I have about 6 months of coding experience. All I really knew was how to build a basic MERN app

I’ve been using Sonnet 3.5 to code and I’ve managed to build multiple full fledged apps, including paid ones

Maybe they’re not perfect, but they work and I’ve had no complaints yet. They might not scale to become the next Facebook, but not everything has to scale

What do you do if your app has a bug that your LLM isn't able to fix? is your coding experience enough to fix it, or do you ship with bugs hoping customers won't mind?

What's the point of this question?

Everybody ships nasty bugs in production that he himself might find impossible to debug, everybody.

Thus he will do the very same thing me, you or anybody else on this planet do, find a second pair of eyes, virtually or not, paying or not.

I haven’t encountered any serious bugs - mostly because I know what I’m capable of and what Sonnet is capable of. I don’t tackle things that are far too ambitious and focus on ideas I want to experiment with or ideas I can build the MVP for

If I do encounter situations that Sonnet can’t fix - usually because it has outdated knowledge - I just read the latest documentation
