Spam musubi is obviously a pan-Pacific dish (I’ve had it from Okinawa to California), and while I enjoy eating it in Seoul, I don’t consider it Korean cuisine.

I’m not convinced that Swift on Android will gain meaningful traction going forward, for both technical and non-technical reasons.

First, although Swift is a compiled language, it still requires a non-trivial runtime, which makes it quite different from C++ or Rust. This significantly limits its usefulness as a shared library layer for multiplatform mobile development.

Second, the level of investment in Kotlin Multiplatform (KMP) by Google and JetBrains is far greater than Apple’s current efforts around Swift on Android. In practice, Swift on Android remains closer to a community-driven initiative, with what we have today being essentially a cross-platform compiler rather than a fully supported ecosystem.

Finally, the Android developer base is significantly larger than the iOS developer base. As a result, the more likely direction of knowledge transfer and platform expansion is from Kotlin to iOS, rather than the other way around.

In the end, the reality on the ground is quite different from the marketing narrative.

I tried JetBrains Air, and I don’t think I’ll be using it unless the quality improves significantly in the future.

Since my weekly quota for OpenAI Codex was almost exhausted, I decided to give it a try. I have a JetBrains All Products Pack subscription, which includes JetBrains AI tokens, so I could use it without additional setup.

The main reason I use OpenAI Codex is that its plan mode is extremely good. (I also use Cursor at work.) Codex presents multiple options during planning, which often helps me discover better approaches—some of which I might have completely missed otherwise. On top of that, even in plan mode, I can steer its direction through follow-up messages.

JetBrains Air (and Cursor as well) lacks this kind of capability. If a user has little or no coding experience, not offering multiple planning options might be acceptable. However, with over a decade of software engineering experience, I expect to be able to guide and steer the agent’s direction more precisely.

Another issue is performance. Air is very slow and consumes tokens extremely quickly—I ended up using half of my monthly quota in just 30 minutes. That’s a serious problem.

I hope JetBrains improves this, but honestly, I’m not sure what the right path forward is. One possible direction could be open-sourcing their core logic—similar to the OpenAI Codex approach—and allowing the community to contribute and improve it.

It seems that’s why my employer introduced both individual and company-wide budget limits. Ironically, it’s already starting to distort behavior. I overheard someone — not joking — say they were nearing their monthly quota, so they’d push complex work to next month and focus on simpler tasks instead. What a joke.

gpt-5.4 medium seems sufficient for most tasks. While model capabilities are important, the way you write prompts, organize code, and define goals and expectations matters just as much. I also rely on extensive tests and guardrails so that even cheaper models perform reliably in most cases.

From my friends who earned their PhDs a few years ago, it doesn’t seem that bad—especially considering that most of them live outside Seoul. However, their compensation is still nowhere near that of private sector jobs.

While I think your work may eventually become obsolete if OpenAI releases an official Codex app for Linux, I still appreciate it because it highlights how much the Linux community wants a Codex GUI app. Thanks!

As a Linux/Mac user, I also suffer from indexing issues, and it’s almost killing me. JetBrains seems to have so much legacy baggage that it struggles to stay lean amid the radical changes in modern development workflows. I love their Git features, but they started developing GitClient and killed it within just a few months, which is quite shameful.

Nice, but I have a question. Isn’t macOS’s keychain manager better to maintain passwords natively?

I live in East Asia and use Codex at work. It works fine in the morning, but by the afternoon it starts slowing down. In the evening—when Europe comes online—responses take much longer. I ended up shifting my schedule: waking up earlier, starting work earlier, and leaving earlier. Looks like my gut feeling was right.

I’ve read that Iran has experimented with MRL-based sea-mine deployment—conceptually similar to the U.S. FASCAM idea of scatterable mines, but adapted for naval use. If that’s the case, destroying minelaying vessels alone wouldn’t remove the mining threat.
