Isn't that something you just open a devtools for and have fixed in like 2 minutes?

For me, it got frustrated debugging on a real LPDDR4 controller/phy and having me in the loop slowing it down, so it wrote an HW emulator to be able to run the original LPDDR4 training aarch64 binary from the manufacturer, to see what register writes it was making and to compare with the opensource rewrite it was implementing.

Mildly amusing. :)

$12 in tokens and the OP wasn't even at the computer. OP was working on a personal matter, arguably way more valuable than fixing a CSS scrollbar.

People burning tokens for the most beginner HTML/CSS problems and writing about it is concerning.
We are at the point where AI starts to seriously impact abilities. Sure, a 2 line CSS fix is the solution, but the human “behind the wheel” has already prompted 6 times and gotten 80% there. It’s been “easy” thus far. No shot they are going to FINALLY look at and edit the code. It’s just one more prompt and the agent will probably fix it, right?

It’s wild. I’ve been in the situation. 80% into a project I COULD probably take over, but realistically? 2 more lines of me prompting could fix it, it’s too easy to avoid the hard work of understanding the code, logic, architecture, etc…

Not if you're an LLM influencer! Gotta keep up with the downpour of blog links or you'll look like you're falling behind on the latest and greatest.
