Why even deploy such systems? I would support less for sure.

There must be some level of acceptable failure.

> However, I've seen multiple times where cops initiate a felony stop At what point do we accept that all systems are flawed? There could be many variables as to why the perp wasn't in the car. Maybe the perp stole the car. May

> Code review should be mandatory and reviewers should ask big PRs to be broken up Always, even before all this madness. It sounds more like a function of these teams CR process rather than agents writing the code. Sometimes super large

I'm curious what you've used it for? I was firmly in your camp until about a month ago when i used codex to dust off an old side project. I hadn't touched the project in six months. This was literally my first prompt: "E

I'd argue you still have to stay engaged, if not more-so. Its a different type of engagement. Look at you: You're the CTO now.

I still write code but do not push everything off to the agent. Try my best to write small tasks. ~20% of the time I have to get in there. If someone says they're absolutely not writing a line of code they must have amazing guardrails.

> This is such a strange take. Your words remind me of past crypto hype cycles, where people pushed web3.0 and NFT FOMO hysteria. Thats a little harsh. I think most everyone would agree we're in a transformative time for engineering

Recent developments offer us evidence but did you really think this wouldn't be the case?

Feel similarly. And to be honest, even when I do select decline all, I have little confidence that the function does what it says it does.

Agreed the official responses to almost everything - killings, terrible policy, various files - has been horrible. That is the result of having an uncouth person as president.

When has this "regime" destroyed any company, city, or any of our friends? I feel this whole conversation is emotionally charged and its clouding reality. People are protesting. Media is not controlled by the government. Our court

Dictatorship. Control over media. No regard for human life.

Yes I understand. And given the heaviness of the situation I could have chosen a better way to phrase that I completely disagree with it being evidence that we're on the road to fascism.

How long can we push this narrative? It was a terrible situation and I can't imagine the minutes of complete fear she must have felt. I pray for her family. But to then draw a conclusion to say this is evidence that we are in some sort

To counter point, do you think AI companies located on our adversaries turf will take the same stand? I agree its nightmarish to think of AI surveillance. But why is that being lumped in with weaponry? I see these as two separate issues.

Isn't this our governments classic negotiation strategy? Go to the extreme, and meet somewhere well on their side of the middle.

> On their own initiative workers did more because AI made “doing more” feel possible, accessible, and in many cases intrinsically rewarding. Love this quote. For me, barely a few weeks in, I feel exactly this. To clarify - I feel this o

I agree with what you're saying and I didn't mean to insinuate I believe that we should ship just for the sake of shipping. I don't. But thats not the reality I've participated in. I think about story points a lot. Whats

You're spot on. And maybe I've only ever worked in terrible eng environments which is an interesting thought for me. I'll have to reflect on this. Sounds like you've had the opposite experience?

by xXSLAYERXx 8mo ago
Do you have a different take on winning then me? In engineering the only teams that win are the teams that ship code. Dealing with coaching, ownership, feelings, politics, etc, should all arrive at the same outcome: ship code.

I used to be so deeply annoyed with leadership decisions as an IC. When I got into management my attitude completely shifted. Leadership only cares about shipping code. Thinking they care about anything else and you're fooling yourself

> My guess is that the drive is toward power Not really for me. Programming is an effort type job. The more effort you put in the more you get out. True in other professions sure but multiplied with dev work. When became a dad everything

It was the easiest place to host my Rails apps back in the day.

Of course. What I meant was I'm calling Supabase directly from the client instead of handing off the request to for example Node / Express and having that manage the req / res.

When I first started at Big Saas Co i was 42 and most of engineering ICs were late 20s early 30s. The founder, who was at least 65, came over to me and asked how old I was. When I replied 42 he muttered "you're too old" and w

I've been using codex for one week and I have been the most productive I have ever been. Small prs, tight rules, I get almost exactly what I want. Things tend to go sideways when scope creeps into my request. But I just close the PR in

Imagine how specific you'd have to be to ensure you got the actual items on your list?

by xXSLAYERXx 8mo ago
That makes sense and appreciate the response. Definitely a topic I need to invest more time with if that is the case.

Just started vibing and have integrated codex into my side project which uses Supabase. I turned off RLS so that could iterate quickly and not have to mess with security policies. Fully understand that this isn't production grade and h
