    I am mostly worried about the current AI use in management. I’ve met a few with ”AI hubris” making poor managerial decisions that stem from their poor usage of ChatGPT (not underst…

    Some people that are immune to listen to people with more experience will continue to be ”junior” forever. They may eventually not have the title junior, but they really are.

    There are fundamental differences. Many people expect a positive gradient of quality from AI overhaul of projects. For translating back and forth, it is obvious from the outset tha…

    My tip is: don’t use SDK:s for agents. Use a while loop and craft your own JSON, handle context size and handle faults yourself. You will in practice need this level of control if …

    Does this matter much? Git is a ”distributed source control system”. Are you using git in the wrong way? :)

    Reminds me of C#.. IDisposible and IAsyncDisposible in C# helps a lot to write good mechanisms for things that should actually be abstracted in a nice way (such as locks handling, …

    I tried: -red and: red-red-red But it did not work and did not get any response. Maybe I am stupid but should this not work?

    What is the difference between them? Both seems like quite trivial implementations?

    Good investigation! Software developers nowadays barely know about transactions, and definitely not about different transaction models (in my experience). I have even encountered "…

    The big threat of LLM:s is not the diminishing skills of established skilled developers, but rather the skill set building of junior developers.

    try catch - where you catch the right types of errors at the right level is hard to beat. However, many make the mistake to handle any errors at the wrong level. This leads to real…

    How to apply these rules on junior co-workers (who think they know what is best from reading a hyped blog post)?

    Yes. It shines with real problems.

    I have seen tons of ”abstractions” in recently created code bases from ”senior developers” which in actual fact is only titanic-grade mess of complicated ”indirection”. Many people…

    BTW, I am currently working in an enterprise with a small team mixed with experienced developers (heros - but still always learning because of new complexities) and new developers …

    Using these technologies or frameworks may just as well indicate that they are not agile. Nowadays much more common that the wrong technologies are used in the wrong places.

    The document vibe to me is like it is written by some junior engineers who have just read a blog post about the Netflix stack and think they know it all now.

    First parts of the document are pure BS focusing on hype technologies rather than “Agile”. I mean, questions about ”Kubernetes or Docker Swarm?” etc. The last section with flow cha…
