This sort of rule is extremely common in EU legislation. GPDR, for example, only allows standing in court for governments. You don't get to sue for your GPDR rights, you can only beg the government if your rights got violated (not the police, not the courts, not parliament, the executive). Or "the minister" as they say here. In practice this means the ministry of justice has an office, which has nothing to do with the judicial system, and you can send a letter to them. Of course this means governments and favored companies are effectively not bound by the GPDR.
Thank you for mentioning it. I think you got downvoted because I had already mentioned that in my comment. The PDF looks unreadable to my on this specific page as the layout is messed up.
I agree. Based on my very subjective and limited experience (plus friends/colleagues), when it comes to producing solutions, what you get from AI is what you get from your 2-day hackathon—then you spend months making it production-ready.
And your starry-eyed CEO is asking the same old question: How come everything takes so long when a 2-person team over two days was able to produce a shiny new thing?!. sigh
Could be used for early prototyping, though, before you hire your first engineers just to fire them 6 months later.
Yeah but you get the two days of hacking in 15 minutes.
And I highly doubt you spend months, as in 5+ weeks at the least making it production ready.
What even is "production readiness?" 100% fully unit tested and ready for planetary hyper scale or something? 95% of the human generated software I work on is awful but somehow makes people money.
First of all, you can rarely write down in English, what you want in 15 minutes… It’s even common to have longer specification, than its implementation. Just look at tests. Especially, if you want to do something which was never done before, the disparity can be staggering.
Claude Code for example is also not that quick at all. It produces some code quickly, but even scaffolding three hello world level example projects together definitely takes more than an hour. And that’s with zero novelty. The first version of code is done quickly, but the continuous loop of self corrections after that takes a long time. Even with Serena, Context7, and other MCPs.
And, of course, without real code review. That’s easily hours even with just few thousands lines of code, if it uses something which you don’t know. But I know that almost everybody gave up understanding “their” “own” code, during vibe coding. Even before AIs, it was a well known fact, that real code reviewing is hard, and people rarely did it.
AI can make you quicker in certain situations, but these “15 minutes” claims are totally baseless. This is one reason why many people are against AIs, vibe coding, etc. These stupid claims which cannot hold even the smallest scrutiny.
There are billions of other possible reasons, like our coding skills can be different, your hackathon experience can be completely different than mine, our care of quality can be different, even during hackathons, our coding speed can be different, etc.
