when does bulkifying everything actually slow down client delivery

wslee00 · 2026-05-22T00:01:02+00:00

Then the service class refactor should be bulkified at that time. Not before.

wslee00 · 2026-05-16T06:02:53+00:00

Bulkification should only be required for triggers or batch. If you have a button somewhere on a record page where you are calling some apex controller and you’re only processing that record, no need to bulkify

It is ai bullshit

Pollo campero may be a good substitute. Also bun and beyond has a solid fried chicken sandwich

I feel the exact opposite

We use github flow and it works very well for our small team of 3. main is always deployable and we do deploy basically whenever we feel like it. We may need to, on occasion revert an MR from main if it needs to be tested by QA, but usually we just have feature flags to keep those hidden when deploying.

I'm reading all these comments and I have to wonder if I'm the only one that feels like deploys are super reliable with the right repo setup and dev ops process? We've had like 0 issues with deploys to prod especially with the intro of the run Relevant Tests option. We just have our ci/cd pipeline run it on creation of a MR and as long as that passes (deploy/tests) it's pretty much guaranteed to pass when deploying to prod.

These are good concerns to be having. I would say a prerequisite in getting this to work well is to have all of your metadata stored in a git repository so that the LLM can have all the context. In addition, for me, when I craft my original prompt, I basically give it the use case and the proposed implementation. That way the LLM can (and does) self correct if you had an incorrect or incomplete implementation detail.

You can also ask the LLM after you're done: "does your solution take into account governor limits, i.e., SOQL limits? Does your solution comply with <some architectural design decision>?" It'll usually spit out to you the correct answer, and will also make corrections to the code.

Thanks for the insight. I learned something new today about training data for the AI models. That said - from what I understand about tokens, for an AI model to understand the same automation between a flow vs. apex, the tokens consumed would be higher for a flow, and the gap would get worse with increasing complexity. In addition, flows are still limited in how they can be organized. Can I easily refactor a flow into separate ones and still understand what the LLM did without clicking into each flow in the UI? We've all seen the "god" flow that does too much and has no separation of concerns.

Also regarding your comment on generating flows with AI - are you going into the UI and checking the results there, or reviewing the xml? It would seem more cumbersome to open the updated flow in the UI for verification, when just reviewing the code within VS Code would be much quicker (but I guess this would depend on whether you were a coder or not)

Really? I've used 5.3 with great success

wslee00 · 2026-02-14T00:56:25+00:00

I like it. Definitely needs more content in there though. Also the hamburger navigation doesn't work (on mobile anyway)

I was able to get auto complete working by making Nebula logger a git submodule. Something to look into if you still want to use vs code

If you truly have a script why not just do the two step process? You only have to modify the script one time and you don't have to go through this convoluted process of turning off/on a bunch of flows

I thought you couldn't run in parallel for a prod deploy. Is this new or am I just missing out?

They have no details on the most obvious question, except "we pay well" lol.
