Maybe at the beginning ... but with time? who knows ... Btw, the end game is probably having ads in the llm context .... or directly in the llm training set.

I have running subscriptions with both claude and codex. They are good but, at least for me, don't fully replace the coding part. Plus I tend to lose focus because of basically random response time.

Actually currently I'm using augment, it's good, but still subpar when compared to old supervmaven or cursor. One thing that I'm really missing is the automatic cursor move.

I think they are completely screwing up the AI integration. After years of JetBrains PyCharm pro I'm seriously considering switch to cursor. Before supermaven being acquired, pycharm+supermaven was feeling like having superpowers ...

You can still outsource up to VM level and handle everything else on you own. Obviously it depends on the operational overhead of specific technology.

It's tricky, but one can assume that code written once and not touched in a while is good code (didn't cause any issues, performance is good enough, ecc). I guess you can already derive this value if you sum the total line changed

In the engineering team velocity section, the most important metric is missing: change rate of new code or how many times it is change before being fully consolidated.

AI doesn't overcome the limits of the one who is giving the input, like in pre-ai era SW, if the input sucks the output sucks. What changed is the speed: AI and vibe coding just gave a turboboost to all you described. The amount of cod

It's not just about "building" ... who is going to maintain all this new sub-par code pushed to production every day? Who is going to patch all bugs, edge cases and security vulnerabilities?

In my experience, most of the time estimates are difficult because prerequisites and constraints are not clear or not fully known. But, if you are enough experienced, with some fermi-style math, you will do good enough estimates most of the

And it will be probably the same for nvidia, unless they didn't find another business stream apart from selling "shovels". BTW, stock price is not everything, Cisco survived, grew, and it's the backbone of internet today

Man, the only true part is the async/web socket part (and it's most because of python and not django itself) ... you can do a lot, and by a lot I mean almost 99% of websites/apps out there, with django and it's 2005-era

I went through some interviews where they put microservices in the job description but when asked it turned out to be a kind of monolith for core + a set of other services for other stuff (authentication, logging, analytics).

in my opinion "you need microservices" peaked around 2018-2019 ... does nowadays someone think that, apart from when you reach certain limits and specific contexts, they are a good idea?
