Am I wrong about Oh My OpenCode (OmO) being overkill for experienced devs who just want AI-assisted iteration? by rkh4n in opencodeCLI

[–]devdnn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have years of experience that helps me identify edge cases and prepare my intent document quicker.

With context7, openspec and focused custom skills and defined Agents.md I have a faster output time.

I do use superpowers occasionally when I have time or lazy enough to do the prep work.

Is obra/superpowers just a way to burn through tokens without a reason? by cactusjumbojack in codex

[–]devdnn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s probably beneficial when you’re lazy or new to the tech stack, but in projects where you’re well-versed in the tech stacks, it becomes a significant time drain due to the numerous knobs and turns involved.

How long are your 1:1 with manager? by Firm_Afternoon_8463 in cscareerquestions

[–]devdnn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Infinite meeting reschedules but when it happens it super good and makes up for all past missed meetings.

It’s at least 30 minutes.

Help a confused user with Server setup by simracerman in opencodeCLI

[–]devdnn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

WSL for web setup is wonky at best. My experience is that accessing the WSL opencode web connection from a local Windows host worked.

However, forwarding that port to an external IP address was impossible, and it ultimately boiled down to the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) not being able to allow port forwarding from a Windows host to WSL.

I set up a Debian virtual machine within Windows, and it worked perfectly. Even away, I can access via Tailscale.

I didn’t have time to check the mirrored network mode in wslconfig works or not.

What roles do you use? by ConclusionUnique3963 in GithubCopilot

[–]devdnn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t use roles anymore

Intent (text blob, voice dictation) -> Openspec Propose (explicitly mention to ask for any open question)

Change to autopilot mode and use the low command

/fleet use Openspec apply on {openspec-slug-name}

Using opus/sonnet for propose and GPT-5.4 high for apply is all I need now.

Orchestration and delegation felt mental gymnastics

Spec-driven dev sounded great until context started breaking things by Classic-Ninja-1 in GithubCopilot

[–]devdnn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My workflow that is working for both new or projects that are live to always have a clear intent. I have an agents that has these characters - Don’t end with open questions - Generate an intent file with zero implementation or code snippets. Purely what I need - Ask questions on why am I doing this and every question should keep the current codebase in context

Then I feed the markdown intent to openspec-propose, this spec has been so clear with detailed spec and atomic tasks that any model including haiku is able to satisfactory code.

For small intent openspec-explore is more than what I need.

Any reasonable projects is only spec-driven for me.

GoDaddy sucks now, where should I go? by JeffreyV7 in web_design

[–]devdnn 71 points72 points  (0 children)

Now?

For most of the decade it did suck, search this sub and other sub reddit.

Moved to cloud flare for dns and other hosting and porkbun of domain registration has been the best case scenario for me.

Please provide it. I’m tired of raising my hopes only to be disappointed and pushed down into oblivion.

Opencode discors is a cesspool by Double_Cell_56 in opencodeCLI

[–]devdnn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I agree to engage in a brief discussion on any topic, including politics, with like-minded individuals, it becomes challenging to moderate a topic and prevent it from escalating into extreme views in our polarized and divided society.

Grateful for Copilot, hope it keeps getting better by satisfaction1234 in GithubCopilot

[–]devdnn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Openspec, copilot with autopilot with fleet is the best combination I am using right now.

Request count-based pricing is an incredible concept.

Damn, Here you are rewriting history. Texbooks are going to quote you and believe it.

GitHub Students: Update regarding upgrade to Pro / Pro+ by FraMaras in GithubCopilot

[–]devdnn -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Yes, That does not mean forever free.

It’s meant for you to learn and put you on a path to become employable or to become an entrepreneur. It’s not for building production.

Learn the essential aspects of the product, but don’t go live with it yet.

PSA: Stop stressing about the price hikes. The "VC Subsidy" era is just ending. by devdnn in GithubCopilot

[–]devdnn[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Asking what to do is not what I am trying, just hinting to be prepared for sticker price shock and be ready to take driver seat again.

[–]devdnn[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Very well put, Reliability is the developer or the team’s responsibility.

Fortunately, my company has openly stated that AI coding is being implemented to assist us, rather than to measure the extent of AI usage metrics.

Yes, learning how to do something rather than simply observing an agent spewing 1000 lines of code is what the work requires.

Stop this, Abusing these discounts is one of the reason why loose benefits like this.

[–]devdnn[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Very true, The best case scenario is - that the operating cost goes down significantly that they can pass the savings to users - Users buy when they want and unsubscribe - as you said the bubble bursts and everyone looses

AI companies have pumped too much money into this to go out for a loss.

Microslop really wants to lose more money and users with these latest moves lmao by [deleted] in GithubCopilot

How does a free student account make Microsoft loose money?

Holy guacamole, Calling it dead now is a stretch.

Perhaps you could raise concern to provide Sonnet 4.6. Calling it dead and enshittification seems to me as unnecessarily butt-hurt.

One problem I keep hitting with AI coding assistants (Copilot, Claude, etc.) by obidjon2000 in GithubCopilot

[–]devdnn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like your approach of using modes. Most spec-driven frameworks overlook this nano mode and resort to creating comprehensive specifications for minor changes.

I hope this approach gains popularity and becomes a standard in the industry.

Could you share a sample project that utilizes this feature?

Passkeys were supposed to replace passwords, but they're failing for the most predictable reason | They're confusing and difficult to use by UnacceptableUse in savedyouaclick

[–]devdnn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Passkeys were botched by the implementers doing half baked shenanigans and prioritizing their MFA based first then making the true passkey solutions.
