You’re a waste of time.

You don’t? You have a responsibility to understand it. If you don’t. You rewrite it until you do.

No it doesn’t. You can’t even read a file without Java.

I love Kotlin and prefer to write it over Java nowadays but Kotlin has the same tristate nullability. It has nullable, non-nullable, and platform types when interacting with types from JS or Java.

There’s still inherent value in people that can write code better and make architecture better than LLMs; even if you can’t.

It’s very Asimov-esque. The Spacers who adopted robots for everything eventually stopped interacting with each other except over video calls.

Just wait until someone relies on that bug too.

Stealing is immoral. Sad what this forum has become.

Sad little ai driver.

Jokes on you. No one is reading anything anymore.

I might put more value in a scientific study than your experience personally.

A different shell??? Nushell, fish, powershell, etc.

Or just stop using bash. It’s a terrible language to write and has tons of footguns.

Shouldn’t that be caught at review time? Or by the sad little ai driver that submits the pr? ;)

It’s nice to see some sanity in an insane world.

Of course. LLMs only produce the average. Most of the time if you think you need to mock you should probably just do the real thing. It’s mostly an antipattern.

I seem to be continuing to get paid. What’s your next excuse about why you’re sacrificing quality?

Maybe I’m just better than you? It’s something to consider. Your whole point here is that astra could pump out something faster than you ever could at a quality level _you_ think is good. It might be worth some reflection that _your quality level_ is not _my quality level_.

I have no pressure to use this stuff. I’m still getting paid. I’m still shipping higher quality software at the same speed as the rest of my peers. Why should I sacrifice quality for speed?

Ctrl-W will close your window on Windows and end the program if it’s the only window open.

I enjoy programming and producing high quality work. Why would I want to give up the thing I find fun and produce something subpar?

> The code was shit to begin with, because of hundreds of hacks due to underspecified or simply wrong requirements, bad code practices, architecture that couldn't keep up but was never fixed due to stubbornness...

My coworkers have always produced slop, even before LLMs. Unfortunately, as the lead on the project it’s still my responsibility to get that up to a certain quality level or at least make it isolated and malleable enough that it can be changed and we all won’t have a bad time doing it.

I guess what I’m saying is.. I get it. It’s hard to work with other people who are just pushing whatever is given by the LLM. But I still have fun doing it myself.

Too many tests and hallucinates edge cases and “security” flaws.

I’ll be ok, I produce higher quality work than any LLM ever will. And if that time ever comes, which I seriously doubt, it’s not like it’s that hard to prompt.

LLMs will hallucinate edge cases or worry about things that just aren’t possible within context. It results in more tests than are needed. I personally dont think LLMs are any good at all.

I write everything by hand still. I don’t believe speed vs quality trade offs are worth it. Somehow I’m still shipping as fast as my peers. Where LLMs have saved me time is in research and finding the right documentation.

Copyright theft machine does copyright theft. Imagine that.

You’re an absolute loser.

I prefer Maven. It’s simpler or maybe I just know it. But with Kotlin I’ll still choose gradle because that’s the Kotlin ecosystem.

Plenty of reasons. The Java team can’t ship basic language features that will improve the day to day lives of most people.

Maven does not properly do the job for kotlin projects. The Kotlin ecosystem and all of its plugins are very much gradle focused. You have to do bizarre things in maven to get them to behave properly.

Kotlin projects too.
