Big picture, IMO most devs (especially more junior ones) are far better at writing code than reading it, that’s part of the allure of green field projects. No, you don’t trust any LLM output, just as you shouldn’t trust code you get from Go

Not to take anything away from the story’s content, but fuck that mobile site is bad, content jumping around made it virtually unreadable.

Personally I like how PureScript has done it, as essentially an eager Haskell, they just implemented laziness in a library, you loose some of the elegance of laziness by default, but most of the time I want eager expressions anyway, and whe

Regardless of who said it and what they meant, I don’t want more code to write tests for, more pages to read through when stuff breaks, more material for new engineers to learn. You can always start copy-pasting and make a mess later - less

In my mind this is a lot more about tooling and platform than language, library, architecture, etc. I have a project that’s quite complicated and built on fast-moving tech, but with every element of the build locked down and committed in SC
