Do you know what I like more than AI in my IDE (which I adore, by the way)? It's an IDE that respects the developer.

Yep, fwiw there's often live coding interviews done in the editor of your choice that require AI to be off. As in even if you love AI and use it a lot you should have the ability to turn it off.

  Aw shucks, I guess that rules out Notepad on Win11 then.

  The ones I’ve done (as of late last year), they were okay with AI autocomplete but not a full prompting/agentic workflow. They wanted me to architect the solution, but were okay with it filling in basic for loops.

  I would actually start interviewing with AI as well. How well they prompt and how good they are at reviewing AI slop?

    Yeup, this exactly. If they're going to be allowed to use claude-code/copilot day to day, how well they review the ai-generated code is going to be huge signal, as well as they could explain what happened. Also, if they're jsut blind vibe-coding something, without creating a nice quick spec for the LLM, that would also be a signal. Also, makes for very easy follow on questions during the interview.

  I assumed they meant having the option to turn AI off was them respecting the developer.

    I hand write all my code directly in binary.
    - vouaobrasil 1y ago
      I do that too, and then execute it by hand as well, looking up every instruction on paper and changing the registers on paper as needed.

  I fucking love Sublime!

    Yeah! Fast, good looking, no AI integration, ability to turn off blinking cursor and customize, and paying for it supports a small company in Australia rather than a huge, soulless megacorp.
