Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.

@dillon_mulroy @rawkode @remarkabler9 I’ve been very adamant that we all still have jobs because we’re valuable in the SDLC loop somewhere. If we aren’t reading and understanding the code/system, what are we getting paid for? Eventually we won’t have to read code, but even then someone needs to understand the systems

@Speed_RL How long have you been playing for? That’s insane

[Andrew Mellen @Andrew_Mellen]

@thdxr @opencode Sick, thanks!

[Andrew Mellen @Andrew_Mellen]

@OttButcher I hope you enjoyed watching, we had a blast playing!

@_brycebailey I hope you enjoyed! We had a blast playing!

@thdxr @charlieholtz With other tools I generally have a xyz.local config to let me set up my machine specific stuff that I don’t want committed to the repo/all machines

[Andrew Mellen @Andrew_Mellen]

@thdxr @charlieholtz Not to make it more complicated, but it’d be awesome to have a way in the config to essentially “source” from a file as well. I save my config in a dot files repo but there are some things I want to be different between my personal setup and work machines like plugins. (1/2)

@thdxr I’m down for some chaos

[Andrew Mellen @Andrew_Mellen]

@TheNateDog_ @DukeChutney It should be, based on the patch notes you should be able to run something to connect to the websocket and listen to events of the game state

[Andrew Mellen @Andrew_Mellen]

@RocketLeague @iDazerin The StatsAPI is huge! It should be possible to set up an application to continue pushing games to Ballchasing using that which is awesome

[Andrew Mellen @Andrew_Mellen]

@thdxr And I think the “instinct” aspect of judging quality of code is something that is almost impossible to automate. It becomes a value proposition if you’d rather your SEs review a ton of PRs from untrained eyes, or just be accelerated on their own to do the work…

[Andrew Mellen @Andrew_Mellen]

@thdxr Agents also still aren’t good enough to handle system design or large architectural refactors in my experience, and sometimes functionality changes require that. I think the most valuable skill a software engineer has now is the barometer to tell good quality from bad (continued)

@thdxr Any news on more OC black rollout? I’m still on the waitlist for the $20 tier

[Andrew Mellen @Andrew_Mellen]

@mitchellh At a high level it’s basically “does this person understand the problem at hand well enough to be able to write a description with enough context for an agent to solve the problem”. Which feels like a really quick way to determine a person’s understanding of the problem space

[Andrew Mellen @Andrew_Mellen]

@thdxr Is there a goal to have lower priced subscriptions with tighter rate limits eventually? Akin to the Claude pro tier

[Andrew Mellen @Andrew_Mellen]

@spectre0799 This is your magnum opus

[Andrew Mellen @Andrew_Mellen]

@mertzyabi I started learning with an app called Language Transfer, it’s totally free. It’s like 10ish minute audio episodes, but I really like the approach the guy takes to teaching language. I’d recommend checking it out if you’re looking for something different to try
