One hundred percent. Leadership consolidating around like the rebirth of offshoring.
For the record all your prompts are tracked and easily viewable by whoever oversees it at your company. Don't prompt more than you have to and certainly don't give it your best ids. This is value at scale.
For the AI frontier, I find my windows PC just about useless unfortunately. Too much tooling and package doesn't adapt to WSL+windows host well. I've shifted my entire dev experience to my mbp which used to be my backup. Can't imagine the new generation of vibe coder will even consider a windows box.
What would it look like to regularly react to source data changes? Seems like a big missing piece. Event based? regular cadence? Curious what people choose. Great post though.
The people for whom I've seen "coding is the hard part" are typically promoted out of the way or fired. They never entered a flow like those who considered it easy and addictive. The latter are the pillars of the eng team.
My feed isn't as bad as this one, mostly current events, tech, music, politics which are my interests. Trolls/ai/bots are everywhere, but so are people callling it out, so if anything I would guess engagement is up. To be fair, my politics seems to be around 60/40 agree/disagree with my political preference which I actually think is a massive improvement over what it used to be which was 90% agreeable to me. I enjoy engaging on pages of the opposing view.
Why are we still supporting this person? His cars are being outclassed internationally and he's directly meddling in this countries politics. He spectacularly failed (or wasn't it blatantly misled) the CA government with regard to the tunneling, and damaged the public sector while shutting down oversight and regulatory bodies against his companies.
Where is the benefit? These awesome tech demos? It just screams charlatan to me on an epic scale. I see no reason a government shouldn't step in to assume control if its "too big to fail".
This is one of the craziest things I've seen lately. The molts (molters?) seem to provoke and bait each other. One slipped up their humans name in the process as well as giving up their activities. Crazy stuff. It almost feels like I'm observing a science experiment.
Are people running into mismatched code vs project a lot? I've worked on python and java codebases with claude code and have yet to run into a version mismatch issue. I think maybe once it got confused on the api available in python, but it fixed it by itself. From other blog posts similar to this it would seem to be a widespread problem, but I have yet to see it as a big problem as part of my day job or personal projects.
I would really like to see them split the businesses. The software dept shouldn't take nearly this much time to release new versions. I get moving UIs to a reasonable resolution was a big task but they felt so dead for so long
There is no protected class from malevolent government. Everyone from oligarchs down to the have nots can be targets. Let's not keep relearning that lesson.
I don't see how any sort of immortality can be supported by the infrastructure of the world. It's based on people dying, civilization has factored it in. How could you manage resources for populations that never disappeared? No immortal organism exists, I'm pretty sure Darwin already solved this question for us.
Maybe guard your investments, but the big question back then was "is the internet really that good, will it stick around" and the reality is it won argument hands down. The same thing will prove true about AI.
