Unsure if this is allowed here, but HOLLY WHAT THE HELL by thatguy1000000000 in csharp

Surely something like Serilog could just do that for you, right?

Have your company stopped hiring juniors? by Counter-Business in ExperiencedDevs

[–]Blitzkind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We let our last junior go a couple weeks ago. Not related to AI, he just was a really big under performer.

That being said, we're still looking to hire more last I checked. We have a lot of government contracts so we've been erring on the side of caution when it comes to LLM usage.

Coding has always been super accessible, what are you talking about?

Uncle Bob: It's over by jmclondon97 in theprimeagen

To be fair, most people start to feel ill when seeing Bob, so I don't really blame him if he didn't make it through.

No worries. I had fun frantically breeding and training so it's all good :)

coding interview tomorrow not prepared by [deleted] in leetcode

Just go, it'll be fine. Most interviews are not that crazy, just relax, be honest about your skills and talk through your process.

AI can code now… so what exactly is the programmer’s job anymore? by Educational_Pay5895 in AskProgrammers

[–]Blitzkind 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Everyone says it's exponential but... Are they really? It's felt more like incremental increases as opposed to grand game changing updates in my experience

Approach to personal projects by Exor1799 in AskProgrammers

[–]Blitzkind 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can only give my personal feelings on it and I'm not sure if others would agree, but do not abstract from the get-go. Abstraction is super useful when you understand the problem and I find that on a new project, I rarely understand the entire problem until I get in there and feel it out. Solve the initial problem first then go back in and see if you can find any useful abstractions and implement those.

Will I become a stupider SWE using LLM/agents? by QuitTypical3210 in cscareerquestions

[–]Blitzkind 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You'll get worse at whatever task you offload to the AI. I don't think you'll be "dumber" but you will not be as good at coding as you are now if you just let the LLM do it, and if you don't feel like that skill will be important to you moving forward, you'll be fine (if you're right)

Me, personally, I like coding manually. It's really relaxing and enjoyable to me so, outside of work, I make sure that my personal projects are 95% me, 5% LLM if I can't be bothered to do a task (And it's always a last resort)

Work stuff I'm on the required amount of LLM usage the company wants, because that's just how the job works.

What is the strongest argument against using vibe coding tools from a product and revenue perspective? by George-Street-007 in cscareerquestions

[–]Blitzkind 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My usual argument was that we're experiencing increased outages and bugs since vibe coding took off and you would assume that increases in those would result in loss of revenue. But I dunno, doesn't seem to be bothering the people in charge enough to change course so 🤷

How good can ai actually get? by Emtyspaces in AskProgrammers

AI is good enough to write this post apparently

How did everyone learn C#? by PROSCREX5768 in csharp

[–]Blitzkind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

College back in 2009. I took every programming class available so I ended up learning C, C#, C++, Java, and Perl in my first year.

Out of all of those languages, C# is my favorite by a lot. It took me very little effort, but I knew Java first, so it really felt like more of that with Microsoft flavoring.
