@BlakeWhittle7 @PeterRandewijk @RevivedThoughts Depends. Did you have a sauna?

[Jeremy Howard @jeremyphoward]

This is misleading.

This policy redefines the term "interactive" to mean "using an Anthropic front-end".

If you use `claude -p` or Agent SDK to do something interactively, it now uses credits, not your subscription limits. So the "interactive use" heading saying "unchanged" subscriptions is not accurate.

Asked Claude to look into fixing a Riverpod issue.

It just told me to get @remi_rousselet to fix it 😂

Unpopular Opinion: We aren't building the future 10x faster with AI. We are just generating legacy code 10x faster.

Everyone is currently bragging about developer velocity. "I built this entire backend in a weekend!" "AI wrote 80% of my codebase!"

But here is the reality check we are ignoring: Code is a liability, not an asset.

If an AI tool spits out 1,000 lines of functional boilerplate in five seconds, that is still 1,000 lines that a human being has to read, review, secure, and maintain when the dependencies inevitably break next year.

We are treating code generation like a pure productivity win, but we are optimizing for the wrong metric. The bottleneck in software engineering was never how fast we could type. The bottleneck has always been comprehension, architecture, and maintenance.

If we don't shift our focus from "generation speed" to "architectural sanity," the tech debt of the next five years is going to be an absolute, unmaintainable nightmare.

@imadetheseworks THE FLUTTER POLICE HAVE BEEN ALERTED

[Tom Gilder @tomgilder]

@precious_tagy Flutter out-of-the-box is 90% capable of making a good desktop app, but the missing 10% is pretty painful

[Tom Gilder @tomgilder]

I find staring at AI coding agents weirdly compulsive. Is it just me?

Feels a bit like doomscrolling. Doomcoding?

I could be getting on with something else, but instead I’m just watching Claude read files.

Flutter's new guidelines on AI-generated code

"Unmodified AI output generally does not meet [the Flutter project’s] standards."

I don't think reviewers have been having fun...

More fun with Claude + Flutter widget preview

[Tom Gilder @tomgilder]

Gave Claude the ability to preview my Flutter widgets. Fun.

@headinthebox There's been a bug open for 6 months for this, I would love to know how it's still a thing: https://t.co/fGur85GJdh

@luke_pighetti Asked my partner which model we were cooking curry with the other day. The future is weird.
