how to be good at your job

- realize this one thing is actually made up of two separate things
- realize instead of solving the direct problem you can solve a broader problem
- instead of implementing thing, implement other thing that makes it easier to implement thing

[Will McGugan @willmcgugan]

My concern for the AI era, or at least this phase of it, is that a generation is being taught that "close enough" is just fine.

Take @AnthropicAI for example. Text wrapping in Claude Code has been broken for weeks. Superfluous spaces appear on the left edge. One engineer to another: you know its an out by one error.

I refused to believe that nobody has noticed this. The shtick they are selling is that AI can fix this kind of thing. Either they tried to prompt a fix, and Claude ain't good enough to fix an out-by-one error. Or they haven't attempted it because it is "close enough".

It can't be the case that AI is only good enough if we lower our standards. It can't.

I'm well aware I have both feet firmly planted in my "grumpy old man" phase of life...

First, the cloud gave us abstractions that made it easier to forget failure. Infrastructure became someone else's problem, and many systems were designed around happy paths with reliability added later ... managed services remain up ...

Now, it is an AI speed-at-all-costs culture that is forcing us to ship code that just works 80% of the time, because it is okay if things fail 20% of the time, but we need to ship faster.

Software was supposed to be predictable. Somewhere along the way, we started treating reliability as a tradeoff, and it is now becoming the norm. I do hope we come back to building software that people can depend on and something we are proud of.

The 10x engineer was always mythical.

The 100x engineer — one senior + the agents they direct — is real. I watched it work this year.

Same pattern runs through every role. Which half of your job is translation, and which half is judgement?

Sunday afternoon + Codex = an absurd amount of progress

For a small team like @zarityhealth that’s building custom tools from the scratch, @claudeai @antigravity @cursor_ai @stitchbygoogle..have levelled the field.Our weakness became our strength.

Deleted 2 saas tools in the past 2 months. Excited for what we can own end to end next.

@DexxterUtd you started with the agenda already

Pathetic service by @nobrokercom @NoBrokerCare packers and movers. Its been more than 2 weeks since they have picked my bike for transport but there is no status update. The customer care abruptly cuts my call everytime I try to get update. Urge everyone to never use it.

@Warrior292_0 are you up?

The hiring process is ultra-competitive.

But you’ve incorrectly been told that the only way to stand out is by having fancy degrees and credentials.

An extremely sad news for me, a friend of friend i've know for long, stays and studies in a colg in jabalpur, her entire family is infected by covid and she lost her father a few days ago. He was the sole bread earner of the family which was financially not stable earlier also.

If you cannot laugh at how inexperienced, naive, or basic your thinking was a year ago, you're not pushing yourself to learn new things fast enough.
