Does your team then manually decide the results by going over the PRs? I suppose you know what you're looking for now, but isn't this still quite painful?

Ok. I get what you're saying. I definitely agree with losing touch with the code, but I still review everything the agent writes, and I steer it heavily. My perspective is from what I observe. The entire industry (my industry) is embra

Exactly. Quality of code is a programming invention to make it easier to write and maintain correctly functioning applications. That is the entire purpose of "quality of code". If the end user experiences a correctly performing ap

The point is, if road engineers changed their process and materials, and to you it felt like driving on the same road, with the same wear and tear and potholes, you wouldn't even notice. If AIs can generate code that looks ridiculous t

I think a lot of us have stopped talking to each other about this. I see it the other way round to you. I see constant scepticism and doubt that LLMs can build anything useful, and whenever provided with examples, the goalposts just move. A

I enjoyed hearing about the stuff you've done. Would you mind talking about your experience making the 2 godot games? Which agent and model did you use? I've been wanting to dabble here and interested to hear stories.

I haven't fact checked anything here, I took the $7 million at face value. If he is generating that amount of money from his content creation, then I think my statement makes sense, right? I don't wacth/read his content at al

The reason is obviously that engagement drives his revenue, and correctness or facts have nothing to do with it. Everyone knows that content creators will maximise engagement, and clearly he has found an audience who are seeking out a certa

This comment is nonsense, and it is the usual propaganda based on an ideological bent. I'm sorry but I think you and your family have retained the class/caste based system of you original homeland and it is just manifesting in a w

That is only pension funds. By far the largest indirect holds of US stock are households, via retirement accounts, mutual finds, ETFs, etc. Yes, I agree, wealth inequality is massively skewed. But that is a different argument. In the end, i

No, it really doesn't. I think you're quite mistaken. Ultimately, most shares are held in funds which are pension or other personal wealth funds, and those are held by billions of ordinary people.

An business over a certain size will want people that are "responsible" or in other words liable for software issues.

Directed at the team working on gemini it seems. I'd work 60 hours a week for the compensation they're getting, without hesitation. I already work close to that for far less.

Very nice! Do you have any CLAUDE.md or AGENT.md files that influence it? I'd like to try this same thing and wondering what else feeds into it to produce that output?

Yes. Choose a time and country in history where you would like to be raising a family now as a "median person"? I bet it is within the last 50 years, and specifically in one of the developed nations and probably during the 1970-20

You can't be serious. It couldn't be more obvious what the poster was referring to, a drive by put-down comment with no attempt to discuss anything seriously is more highly upvoted than an objection to such a comment. What is this

I think the general population earning median wages will have very little sympathy for first world software engineers earning vast amounts of money. What are you going to tell them? Suddenly you're earning what they're earning for
