watching an LLM debug an issue using cloudwatch is wild. It‘s like hiring tourist to figure out why your CRUD app doesn’t work

DOWNER’S GROVE IS ON 🔝!

I'm an old programmer (by programmer standards). I use agents daily, extensively. Here's a view from the other side of "wooooow look how many lines it wrote!", taken from my work today.

Some thoughts on ownership I shared with the team this morning

[Dillon Mulroy @dillon_mulroy]

imagine if they banned all models and we all went back to writing code by hand and the last 6 months were just a fever dream…imagine

Elon Musk is now a trillionaire.

Almost all of this is the result of 2 things:

-bicarb
-shoe technology

I was recently diagnosed with a rare autoimmune disorder called anti-NMDA receptor encephalitis. It's a "disease of chaos" that completely upturned my life for a couple months.

I wrote a blog about it that goes into more detail and discusses prognosis.

@thorstenball the credits are a beautiful touch and flex

@OffyUnfiltered Eh even if it was who cares

[Andrew Marek @AndrewMarek]

it is interesting that AI haters always equate token usage to product output, when they would never do the same for human engineers. People don’t usually say “wow you spent 20 hours on that problem and only figured out part of the implementation?!” So is it really fair to say “you spent X amount of tokens and what did you make?” I wonder why this is? Maybe that tokens directly equate to $?
