This feels like a good place for tighter integration between editors and agents. The editor could notify the agent of user authored changes.

What’s interesting is that it maps well to how my brain actually works. My chain of thought is very non-linear. Maybe even a little chaotic, going off on tangents before returning …

I’ve started learning into the various AI-isms in my prompts. Most recently, em dashes to chain related information in a single sentence. “Something something main point — but also…

I had a similar situation where someone had their email client configured with my address in the reply-to header. We shared a first initial, last name, and isp… also happened to be…

The insurance requirement isn’t uncommon where I am (California). Though I would avoid whatever plan they are pushing. I got mine through my existing insurance provider and it work…

Same here. Little side projects and convenience tooling for $day_job that otherwise wouldn’t have gotten built for lack of time. Doesn’t need to be perfect, beautiful code for an a…

Perhaps solution was the wrong word for me to use here. It was intended to encompass the implementation details (abstractions, architecture, observability, etc)… All the decisions …

Responding to my own comment to add that I think this moment favors the curious and passionate. None of what I wrote above is a complaint. I’m having more fun now than I have in a …

My personal experience: writing code has always been the easy part. AI does most of that now. Understanding the problem and the existing system well enough to design the right solu…

Overnight oats have been my go to lunch and pre workout meal for a couple years now. 75g 0% Greek Yogurt, 75g Almond Milk, 10g Maple Syrup, 8g ISOpure unflavored protein powder, 8g…

One specific example that comes to mind is developer tooling in the form of bash scripts. Sure, I can write it myself, but I do this so infrequently that there is a cost for the co…

I’m still a couple decades off from “senior”, but I have already reached a point where most day to day driving feels like a chore. If/When Waymo finally arrives in my smallish Bay …

re: your last bullet. This has been very effective in my experience. “See class foo for example implementation “

I should clarify. I do very little greenfield development, even outside of work. So my understanding of vibe coding being good for this use case is largely rooted in the relayed ex…

Multiline autocomplete is still the biggest productivity boost for me. This works well in a familiar codebase with reasonably consistent patterns. After that it’s the “ask” capabil…

This has been saving me a lot of time as well in a decade old code base. I can paste a stack trace and provide additional relevant context, then ask the LLM to do a first pass debu…

> free heat that we couldn’t control I understand the appeal of free. It’s the idea of someone else controlling it that gives me anxiety.

The multi-line autocomplete feels like the right middle ground (for me) when working in an existing code base with well established patterns. Adding new functionality is mostly a m…

Same here. My interest in the Sci-Fi genre started with an HN comment recommending Blindsight, by Peter Watts. Several comments and sci-fi series later, and I’m currently reading a…

That little grill got me through many years of apartment living where I couldn’t have a propane grill.

This is basically where I’m at. It’s mostly become a utility.

There was (mockingbird?) near my home in the 90s who did a solid imitation of the multi- tone aftermarket car alarm that was common around that time. I recall being annoyed by it a…

My wife’s 2015 Honda has a similar setup for the climate controls. One morning the windshield fogged up after a few minutes of driving when the cabin was warming up on a cold day. …
