I would flip this a little: I worked a lot in consulting with many large companies, none had 100% test coverage, if they had proper testing at all.

But: I don't think there are particular benefits though to typed languages. For instance, I use Go for other reasons, has nothing to do with types or AI (rich standard lib, builds into a single binary, that I can deploy 15-20 seconds with Kamal, speed, etc.). Maybe there is somewhat of a runtime safety that Go actually brings due to its types.

My reasoning is that AI models are becoming so good, that it doesn't matter. They can do Go, JavaScript, Ruby or whatever very reliably today. The dimensions that will matter will be other ones, no users ever cared what language we have on the backend.

Time to market, speed of fixing things, good UX, which includes fast reacting UIs, etc, are the ones users do care about. AI is getting pretty good at these. So differentiating factors will be less and less on the language itself.

@antirez Still quite interesting. This might mean that in 1-2 years we can pretty good LLMs running locally on dev machines.

That would be a nice twist of events for the large labs.

I can anytime ship 50x more code than yesterday. Most of it will be crap.

Counting lines of code as any kind of metric has been a horrible idea for many years, now again presented as something amazing.

[Anthropic @AnthropicAI]

Today, Anthropic engineers on average ship 8x as much code per quarter as they did compared to 2021-2025.

Alibaba Group has released Open Code Review, an AI-powered code review CLI tool, as an open-source project.

@iamdothash @balazsorban44 You say that only because I made sure it wasn’t all visible on the picture 😂

[Eduárd Moldován @edimoldovan]

@iamdothash @balazsorban44 Somewhat similar here, with the difference that I can’t use the 65% keyboards,

@foundmyfitness What were the amount that produced these effects?

[Eduárd Moldován @edimoldovan]

The chances of a deer taking you out at a crosswalk are slim. But never zero.

@DrTamasSulyok It is time for you to get the point. We the Hungarian voters are no longer with you. Not that we ever were.

[Eduárd Moldován @edimoldovan]

@eastdakota Not to mention that the shades of grey scream Scandinavian colours. Lots of those around here.

@Hetzner_Online Which GPU is that?

[Eduárd Moldován @edimoldovan]

@HungaryToday I never watched live parliamentary sessions, I watch these, or listen to be exact. I really hope he doesn't change style, this is really fun.

[Eduárd Moldován @edimoldovan]

@zeldman That is something. I am not sure I can imagine how that happened, that is an extreme amount of tokens.

I did similar things, couple times, I managed to burn 250 million tokens on Deepseek on one night. But that was basically peanuts.

[Eduárd Moldován @edimoldovan]

@juliknl @psd_coder They almost never do.

[Eduárd Moldován @edimoldovan]

You are absolutely clueless. His behavior was never impeccable, he never did any of the things his institution was expected to do, not once. His own former staff says he is entirely clueless and has no understanding of what his institution is expected to do in the Hungarian political environment.

[Eduárd Moldován @edimoldovan]

@DrTamasSulyok It is quite interesting that you worry about the constitution only when your role in jeopardy.

You had no problem with it so far.

So maybe time to go worry about it somewhere else. We Hungarians never wanted you there.

[Eduárd Moldován @edimoldovan]

Also true for more granular levels: design systems, or their components, software libraries, etc. Putting creative work into something is loosing value, it may seem.

But that is not true.

We, the expert dinosaurs, are becoming more rare, our knowledge is expanding rapidly due to AI, hence we become more valuable.

[Darius Dan @dariusdan]

When a designer copies another designer, they get executed in public.

When AI copies an entire product and goes live, everyone applauds.

[Eduárd Moldován @edimoldovan]

@dariusdan Will you be sharing the list with the world when it's done?

[Eduárd Moldován @edimoldovan]

@naval I think there always have been 10x (software) engineers. The ones that have been around for long enough to have a powerful pattern recognition for not to do and for what to do, spearing significant amounts of times like this. I think are getting to 100x now.
