Honest take: I work less now with maybe slightly faster results while the output quality is probably about the same. Some bugs sometimes fall through, but when hasn’t that been the…

I feel the 1M context is way too large —- the model gets ”drunk” way before it gets anywhere near 1 million. Imo the 1M context window is a huge downgrade.

I suspect people with opinions like the author’s haven’t been in a project where people use LLMs responsibly. We had a senior dev basically just prompt and push, with very little o…

I still write my cover letters myself. :( Though I do refine them with LLMs, but instruct to retain the tone and the feel of the writing.

I use LLM’s daily and agents occasionally. They are useful, but there is no need to move any goal posts; they easily do shit work still in 2026. All my coworkers use agents extensi…

What I’ve seen also happen is senior devs suddenly starting to put out garbage code and PRs. One senior dev in our project has become a menace and the quality of his work has drama…

Sounds like a junior vibe coder with no understanding of software development trying to boost their CV. Or at least I hope that’s the case.

Those lazy employees need that strict supervision! Maybe these c suites and other employee hating assholes are projecting their own lazyness. Or maybe they think they are so superi…

Since you are only willing to go for 1:1 odds with a 3 year timeframe, I assume you are in agreement that it might happen? Otherwise I’m sure you would give him better odds with a …

Mikko Hyppönen, who holds at least some level of authority on the subject, just recently said in an interview that he believes currently the defenders have the advantage. He claime…

Tesla definitely has suffered a huge blow to it’s reputation (or several of them) which is evident in the EU new car sales. Maybe your take is true if you are non-EU, but it defini…

To be perfectly fair saying ”it’s aware of the best practices, context and internal usage” is very misleading. It’s aware none of those (as it is not ”aware” of anything), and that…

How to reveal your multi-layered ignorance and delusions in a single, short comment. Impressive in a way.

My thoughts exactly reading these comments. Generating scripts is a very good use for LLMs, but I was under the impression that vibe coding generally referred to building whole pro…

Instead of being rude and snarky you could just answer the question. Or just not reply at all. Not everyone has looked into or tried everything.
