In my session at @RenderATL I'll explain why proper architecture and code quality are more important than ever in the age of AI. And I'll provide actionable guidelines on how to achieve it. Join me there!

[OpenAI Developers @OpenAIDevs]

Build a plugin once and use it across compatible agent clients.

Introducing Agent Plugins, an open standard developed with @awsdevelopers, @cursor_ai, @github, @code, and @vercel that packages Agent Skills and supports MCP server configurations in a shared format.

@kentcdodds Dealing with what? What was your problem before?

In any event, my preference is for AI to generate code that matches my style. Using rules I generally achieve this.

[Uncle Bob Martin @unclebobmartin]

When using agents, ensure that everything that can be deterministic, is done with a deterministic tool. Don't try to get the poor agents to follow a deterministic process.

[Dan Shappir @DanShappir]

@unclebobmartin Just make it and then just maintain it - I think the cost structure is still problematic for that.

@DorShinar AI או הגיל?

@ItamarGronich It's not a perfect analogy, but IMO it's not bad. Why do you disagree?

[Dan Shappir @DanShappir]

Exactly!!!

[Kent C. Dodds 🐨 @kentcdodds]

If you're struggling with the idea of not reviewing every line of code and feeling like you can still deliver a good product, talk to an engineering manager that used to be an individual contributor. They've already been through what you're experiencing.

@code_barbarian This is actually the Brooklyn side, under the bridge.

@RyanCarniato I think we're at a point in time where most aren't thinking about innovation in software at all, unless it has to do with "AI".

@TheOmniLiberal FWIW our moral standing regarding the murder of babies is a relatively modern phenomenon. "Post birth abortion" was a common practice in many societies, if often done by passive means. For example https://t.co/p4z0m7zDu2
