@unclebobmartin @karrisaarinen Exactly. We are trying to harness raw intelligence into a deterministic form factor, it is going to take some time and effort.

@davidfowl We are transitioning from a classical Agile/scrum process to an AI-DLC process. Event though the team makeup is changing, and terminology is changing, it still requires engineering discipline. This not merely vibe coding, but Agentic Engineering.

That is interesting. I wonder that too. I use AI to get significant productivity boosts (email, coding, documents, presentations etc.). But I also have used spell checkers, linters, resharper etc. in the past without a second thought. The nuance between valuable, intentional content and AI slop is subtle. I think the key thing, when it comes to writing (emails, documents, etc.) is that you have read and reviewed the generated content, and have an understanding. I think it is different with code, because the end result is not code, it is behavior. The designer/builder must absolutely review every feature and capability, but does not need to understand every jot and tiddle of the code.

@burkeholland Great to hear! I am still using GPT-5.4, mainly because I am prepping myself for the June 1st pricing changes. We've got 8 days of amazing value left with GitHub Copilot.

@HeyAbbatt The Dan Akroyd SNL usage is so apropos.

I would argue that "get-command" is clearer than "which", albeit more characters. The example below exemplifies how cryptic it can be to do basic things with Bash. whereas pwsh is much clearer: "Import the CSV, sort it by Amount, select only the first 5 and only show the Name and Amount fields
