Until now code was something costly to make and could only be created by our monkey brains. But now we have some kind of electronic brains that can also generate code, not at the level of the best hum…

You are right to find that post unproductive, somewhat emotionally exhausting, and generally impolite. And I have a similar opinion of comments like yours critizing the post from a person that explain…

Lukewarm opinions on the Internet? Where do you think we are...? We only deal in aboslutes here.

One thing I have discovered after using AI chats that include a websearch tool is that I don't want to delve on diferent blogs, Medium posts, Stack overflow threads with passive-aggresive mod com…

Can we use "ensheetification" to describe this phenomeon? (sure I'm not the first to use this word)

My mantra as an engineer is "Devil is in the details". For 2 almost identical problems, having a little diference between them, the solutions can be radically different in complexity, price …

As engineers we have to aspire to be like that old martial arts master that wins the fight with the simplest move. When we are learning difficult techniques we want to show them (who doesn't like…

These Xmas there have been a lot of converted programmers after having some free time and playing with things like Codex, Claude Code, AMP...

The best way to describe AI agents (coding agents here) I heard on some presentation, I think it was from Andrej Karpathy. It was something like this: "We think we are building Ultron but really …

Where in Europe? Between Spain and Denmark there is a lot of variance in temperature, sun and rain... Talking about the weather "in Europe" is like talking about the shoe size a family of 10…

Mercurial introduced bookmarks,it was something similar to git branches. But it was already too late, GitHub and Linus' weight did the rest.

Maybe this will interest you https://x.com/Hesamation/status/2009707596954186168 …

Motivation is fleeting but routine persists. When there is something that you want to do regularly (exercise, doing the final boring part of some sideproject, cleaning the house...) you remove willpow…

The first one is always free...

Another comment already mentioned that the OP don't understand how to work with errors in Go. As with any language, Go has its own philosophy and you have to first understand why it was created a…

No, vibe coding is about not reading the generated code but you have to check that it works, be it manually or using tests. If you do not, why are you vibe coding? Also there are ways to use a coding …

As an outsider when I read about Rust it seems like it is positioning itself as the language to rewrite things that already work. It's just the simplistic first feeling of a language, in the same…

Sorry, edited for clarity. PS: I learned that acronym less than a year ago, so maybe it is not as used as I thought.

Haven't you really tried an agentic code like Claude Code, Codex, AMP...? For "really try" I mean investing some time with it like 10-20 hours min to see the things they are good with a…

Ah, nothing can beat that old combo of ranting and/or correcting someone on the Internet. As an ESL person one of the first internet-related terms I learned was "flamewar". EDIT: ESL -&…

Lately I'm thinking about which could be the tech stack that enables a project that will keep running for 10-20 years with the least amount of maintenance. Right now it's this: - HTML/C…

It's a little shameful but I still struggle when centering divs on a page. Yes, I know about flexbox for more than a decade but always have to search to remember how it is done. So instead of ref…

It's just a matter of developing some self control. Be conscious about when you really need your phone (using it to pay or as your ticket) vs using is to pass time (doom scrolling X or HN)

You are right, an obsessive personality can obsses over perfecting the wrong solution.

Humans can also generate slop, specially on their blogs.

True for the images, but users not using real names when posting on forums was the usual.

Maybe this will be benefitial to stop the overexposure of some young people on the internet. A bad thing that brings a good result, like the inverse of "the path to hell is paved with good intent…
