shiroyasha··on Open-source is not noble
That’s a fair point! For me, though, open-source was my gateway into the world of engineering, so I’ve always had a bit of a soft spot for it. Without it, I would be nothing.
shiroyasha··on Hiring in the Age of AI
I still don't think that AI is that advanced.
shiroyasha··on Parallel AI agents are a game changer
Exactly! To make it more clear, here is how I approach my day:

9-10am: I comb through our issue list, figuring out which issues are well defined, which need more input or design decision. => I pick a hand-full, lets say 10 that I kick off to run in the background, and lets say another 10 for further specification.

10-2pm: I thinker with 10 issues to figure out the exact specs and to expand the requirement list.

2pm-6pm: I review the code written by the agents, one by one. I kick off for further work things that need more input, or merge things that look good.

I don't claim to have lots of experience with this, I've been only doing it for a couple of weeks, but I do feel that some of your comments are disingenuous.

> Any other way multiple agents work in harmony in a single repo (filesystem/directory) at the same time is a pipe-dream with the current status of the MCP and agents.

Every agent runs in a separate VM on GitHub.

> Let alone being aware of each other (agents), they don't even have a proper locking mechanism.

Never claimed this. Feels like a strawman argument.

I agree, async does feel like a better description. I wish I used that term for the title.

Heh, damn. Made a typo at the worst spot

The same work as any senior software engineer reviewing his teams work, imho.

Web dev cody is great. I recommend him.

I (author) sometimes stream my work here as well https://www.youtube.com/@operatelybackstage.

Yes. AI assisted software engineering is still software engineering. I don't see that part changing anytime soon.
