I don't find criticism like this particularly compelling. Most products (written by humans) have the same failings. The few that aren't are exceptions to the rule or develop very very slowly and carefully.

You forgot the part where you give it unfiltered access to everything. (Not that I endorse that. I find peoope doing such wildly irresponsible.)

If a principal doesn't have the skills to mentor juniors, plan and define architecture, review work and follow a good process, they really shouldn't be considered a principal. A domain expert? Perhaps. A domain expert should fe

I'm 50. I've been coding since the 6th grade. I'm a director for my org but still have to be hands on because of how small we are. I only ever wanted to code. I've spent decades developing mentorship, project management

He posted his not very impressive apology as images not text that is easily indexed. I do think that was purposeful and manipulative and very much makes me question his motivation. If I'm missing the original posting in text I'd

You're not wrong, but I could also argue the same about creating a new CLI or custom API. Now I know there's some expectation that APIs and CLI tools don't change willy-nilly, and that's not the case for MCP endpoints (

That's interesting, but that still sounds like something a proper auth/token permission system would more than address. You're also actively choosing to limit what functionality MCP provides, which is fine, but there are man

I get that. Should and DO are different. But you aren't addressing my Streamable HTTP question which is the heart of what I asked.

That makes some sense. But one can make the argument given how easy it is to create CLI tools and add new API endpoints, enhancing them is still a better approach than creating and MCP. I'm not pro or anti-MCP myself. I just haven&#x

That's easily solved by wrapping it in a skill. And every time it fails, once you are done you ask it to update the skill with what it learned. A couple iterations later and it will be solid.

Could you expand on this some more? I'm not quite following. I agree with the sandboxing challenge of a CLI, although I think any CLI (or MCP) wrapping an http API should be subject to a sane permissioning system that's a first c

Do you mean wrap the CLI with an MCP? I don't get that approach. I wrapped the Jira cli with a skill. It's taken a few iterations to dial it in but it works pretty damn well now. I'm good, yet my coworkers keep having prob

"Stop asking me to apply the plan. I will tell you when I'm ready." That alone drives me batty. I can easily spend a couple hours and multiple revisions iterating on a plan. Asking me me every single time if I want to apply i

I tried to use podman desktop for a bit but I ran into some screwy compatibility issues. It just wasn't as smooth as docker. I really really want an alternative to docker desktop. I don't like the path they're going down. I d

Hmm. I think you misread my comment. I never said anything about businesses caring about quality. I meant strong engineers will care about quality but we'll eventually be drowned out by those (individuals and businesses) who don't

I'm going to take issue with AI destroying the internet. Our short attention span profit driven culture was already well on it's way to trashing everything that was good. AI is only accelerating the inevitable.

I haven't read the article yet but this conversation reminds me of Docker. Lots of people "didn't get it." I told them at the time: if you don't get it you aren't ready for it yet so don't worry about it.

That's when you use an LLM to respond pointing out all the ways the PM failed at their job. I know it sucks but fight fire with fire. Sites like lmgtfy existed long before AI because people will always take short cuts.
