Looks like many are questioning the credibility of the author as a dev/engineer. Peter is the founder of PDFKit and well respected name in iOS circles for his contribution to .framework and ideas about building modular iOS apps. He may be overselling here, but pretty sure he can manage AI generated code


Your PDFKit is PSPDFKit.

Also I don’t think that there are more than a handful of people in the world who can properly manage a 1 million LOC codebase regardless of source. Even when you remove the ton of useless comments which his code has.

Also the first file which I checked: https://github.com/amantus-ai/llm-codes/blob/main/src/lib/__...

This is not how dates should be tested at all. Timestamp and stack are ignored with errors with parents. If you want really nice code then have one expect per test case. Useless comments. Type guards testing is a joke.

And these classes are very simple ones.

So no, he cannot manage this code. Especially because tests are basically the most important part of good LLM generated code, and LLMs will lie with them all the time.


Great job, is there something similar but for SwiftUI?


There are so many mentions of reading paper. Do papers like these exists for regular enterprise software devs like me who make apis in Dotnet/go, good knol of multiple major cloud tools, k8s etc, has developed couple of iOS apps.

I can do my job but I always wanted to learn and understand more. Family circumstances mean I can't afford to quit my job or go to school.


For a software engineer I would rather recommend implementing from a reference software implementation. There are for example tons of "Model XX from scratch" in Python - which you can translate to Dotnet/Go.

Implementing code from a paper is almost its own skillset. Papers are often math heavy and they are information dense, with lots of references to exiting works. They are designed for communicating to other researchers in the same field/niche.


I bet, India is on the top3. Pharmacy culture in India is liberal. U can walk into any pharmacy without prescription and buy most meds including Antibiotics. It's a different story online, but even then there are ways to get around.


why the downvotes?


He just explained that he’s using open source tools to take other people’s hard work and re-host it, using an account he set up seemingly just to promote this service. Looking at the website itself I don’t think it’s particularly offensive but I could see why people might not like it.


It doesn’t look like anything is being rehosted. The links go straight to the original blogs.


An AI summary of the article by definition contains information from the article; otherwise it would not be a summary. Whether or not you consider this rehosting is muddy but some people might, which is all my comment was saying.


per day, also very common in the Indian subcontinent. I sure think is addictive but symptoms attached to anxiety, suicidal etc - not so sure.


So you think tea itself is addicting? Milk tea is basically tea with some milk.

Tat's milk tea, almost 40g of sugar per bottle


Then its regular sugar addiction and not necessarily related only to milk tea. Milk tea does not need to contain sugar. Bubble tea chains usually give you the option to choose. Also when I visit indian friends some of them usually refrain from putting a lot of sugar into it, not bubble teavin this case but still milk tea.


and sugar - lots of it. Needs a control group that consumes equivalent quantities of sweet caffeinated soda.


Black tea contains caffeine, so yeah.


There are people who drink that much Diet Coke each day. I wonder if it's the same type of thing?


$10/Kg? In the US, I used to get the entire leg for ~$12-13(3.5/4kg) at African and Arab stores. The same in India would be around $30


I can't speak for the entire south, but it is usually goat in most part of Tamil Nadu except a few areas.


Is JS/Express/Apollo still the goto graphQL server implementation or C#(HotChocolate), Java, go etc are widely used too? On the client side(for mobile), AFAIK iOS(Swift) and Android(Kotlin) does not support GraphQL natively? are there 3rd party libraries that can be used?

Edit: Added Apollo


The "go-to" GraphQL server implementation varies based on language.

Here are the popular ones to my knowledge:

- Node.js: GraphQL Yoga + Fastify, Apollo Server

- Java/Kotlin: Netflix DGS (built on top of Spring Boot)

- Scala: Caliban, Sangria

- Python: Strawberry, Graphene Django

- C#: HotChocolate

  > "On the client side(for mobile), AFAIK iOS(Swift) and Android(Kotlin) does not support GraphQL natively?"
GraphQL queries are just HTTP POST queries with a JSON body. They're supported everywhere.

If you want specialized tooling for them, Kotlin and Swift both have great strongly-typed GraphQL libraries.

Apollo publishes libraries for both:

- https://www.apollographql.com/docs/kotlin/

- https://www.apollographql.com/docs/ios/


> Java/Kotlin: Netflix DGS (built on top of Spring Boot)

Is that really popular? I'd rather use graphql-kotlin (expedia), graphql spring (yes, recent Spring module), quarkus graphql (code 1st) or just about anything else than that...

> Node.js: GraphQL Yoga + Fastify, Apollo Server

Typegraphql is / was hugely popular; there's also an Express based Graphql server

Aside: there's also Rust and async-graphql


Apollo is also available for Elixir, where I have seen it much loved.


It appears that fastify can't keep their website up.


Apparently something got messed up with their cloudflare setup and the person with access is at a wedding or something.

I've been using json-api with graphiti in rails. And I gotta say the massive gain from it is that it's all rest and a trivial client impl from scratch if necessary.

Couldn't recommend it more.

Have to say. Most json-api impls suck, so graphiti has been a game changer for me.

N+1 are a problem buuuut it forces you into good model designs and good tools like graphiti and the latest rails show you the cause of the n+1s so it's not so bad to debug.


We've been using Hotchocolate for over a year now I n a project. And the experience has mostly been pretty good.

And pair this with their Blazor client called StrawberryShake. And your production levels are pretty nuts.

So to answer your question, yes people do use other alternatives


i would really appreciate an invite too. email is nfa379 @ gmail
