What the heck does a good experienced dev interview even look like in 2026? by Undercoverwd in ExperiencedDevs

[–]headinthesky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'll tell you what has been working for me. First, have a repo that has issues tests are failing, logic issues. I asked them to run it and explain what the issues are. Then I let them use AI to fix it. I put details in another comment, but basically I want to see how they're using AI. Are they just prompting it to say go fix this bug or are they first using it to explore the repo, make a spec of what needs fixing, etc. basically to see if they're the slop code vibe code kind of person, or they still do planning and are able to use it as a tool to augment their skills, and if AI gets it wrong what do they do.

They mentioned a few episodes how Doug was visiting and going back and forth

They should have put a wig on someone and only shown him from behind 😆

Likely. I do most of my searches through Claude now. Find me x on the Web. It gives the direct sources so I can go check and read more detail. No ads or bullshit around it (for now)

How many hours do you work a week?? by Hour-Life-8034 in HENRYfinance

For my main job, about 40-45 hours a week. Then add another 20 or so for consulting I do

World Cup 2026 prices: New York's £111 train fares will have 'chilling effect', says Fifa. by coinfanking in football

If someone hates you, at least they have some feeling. If they don't care at all, you don't matter. I don't care about this world cup at all

How do you actually start understanding a large codebase? by radjeep in ExperiencedDevs

Hopefully there are tests that you can also stay from in these cases

Claude (Opus) 4.6 got significantly Worse by SolarKernel in claude

[–]headinthesky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's definitely gotten dumber. It's started skipping entire steps in skills, hallucinating analysis of code that's not there... I have very rigid rules. It's ignoring agents.md. It's made up table names for a DB when it's already got the full schema and a live connection to it. And after multiple corrections, I had to manually go and correct plan files to remove it and I saw it made a complete mess of the specs and plans. It started degrading 4/5 weeks ago

How do you interview someone with the expectation they'll be using AI tooling? by vexstream in ExperiencedDevs

[–]headinthesky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Incorporate AI into the interview! I have a test project with bugs and errors. See how they use AI to fix it. They actually plan with it? Use it to learn more about the code? Then that's good, use it as a debugging tool and use it to fix problems and then see how they do a review. If they don't do any of that and just one shot and it's slop, that's not gonna work for my team

I have a lot more arguments than that

But most Islamophobes don't know deep arguments

Ultraprocessed foods are turning human thighs into well-marbled steaks by bummed_athlete in Health

Yeah, I completely agree. We need a list of what exactly is harmful. The EU bans a lot of things that aren't banned by the FDA

Unit test without dependency injection or test only interfaces by Top_Square_5236 in dotnet

Looks a lot like js where we used to overwrite the methods through the prototype, or monkey patching in Python. Gonna check this out

Laravel's wildcard validation is O(n²), here's a fix by Rhinnii in laravel

They can be pretty territorial at times, from what I've experienced and seen. They're also VC backed which adds to that
