I am often picky about my/our time being wasted by low-effort comments but in this case I actually was myself coming into this thread assuming the actual tool being discussed was itself going to be an LLM-based solution; and, when it wasn't, all I was thinking was "aren't we in the future? isn't this just something people are going to ask an AI to handle now?".

Hell: a friend of mine claims he asked Claude (using some plug-in in his IDE) to port his app from Firebase all the way to PostgreSQL and it just did it... and it mostly worked well enough to save him a ton of time typing and looking up syntax for stuff, and I think it is now in production?

I do agree, though--and maybe this was your core point--that maybe this "let's ask Gemini" comment should be left by someone who would also know if the answer was correct rather than just saying "no clue but". Although, honestly, even having the output seems useful here (and again: I am someone constantly unhappy about people asking questions they can Google and other such filler content).

I agree: the comment was on-topic, included technical information (dual table?), and AI accuracy/usefulness is of interest to most readers. Maybe in a year I'll think such a comment is bad, but not today.

In now interested in your friends setup. Do you have more details?
