I have a hard time seeing how any other white-collar job can be as worried as software development. No other industry has the straight up replacement of their work, at a level, quality, and speed, that AI coding is. AI…

Can you expand on what "living a fulfilling life" is for you? Your post really resonates with me, but the rub is (at least for me) "living a fulfilling life" means other trade offs, and potential losses. Maybe…
Which btw is very similar to Lorpi
Agreed. I think coding agents have shown us one very important thing: It was never about the code. Your idea and how well you can execute on it, i.e. how well you understand the problem space, is what has always…
I don't know why this is getting downvoted. It's completely obviously that this is a 100% vibe coded slop project which is already supported with out of the box tools. There was, and is, almost zero need for this.
Yea. The people making these things are vibe coding them out the door before even doing the smallest little bit of market research. It's lunacy.
Seriously. Who gets suckered into this hype? I find the default MacOS terminal to be plenty. Start a new tab, start claude, rinse & repeat.
I don't get it. ChatGPT's Codex app allows you to use your machine, when its locked. It has full computer use, can code, open browsers, apps, etc. Why would we need a separate app for this?
You're right, I was being hyperbolic. Bugginess in software is a spectrum, and asking why we're not further along that spectrum toward being bug free, is really what the OP is asking. My answer still applies.
For the same reason that increasing headcount never really solved the bug problem. Flawless software isn't the goal, ever. Feature development is almost always the primary goal, and fixing bugs and performance issues is…

We're in a similar boat. Entire eng team went full AI about a year ago, and honestly we're struggling to find things to do. Features that would take weeks, take minutes. I just don't see how we keep going like this…
Honest question for devs out there... is anyone worried? I don't see enough frank conversation happening around this subject. Timelines. How long until salaries fall? Is it too early to stalk thinking about back up…
pretty fun! beat level 6 after about 4 minutes... should add some more levels :)
"at all" is probably a stretch, but agreed that the number one factor for a mile is cost. users will accept a surprising level of trash, if the price is cheap. engineers tend to think as engineers do, solving all…

whats your gripe with DHH? Honest question.
> ignoring the initially terrible Codex app Still needs a LOT of work IMO.
could you throw a react project (WEB) at it and get a native macos project out of it?
This. I swear the fear mongering is all about investor signaling and regulatory capture. It's so disgusting that anyone believes it. The only good news is that these models are genuinely helpful and we have competition…
I guess I understand why we'd want to flatten a COVID curve, but why do people want to flatten the LLM development curve? Don't we want the opposite? Isn't the goal AGI?
What exactly is "paced" in this context?
I don't think you really are struggling to understand, you just don't agree. Some people genuinely enjoy the process of thinking hard about a problem and writing the code that solves it. Literally the entire "flow" of…
