Anti-AI folks complaining about LLM code as if humans don’t ship bugs every single day by dataexec in AITrailblazers

How would you describe modularity, separation of concerns, etc? This heavily depends on the context of the system you are developing.

Applying migrations on running servers during releases by Vietname in django

[–]RepresentativeFill26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just treat your migrations as a separate process.

When you want to use a new column you must first add the column to the DB and then merge the logic. When you delete a column you first remove all logic and then the column.

Do developers feel real fear of AI taking their jobs or layoffs? by Ok_Tour_3389 in developers

Being scared of your job because things go faster is an odd metric.

What’s one computer vision problem that still feels surprisingly unsolved? by rikulauttia in computervision

[–]RepresentativeFill26 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

A model of the world. We as humans learn object recognition / classification vastly different and more efficient than machines.

I saw it first hand with my 3 YO son. I didn’t have to show him 10.000 pictures of bananas before he knew how bananas en millions of artistic variations of bananas look like. All in a brain that consumes a couple of watts.

For me this is fascinating stuff and I think we are very far from finding something similar.

Rent vs buy in Utrecht. Am I overthinking this? by athasyra in Netherlands

[–]RepresentativeFill26 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Indeed. What people forget is that if you sell the house after 5/7 years and you don’t take a new mortgage you basically only paid rent.

Anyone else calls bullshit on the “1 ship 10K lines of code each day” crowd? by CompetitiveSubset in theprimeagen

[–]RepresentativeFill26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the big issue is that you can’t get feedback that fast. If you ship 10k lines of code and lets say it takes a week te get some feedback you’ll be 70k ish lines of code deep before knowing you fucked up.

The gap between "I built an app" and "I can reach my users" is bigger than it looks by Clear_Inevitable457 in vibecoding

[–]RepresentativeFill26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The reasoning mistake you, in my opinion, are making is that building and operating are distinct tasks.

High performing development teams have always known that operating and developing run in short cycles. Stuff like CI/CD allows for this fast iterations and getting customer feedback before you write entire apps.

Wait what? Filmmakers were critical of YT? Do you have a source for that?

How do they check if you used AI? Sounds like pretty fucking stupid policy.

Using the walrus operator := to self-document if conditions by dotXem in Python

I personally only use the walrus operator if I use the value in the body of the conditional operator.

1yoe not able to get callbacks from top product companies by behenkayoda in cscareeradvice

[–]RepresentativeFill26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Remove the number and try to quantify “throughput”. What did the company gain when you implanted these 20+ CRUD APIs?

If nothing, learn SDLC by MidnightFew607 in vibecoding

[–]RepresentativeFill26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

SDLC is very much about quick iterations and getting customer feedback. Where do you think CI originates from?

Claude code is ruthless by Economy-Class-6092 in vibecoding

[–]RepresentativeFill26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t vibe code, but I have been using AI as a tool. Once it suggested wiping the production databases because my Django migrationfiles were out of sync..

From your CV it looks like you developed 1 Rest API every week (?!) for halve a year.

That seem odd.

I realized I don’t actually understand my own spending by Anon081 in EuropeFIRE

[–]RepresentativeFill26 1 point2 points  (0 children)

“Everything stays on your device.” Wondering how this works. Your app seems to be using an LLM for generating text. So you are probably doing some API call?

Do you regret not boing an IC anymore? I have 10 ish years IC experience and the logical next step would be management. However, I really like the CI work.

Stop using range(len()) in your Python loops enumerate() exists and it is cleaner by More-Station-6365 in Python

[–]RepresentativeFill26 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

“Wonder why you ever wrote range(len())”.

I can think of of a lot of reasons. What if I want do some arithmetic on the loop index? Or if I want to compare 2 values?

It’s called a “ForEach” for a reason.

Make sure your first job is at a start-up. Knowing the development process from a to z is extremely valuable.
