this has been my sort of big tent alignment with AI people. If I'm getting good CLI tooling that _actually works_ (or fixes to existing ones that have been busted forever) then I'm pretty happy.
Things that make systems more understandable to the LLMs ... usually make things more understandable for humans as well. Usually.
The biggest issue I've found is that vibed up tooling tends to be pretty bad at having the right kind of "sense" for what makes good CLI UX. So you still have awkward argument structures or naming. Better than nothing though

- whattheheckheck 6mo agoAny textbooks or resources on getting better at naming things? The Programmers Brain book was my go to
- stavros 6mo agoThe Design of Everyday Things.
- kube-system 6mo agoThe conclusion I drew from that book is that I shouldn't be naming things.

- phyzix5761 6mo agoIt never made sense to me why cars and pedestrians need to share the same spaces. Why can't we have more efficient walking routes that are away from cars?
- noosphr 6mo agoBecause cars took over the streets from pedestrians between 1900 and 1930 and no one noticed. Hopefully when petrol hits $10 a gallon in the next few months more of the world will think about banning cars from high density areas.

- rtpg 6mo agoif you have roads shared with pedestrians and cars (and bikes!) you can build denser cities. I lived real downtown in Tokyo and my street was like "1.5" lanes wide (if cars were coming in both directions one basically needs to pull over and stop). I could just walk in the middle of the street. There was no sidewalk. No street parking of course. Cars would drive down at 15km/h or whatever, and slow to a crawl if people were in the street. Straight lines are efficient walking routes, and ... well... that might involve just crossing the street directly! Every layer of grade separation gets in the way of that. End result of all of this is less pavement to maintain, slower drivers (-> safer!), good walking and cycling conditions, etc etc etc.
