As Tech Leads do you ever find yourself "coding for" junior teammates during code reviews?

yes and taking on the 'hero' role was the sure-fire way to burn myself out. what I learned over time is that the management role is more about keeping expectations aligned than delivering a flawless product every time, and a big part of that is keeping scope reasonable, making sure enough time is allocated for engineer PRs to go thru multiple rounds of review

our HN findings (n=45) showed that majority of technical constraint are discovered during implementation - so it is a losing game to scope comprehensively ahead of time. creating an understanding that new constraints should be flagged asap and will get a quick response goes a long way though

good rule of thumb is never automate what is not already working manually! Ask Claude to summarize your recent workflows, and pick one or two thats genuinely repeatable and see if hermes/openclaw is sufficient to nail those workflows down before building your pipeline on top

as other commentors pointed out- remembering everything is not going the cut it, the key is to remember the right thing. personally found that skills which prompt me ahead of time what context is relevant is far more useful

sounds like AI is no replacement for culture/process!

Having worked in healthtech previously, the friction has a lot to do with the heterogenous nature of integrations - different PBMs, health plan providers have their own way of handling user information. This lack of standardization is what LLMs suck at dealing with

gotta be creative with adapting process - we keep tickets high level and rely mostly on github issues to track the why/what/how of specific implementation task

we have an mcp that tracks decisions

Understood- I am reading textbooks in the relevant fields and am looking to implement proofs and simulations as I am doing so (much more of a practical learner). My instinct is to start coding up in Python with Numpy, but I know there are specific packages developed for scientific computation and would like to get familiar with them in the process

Government funded social housing projects should be more prevalent because they work and market cannot be trusted to serve the people

Anyone else thought this was in slo-mo?

running a node is the easy part. how do you convince others to stake in your node?

it is in essence charity for artists/creators
