That’s going to give you all a ton of job security in a year when we realize that prompt first yields terrible results for maintainability.

I learned about kakoune from helix. I played with both of them to figure out which one I preferred and ended up choosing kakoune for simplicity. It’s a fantastic editor and my cfg is 50 LoC which is just fine for me. As long as helix doesn’

It’s not that it just makes mistakes but it also implements things in ways I don’t like or are not relevant to the business requirements or scope of the feature / project. I end up replacing any saved time with QA and code review and I

I use https://pipe.pico.sh for this use case. It’s a pubsub over ssh. It’s multicast so you can have multiple listeners on the same topic, and you can have it block or not block the event.

I’m constantly using code agents to work on feature development and they are constantly getting things wrong. They can refactor high level concepts but I have to nudge them to think about the proper abstractions. I don’t see how a multiagen

I just looked this up so might not be fully accurate but it seems most private sector “engineers” don’t require a license. You only need a PE license when providing a service to the public. That is quite a strict band on the title.

Next is the worst framework I’ve ever used next to rails. It’s pure overhead for most apps.

OpenClaw is not going to be a thing in 6 months. The core idea might exist but that codebase is built on a house of cards and is being replicated in 10% of the code. I don’t think anyone is arguing against code agents being good at prototyp

You definitely cannot. Code org, architecture, and system design are senior level roles and responsibilities.

100% agree. I’d add we are underestimating our contributions in making the code agents do the right thing as well.

100% agree. I’ve seen it with my own sessions with code agents. You gain speed in the beginning but lose all context on the implementation which forces you to use agents more. It’s easy to see the immediate speed boost, it’s much harder to

I disagree. Agents can only write as fast as we can QA/code review. If there is swe displacement it’ll be small. All these companies firing because of AI are using it as an excuse

I mean that’s sort of where I think this all will land. Use something like happy cli to connect to CC in a workspace directory where it can generate scripts, markdown files, and systemd unit files. I don’t see why you’d need more than that.

Openclaw the actual tool will be gone in 6 months, but the idea will continue to be iterated on. It does make a lot of sense to remotely control an ai assistant that is connected to your calendar, contacts, email, whatever. Having said that

I use it pretty extensively. The reason why it's a tool is because it cannot work without an SWE running it. You have to prompt it and re-prompt it. We are doing a lot of the heavy lifting with code agents that people hyping it are
