Proud of being one of the non-assholey senior devs in IT. It's not impossible guys. #WiTBragDay

What i’ve been saying. But the issue is - the small set of high quality code may also disappear…

[tobi lutke @tobi]

A huge amount of the Anti-AI code sentiment massively overestimates the quality of human code outside of a very small set of open source and high quality company codebases. Human Slop is everywhere and can trivially be improved on by any opus level model.

[Karthik Hariharan @hkarthik]

Right now, engineers need real time, immediate feedback if the AI slop factor is going too high, or they're not holding themselves accountable for going down an LLM-driven path that created a mess.

Senior engineers and tech leads are bearing the brunt of this burden right now. Many are not used to giving a lot of hard, tough feedback and have historically leaned on their managers to do it by relaying info upwards on occasion.

That's just way too slow right now. The junior engineer who let Claude rip and made a mess needs to know about it right now, and in the most direct way possible. They will thank you later.

girlfriend overheard me and started yelling at me asking me “who the fuck is kimmy” “why the fuck are you talking about chinese models”

AutoMapper changing its licensing is a godsend. It’s so easy now to shut down the introduction of AutoMapper by simply saying “we can’t use it because of licensing”. More .NET frameworks need to change to a paid license please ❤️

"In the meantime, it is on every team to look for ways to convert their domain knowledge to infra so that Claude can write code better, so that code review catches issues automatically, and so the next person working on your codebase can contribute more easily."

[Seth Raphael @magicseth]

A junior dev asked the staff engineer: "How do I know if the AI's code is correct?"
The staff engineer replied: "How do you know if yours is?"
The junior dev was enlightened. Prod went down.

Something about people posting their original thoughts experiences and words screams guts and that is finally back on my X feed. You don’t get this experience on frikkin Instagram…

[Meenakshi Kumar @togglebrain]

It does. Feels like 2014 again and such a relief!

[Alek Asaduryan @Ldnbox]

X today feels like Twitter.

Please handover all the algos to the women in tech already

We live in the era of the great humbling, where skills you spent years learning can be outperformed by a single prompt.

You may not be as important as you thought you were.

Now go build your self-worth around something technology can’t easily commoditize.

[Jessie Frazelle @jessfraz]

can't tell you the amount of times I've wanted to join a company just to fix a bug and then quit

[Russell Simmons @UncleRUSH]

Only do shit you believe in.

[I Am Devloper @iamdevloper]

Question is:

Are you still reading the code?

[Matt Carey @mattzcarey]

look out for your folks

Better tools didn't improve Copilot code review. Rewriting their instructions did. 🧵
