Excited about the web & sufficient abstraction

[Kyle Kashuba @kashubak]

@lovelacecoding Looking to replace mixed usage of yarn/npm with pnpm across a handful of repos.

[Yash @YashHustle_22]

If AI writes the code, what should developers master?

- Architecture
- Problem solving
- Code review
- Product thinking

[Kyle Kashuba @kashubak]

@YashHustle_22 Architecture + product thinking.

Use the right tools to build the right things and the rest fall into place. Investments into code itself are diminishing more and more.

[Kyle Kashuba @kashubak]

@igama GitLab needs more love. But it also needs to be more friendly towards hobbyists.

[Kyle Kashuba @kashubak]

@joshmanders I tend to hand-code the end goal, and let the agents figure out how to get there.

[Kyle Kashuba @kashubak]

might start posting rage bait just to engage with the dev community. That’s all people seem to do anyway

[Kyle Kashuba @kashubak]

@mattshumer_ @meltingdiodes Do you have evidence for this? MCPs don’t just exist for context’s sake, it lets the agent do more things it couldn’t before. If I shouldn’t use MCPs for a given model then I just won’t use that model.

life after you stop reviewing your coworker's slop PRs and just merge that shit

[Kyle Kashuba @kashubak]

@mehulmpt Ha, I literally made 5 different PRs today moving off of npm/yarn onto pnpm for this exact reason

[Kyle Kashuba @kashubak]

@zebassembly Might as well just have a CI.js file, and add `node ci.js` in my yaml.

[Kyle Kashuba @kashubak]

@artman This is rage bait. People don’t care about being performant/memory efficient, otherwise JS wouldn’t be one of the most popular languages. Debugging and iterating on binary directly is a waste of time and tokens.

[Kyle Kashuba @kashubak]

I wish building customer account UI extensions was better. Right now it feels like 2015: save, wait 10s, reload the page.

[Kyle Kashuba @kashubak]

@yetone All I see is less space for things that matter and more distractions. The reason I use a TUI is because it's deliberately simple, and I can predict how to use any of them.

[Kyle Kashuba @kashubak]

My dream web framework is RPC first, no `FormData`, and I never have to type `use`. Does this exist, or am I stuck using React forever?

[Matt Pocock @mattpocockuk]

Fuck I just told my agent it was absolutely right

[Kyle Kashuba @kashubak]

@ryanflorence Throw a prompt at two agents, one uses React + React Router, the other uses Remix. What are you trying to convince people? Focus on that.

[Kyle Kashuba @kashubak]

@ryanflorence Awesome! I’m excited to play with new Remix 😄 Is there a roadmap to when you’ll unleash it to the public?

[Dylan Pierce @ctrlaltdylan]

Big thanks to Kyle at @helium_dev for the contributions!

[Kyle Kashuba @kashubak]

We put lots of love into this app :) So excited for the future.

[Michael Hall @kmichaelhall]

An exciting milestone to end 2025...
