Read Test Driven Development by Example, Kent Beck. It's the original. It's very sensible. There's no requirement to get 100% coverage. It's meant to make things easier.

Extrinsic motivation vs intrinsic motivation. I don't draw to do better than the AI, I do it because I like drawing. You have more free time to do what you want. But maybe the goal was never to build the thing, it was to impose your in

Similar experience with my bachelor's thesis after I presented it. Supervisor: "Great job with this." Me: "The assessor didn't seem too impressed." Supervisor: "You should have sold it better." That w

The good ones understand that 3 weeks to a startup is like half a year to an established company, especially in the earliest stages. At a later stage, a VC may well take more time, but there's less damage and lower risk appetited. Anyo

Programming is just no flow most of the time. There's two popular fixes - TDD and vibe coding, which are probably more popular than they should be for these reasons. Flow does indicate rapid learning and growth, but in this field, you

It's not a junior developer. It's not a senior. You are not managing it. It's an agent. A machine. A tool. Like a vacuum cleaner. A car. An IDE. I treat it like a non-deterministic script. It does stuff. If the stuff does not

Startups focus on building assets, not revenue or profit. Companies like Bending Spoons focus on buying these assets and turn them into $$$$$$$$, not sustainability or growth.

I think having friends suicide does that. It sucks because you also see the patterns repeat and it feels like something solvable with intervention. A friend put it well - sometimes people are sick, and you can help them heal. And sometimes

Yeah, we did some tests. We're in UTC+8 (probably literally the opposite side of the world). We found it was great in the day, but degraded around midnight. The theory was that it gets worse on American peak time, but I wonder if it&#x

Replying from a BYD now. I wish HN could attach photos. It's literally quieter than a bicycle, except for a whirring when the car powers up. We've come across people and animals standing in the middle of the road because they didn

I do have a garage and 'fuel' is half the cost of my previous, smaller ICE. We're considering solar power to get it practically free. There's some nicer differences like leaving the air-conditioning on constantly because

Yeah, we do them quite often. Especially when some big company just sets up a chatbot where it's not asked for. It's #1 on OWASP's Gen AI list: https://genai.owasp.org/llm-top-10/

Probably an unpopular opinion, but I think it's fair. AI has hit skilled labor/professionals pretty hard and it buys time to give jobs to the locals who were affected by layoffs.

Yeah, I think Copilot is partly responsible for the huge gap between people who distrust AI coding and those who are excited by it. It appears to be the most used tool, which also about covers the opinion gap. A big part of the right agent

1) Steam hates AI. Steam is at least 80% of the PC market. If you were doing multi-platform, it's just too big of a loss. 2) The indie community is hostile towards AI. Expedition 33 was disqualified for barely any AI use. Even things

I stopped reading it at that point. I'm not against AI-written articles; I even think it's a little rude to accuse. But I agree. I think we do develop "antibodies" against this kind of thing, like listicles, clickbait, a

Growth = stress + rest Non-chill means constant stress. Chill means you have the flexibility to do either, or at least the autonomy and trust to stress yourself as needed.

It's best to just practice mindfulness in these periods. Literally just observe the world around you. Or observe yourself, your breath. Be silent and observe the thoughts that fly through your head like you would watch cars go by on a

Kotlin and Swift are both very similar, and where they are not, we don't really want the abstraction. I agree, it's cool, but I doubt we'd use it. I'm leaning towards Swift being the 'better' language, but even

Honestly wouldn't mind more competition in this sector. This one doesn't seem optional for the rest of us in the future and I don't like the idea of Scale AI being in charge.
