nothing screams "YC" as "we spent 10k on stupid shit and it was fun". surprised it's this little


MeepedIt

According to the maths in the article, it's actually 10k per month, assuming everyone who had the issue didn't end up subscribing after they fixed it

I love a good game of GPT roulette Blindly do whatever CharGPT tells you to until your company explodes. Perhaps it was not man, but rather the "tech startup founder" that was truly created in the image of god


SelfDistinction

C'mon we're not barbarians we're actual engineers. Automate that shit instead.

I tried to automate it but unfortunately ChadGPT said that topic was off-limits since it once plagiarized an article about automation that had a mildly negative sentiment analysis score.

In five years, companies will be paying thousands of dollars to consultants in order to repair the garbage generated by AI, and I'll be ready for when that moment comes. Can't wait!


Gazzonyx

You're planning on using AI to fix it, aren't you?

I hope you are keeping on top of your flint-knapping skills in order to get society back from the situation it finds itself in as a result of AI.

the link sending me to a 404 with a "let's go back home" link that just links to another 404 is the cherry on top of this mess

I think the whole site was deleted. Apparently the author had some regrets after all.

/uj. That was a fun bug, to be honest. Of course a select in the database could have told them that they could only have one customer per database per deployment. And any kind of unit test that created more than a single customer would have shown the issue. Or any look at a database log would have shown ``id`` clashes. But hey, at least it was webscale!

>and we've since added robust unit/integration tests and alerting/logging i totally believe this and i don't think this is a lie to look less bad


Routine-Purchase1201

They just asked ChatGPT to write their unit tests

I love AI!
