Most coding tools have rules or plan files that help provide context across chats. I spend most of my time editing these files. It's as if I am training a junior dev.

But the conversation is about people who use them...

It's hard for me to understand why someone would comment about AI copilots eroding skills when they've only used code completion tooling for fewer than two hours.

This is people talking about the issue, not "screaming."
125.
by jf22 1y ago
Is this "screaming?"

by jf22 1y ago
I follow the pro/anti natalist space and I'm not sure if anybody is "screaming" at people to have more kids.

What is to blame?
128.
by jf22 1y ago
Idk about this. Every dev I know that has lost or left a job in the past year found another one without too much struggle. Cycles take longer and are more annoying but companies are definitely hiring.

I thought so too until I tried to learn AI tools. I'm a mediocre dev but I'm at least 10x more productive with AI tooling.

>claims made without supporting evidence are as bad faith as it gets. People are sharing their experiences. Every comment on the internet doesn't have to have scientific rigor behind. I just want to point out you've insulted, m

Framing being productive with AI code gen as being similar to a physically impossible process is as bad faith as you can get.

by jf22 1y ago
Yes, I do. You didn't challenge, you insulted. You can ask how they ensure quality, what the review process is like, what QA is like, how do humans keep up with that pace of change, etc.

What AI code gen tools have you tried?
134.
by jf22 1y ago
The discussions about AI code always devolve into "derision" comments like this. "You are a dumb vibe coder producing bad slop" You don't know anything about the code, the project, the person, but feel justified to

The prefix in neo-liberalism has more to do with the ideas not whether it is "new."

Doesn't it matter more about who they are today rather than who they were 180 years ago?

The colonists didn't have anything near this level of technology though...

Better than getting shocked all day or feeling shitty after a transplant because of the drugs you have to be on forever.

At this point why spend 5 hours refactoring when I can spend 5 minutes shot gunning the changes in? At the same time refactoring probably takes 10 minutes with AI.

>“Management” trying to replace people with it is a function of perceiving people as cogs. Is it? Isn't this just what happens in a capitalist system?

Other countries with access to phones and TVs but not mass produced foods stay leaner.

Start doing 6 hour days instead of 12. Why would you do 12 hour days if you don't like the job?

When the loom came out the people who loved weaving by hand stopped being as valuable. That's where we are right now. The best bespoke hand-crafted coders are far less valuable than they used to be. It sucks for the weavers who loved t

> The time you save when vibe coding is offset almost 1:1 by the time you need to verify the AI’s output I haven't experienced this at all, especially when you can ask the AI to generate unit tests based off of specs. I'm manua

You'd need to know the frequency of each crime to determine if enforcement was different.

Not to nitpick but smelling like pot is not a crime.

I said your interpretation was immature, not you. This is not a mature thing to say: " I eat breakfast while reciting the declaration of independence."

I'm not sure which part of my comment used an aspect of you to undermine the credibility of your argument. So many people get ad hominem wrong. I'm intrigued that someone who made a bad faith comparison like you would be so aghast

This is an immature bad faith interpretation. The thing is there are loads of people making these claims and they aren't that extraordinary. The claims for coding productivity increases were extraordinary 12 months ago, now they are fu

I think it matters very much if the person next to me is 2x as productive and I'm not.
