You know how bad CSS is when even claude can't fix the most basic errors. Just tried converting 40 lines of code from Flexbox to CSS grid and it wasn't even close.
@neetcode1 it's not about the flexbox, pattern matching token predictors just don't work for dynamical systems that well
@neetcode1 My prediction is we’ll see new languages and frameworks introduced claiming high benchmark scores across models already.
@neetcode1 Using these models for css is like talking to the smartest person in the world but they were also born completely blind.
@neetcode1 CSS has a way of humbling even the most advanced AIs – its quirks are legendary!
@neetcode1 I don’t think that’s a css problem - it’s more a visual reasoning problem given primitives other coding tasks require less abstract cohesion
@neetcode1 Yeah, Grid and Flexbox never play nice when you try to swap them out like that.
@neetcode1 css is just doing random shit and praying it works
@neetcode1 I thought Claude sonnet was doing a pretty good job with tailwind until I actually looked and realized it that about 80% of the classes did nothing and weren't needed
@neetcode1 Claude just had the accumulated skill issue of all the generations CSS is awesome and is getting more awesome by the day It has only one issue which is you never know how to write it cleanly
@neetcode1 Bro, Why are you not posting on YouTube? we missed you
@neetcode1 Try Gemini 2.5 pro, I guarantee you will be satisfied
@neetcode1 AI is not that good at debugging or updating CSS (at least yet), It can surprise you with producing something beautiful just because it saw something similar in the training data.
@neetcode1 How could we get rid of css and make something better?
@neetcode1 Yes, because they don't think, how much money will they lose on power if they did ?... they are like employees they only follow orders ... Give it a whole grid design system from & instructions then watch it break again
@neetcode1 Tell me about it. I have been trying to get a column based sections. 4 prompts later it’s still messing up. I am wasting my tokens here
@neetcode1 Because CSS is a very visual and interactive thing. Claude can't see your screen, let alone click and scroll around.
@neetcode1 If “even human” was mentioned instead of “even claude” I would’ve been shocked. Claude is a f****** machine.
@neetcode1 css is just fine
@neetcode1 When you guys started dev ? And why r y using ai go solve your daily problems with your brain
@neetcode1 Man if Claude can't do it I could never lmao, CSS is indeed garbage.
