076: From nginx to Caddy and we both had LLM quality issues/concerns

We hop into the call and start recording, and what we found, we had both issues / concerns about quality of LLM produce code. Morten is reviewing some aspect of his project before releasing the public version and found some interesting thing that would make it hard to justify leaving them there. I had very similar issues, entering into a full refactor of a Go backend server I let the LLM cook for a rare time in Go, and decided at some point that enough is enough and decided to refactor the code.

It's not like it's big surprise, and I think we're a lot in that situation. When you truly start to review the code that is generated, let's just say that sometimes it's not the best work you'd have done yourself. It's quicker though, no question there. But at what cost.

I also finally ditched nginx and installed Caddy for my production servers.
