I think we are all vulnerable and need to reassess what it is we bring. Agents merely accelerate and equalize the playing field. And they cost money. We might be a dying breed, but…

LLMs don’t “solve” execution at all. They aid and accelerate it.

You know what lacks focus? This whole article. Oh, and also individual styles of commit messages. You know what’s a waste of everyone’s time when you’re building technology in 2026…

Seems like a bug

That’s a bet and remains to be seen.

Based lol

I feel similarly. There is virtually zero chance I’m going to clone and run someone else’s dotfiles. So the act of sharing them is a generous look into a developer’s toolchain and …

I think this author is so far off the mark that it makes me wonder if they were high when they wrote this

Yeah this whole effort is just more money wasted on security theater and this whole discussion thread is filled with disgruntled tech workers who drive into the city rather than ta…

Which makes sense because they might actually be people who otherwise feel powerless and deserve empathy like anyone else

Surveillance tech is the worst and I hope this fails miserably. There should be an outreach program that goes to the community and works with the people who perform sideshows to ma…

The article and commenter are talking about a single management role, Product. You say “retain managers” — plural. You’re putting words in their mouth. They had something like Extr…

Leetcode? I find it interesting that there’s an assumption that if you exist in this world as a professional software engineer and are successful by all reasonable measures that it…

The tenor of the conversation I imagine since it’s a chatbot

At this point, anybody here likely has had the privilege of being educated to prefer primary sources of information over secondary, tertiary, etc. The indexing feature that search …

It’s been a good run everyone, good luck out there

Good to see QLab. I’m curious why MaxMSP didn’t make it on there. In college we used it for ‘These Shining Lives’ to create a harmonic, barely perceivable drone over the actors voi…

It’s not even just about choices, it’s about consensus and we’ve forgotten how to see a win from a partial loss. We no longer know compromise at a federal level

You’re a natural but don’t forget to slow down, get done with school, find meaning outside of tech, and then change the world. You’re already on your way.

Great job!

Excellent work

Yes? Isn’t that implied by “losing its luster,” considering the publisher and audience of the article? I think it goes on to talk about the relationship to venture capital and loca…

There’s some good points on here that I might share with some tutoring students, esp about greenfield and how that’s really a coveted thing in a social setting of engineers. I do t…

Ah yes, this short, click baiting article highlights the very predictable and widely known side effect of what we all know as the software development cycle.
