looks like HN has finally defeated the cloudflare voting ring

Vercel may be bad, but they have been a net positive to the web landscape, so many projects are alive because of them. And I truly respect the hard work the next devs put into their code and test suites. I'm surprised any self respecting dev even votes this up.

The last time Cloudflare vibe-coded something, it was a glorified proof-of-concept with TODOs up the wazoo.

I'm not sure who the hell you're talking about, but I'd guess from your comment that you have a pretty high opinion of yourself.

Wait a minute, can we at least wait until this dethrones next.js before making suck claims?

last time I tried to use nextjs in a cloudflare worker there was a lot of issues

> Code never was and never should have been the product in and of itself

Except that the code completely and precisely defines the actual product. Bad code => bad product.

> code should be sacred and revered by itself

As a production of the hand and mind, code should be revered - if only as the mark of the human or groups of humans that made it.

> the wrong group of people

The group of people who care deeply about the world around them.

Without spending the time on reading through all the details for the umpteenth “look what we built with AI!” article, I assume this is as valid as Anthropic’s claim about building a C++ compiler a few weeks ago where, when you looked under the hood, it was still relying on existing compilers.

Like OK, I really don’t believe the claims to begin with, but even if I do take them at face value, you just recreated something already existing and working for years?

Or just skip/migrate off of the Next.js and other JS SSR rats nets to Elixir and Phoenix LiveView - Claude and Codex are both very good with Elixir now: https://elixirisallyouneed.dev
