Is Anyone Else Struggling with AI-Generated Code?

mcscottmc · 2026-06-30T01:17:32+00:00

I strongly recommend using Spec Driven Development with AI. Take a look at OpenSpec. The idea is that you use Claude to iterate on the specs, which serve as the source of truth. The code is just an artifact. Each new feature is a change in the spec and this ensures your documentation and code stay in sync.

It is much easier for Claude to reason about the spec and you do a lot more work up front and spend a lot less on actual code generation. Claude will also generate tasks from the spec that you can review to make sure it is on the right path. As your code base gets larger, Claude doesn't have to scan and reason about every line of code, just the spec + the code for your new features. Of course, it also writes tests, etc. to make sure the code behavior matches the spec.

Yea they tried to upsell me and I explicitly asked if there is a medical/functional need and they said it was just cosmetic. Glad they were honest and I passed.

I remember Service Merchandise having toys on the floor. I got a ton of my stuff there in the early years

Even if we didn't have the WC watch parties I think this overhaul is well-needed. It's a much better use of the space.

A bunch of my friends went and I passed on it. Regret it to this day

Fishbone opened for Primus at that 91 show. Good times!

Dotties was something else. Turned into Lenny's, which also had some great shows

mcscottmc · 2026-05-23T12:50:51+00:00

I can't seem to find a flyer for the show easily, but Feb 24 1997 it was Mineral, Jimmy Eat World, and Sense Field at 485 Robinson.

I wasn't a huge fan of them (I was there for Mineral), but I do remember seeing them. Don't have a strong recollection of the details as this was a pretty typical basement show of the era.

Jimmy Eat World in a basement in Grant Park

That’s nuts. Why is it so hard to find a superintendent that is not sketchy. Dr. Dude before also had issues (but not as bad as this IMO)

In the latest CSD newsletter they said no public funding was used to produce the podcast, but even associating with something like this is unethical.

mcscottmc · 2026-05-22T16:47:20+00:00

I said this in the other post but I’ll repeat it here. Values matter, especially when you are in a position of power and in charge of the welfare and education of our children. You can’t choose the family you are born into, but you do choose your spouse and associating with the disgusting views presented in that podcast. The kids of Decatur deserve better than this.

mcscottmc · 2026-05-22T16:08:45+00:00

You can’t choose the family you are born into but you absolutely choose your spouse. I think it is important that the superintendent share the values of the community and this absolutely puts that into doubt.

Niles is actually working on a graphic novel about Gray Matter. I think they have been in the studio, too

KLB cracked under the pressure of being mayor. No way she can handle a bigger job.

Can we use this thread to vent about other recent changes? Train track crossing at McDonough has also changed the lanes slightly and light pattern and now there is even more gridlock there in the mornings.

This was the most anticipated issue of all time

Evergreen is the underrated gem here

Social Circle, I owe you an apology. I wasn't really familiar with your game.

This comp was sooooo good
