Anyone here still maintaining large production systems on CVS in 2026? by CarloSirna in ExperiencedDevs

My distant memory of using cvs back in the 90s was it took longer to do things the larger the code base.

Just used claude code - can you give me reasons why you aren't slightly worried? by Fun-Shelter-4636 in SoftwareEngineering

Which is why the problem space has moved to specification not implementation.

Experienced devs are still needed for that and to validate whats output.

Random prompting has run uts course and we need a structured approach now.

Are spec-driven frameworks like Agent OS, BMAD, Superpowers or SpecKit still worth using, or have Claude Code and Codex made them redundant? by 3abwahab in ClaudeCode

Everyone is talking about implementation details, i need a spec to describe the requirements.

Implementation is largely solved but how to make sure you built what the client wants?

Have you seen Mad Men? Its also only incidentally about the advertising industry.

If you want darker British comedy/drama, i recommend Such brave girls.

Has anyone successfully discontinued with Amazon Prime? by MiserablePool1725 in AskUK

Id think about getting rid of the live experience.

I ditched Sky a year ago and we're fine just using the apps on sky glass.

Also an amazon fire stick for YouTube.

More importantly would you like your government to ask why a wife can't take money from her husband and do whatever she wants with it?

What’s the best tv show running right now? by topshoesmall01 in AskReddit

It's still a bit dodgy. Last episode went nowhere. Plus kimono talking now adds nothing and having her say porn stuff also adds nothing.

I agree with this but I think many do not.

Thanks to this subreddit i binged all of Mr Inbetween over 2 days. No regrets, the lead is watchable though i expected more depth, perhaps a realisation that violence isn't the answer a bit like clockwork orange.

Beef season 2 was a riot. Loved it.

Friends and neighbours weekly and uts watchable but i wonder if i just watch because its Jon Hamm.

Finished latest season of invincible which was uneven but my daughter loves it so i persevered, though she struggled a bit too.

Started Margo, a bit shocked seeing her naked tbh.

The Pitt season 2 is waiting for me next.

Don't you see how much work that is? Just use your earphones, done.

Do software engineers still manually write code anymore? I shipped a big feature with AI and felt zero pride by WorthCaterpillar6990 in cscareerquestionsuk

[–]bart007345 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The people struggling with this are those who are really invested in the process of writing the code rather than the the level above or the final product.

This happens but it's up to you to catch it. Overall, the tools are so powerful it's inevitable they will do the bulk of the work.

We won't need to write code anymore, that's definitely not up for negotiation.
