. No problemo, small upcharge.
Small upcharge? Unfucking a whole front end and backend should be more than small.
Which is funny, since even a non-techie can setup a website using wordpress.
A lot of them do.
or our sponsor, squarespace! use code “lemmygeddat” for a whopping 5% off your first day!
Hosting and making a website are very different tasks to me.
Sure, but very cheap and sometimes free tools help a complete beginner do both, without any real technical knowledge.
Don’t say the opposite. Just saying writing a web page yourself is much different to using some service.
Local storage? Wouldn’t it be saved to their OneDrive?
That’s the joke. Guys says his job is done for, by buddy building a website via chatgpt, except the guy knows nothing about how the internet works.
