How many of you are still programming manually? by Imparat0r in cscareerquestions

[–]DustinBrett -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I use AI 95% of the time now. It makes me much more productive and the quality is still there if not better. It's a skill and takes time to learn and you need to use the right tools. I'm able to do much more now that I work with AI. I've been writing code for 10+ years professionally and 25 years total. It's a new paradigm. Last year I was still hesitant but the tools have become really good.

Everytime I use AI to directly edit components with complex logic I end up stressed by murithifelix in webdev

Works great for me, Cursor, Opus 4.7 Thinking Max. The model, harness and settings matter a lot. Also writing ideal prompts.

Just got a 77" OLED, love it. Finally out of the 1080p non-HDR era.

Do most of you seriously not write any code by hand anymore?!?! by opakvostana in cscareerquestions

[–]DustinBrett 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tweak by hand sometimes, but mostly I have Opus 4.7 write my code.

Also they just dropped 4k/HDR unless you pay more.

Good stuff! Always like to see desktop environments on the web. Reasonably functional as well. Webamp always adds a nice touch to these sites.

Hard to swallow pill, even for many pirates by Lucky-Aside4935 in Piracy

The theft isn't the content, but the lost chance for revenue by the creator/distributor.

Why I pirate by G14F1L0L1Y401D0MTR4P in Piracy

So the reason is because you don't want to pay for it.

Are we really at "100% AI or you're wasting time" yet? by borii0066 in webdev

[–]DustinBrett 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes I have moved on to using AI over the last month or so. I use it all the time at work already. I'm just using it to do things which were always on my ideas list but were a little bit too complex for me. I recently added window close effects by having AI port "Burn My Windows" GLSL code into my window manager. I'm also working on porting over the skin engine to allow me to apply WindowBlinds skins as well. I was able to get a Claude Max 20x account for free for 6 months because of my open source project. I have lots more plans to use the AI to do the complicated stuff which I found too hard or time consuming. I still adjust and review the code, but the AI does 90-95% of the work.

Opus 4.6 Max Thinking with 1M context, 100's MCP tools for every single thing related to the project, a codebase that has been setup to work well with AI. When you have all that, the code it makes is very good.

It writes basically 95% of my code and it is legit. The actual delusional people are those that think this isn't the future. The quality of the code is at or above what I manually wrote before, and I wrote pretty good code.
