Those that don't like AI assisted development are just gatekeepers in a long line of gatekeeping insults.

"You use an IDE? Real programmers use vim."

"You use a framework? Real programmers write everything from scratch."

"You use Stack Overflow? Real programmers read documentation."

"You use AI? Real programmers write their own code."

Keep building.

I think workflow optimization is key. You have only 1 fixed asset, which is time. Your goal is to maximize fun, with the available resource. (Probably) So if **nyan cat** helps you optimize your workflows to have more fun, do it. Rest does not matter.

Gatekeepers to inefficiency! F em. Always be shipping!

It's not a matter of using tools; it's a matter of can you comprehend and continue if you don't have access to them.

IDEs have been mind blowing for me

As a developer I’m slowly ramping up my use of AI for development. At this point my concern is mostly that AI is making me lazy.

I feel you on everything but vim. Why you gotta hate on the GOAT

Good luck trying to convince Mastodon about that. nostr:nprofile1qqspsxwjy4edm65k53xplljqqn88hurqyzmtkgsfcseteq35zkz2exg22ftyy knows that all too well, sadly.

I'm now building entire complex apps without writing a single line of code in a language I've never used for a device I've never written for. There's been such a big change in just 6 months that I don't really see software engineering existing soon.

Why not all of them? My Stack Overflow trained AI helps me build right from within Neovim. It's tricked out with more functionality than what you'll find in most IDE's.

Absolutely. It’s a machine. It does probably everything better than you. You wouldn’t fight a car. Most of software development is crazy stupid work. Maintaining it is even worse. Let the computer take care of it. It will be so obvious.

Until vibe coding actually works it just feels like a waste of time and money. With almost not coding experience of your own you can copy and paste other people's code just like the ai does. None of the code the AI writes is original, it's literally just copy pasting other people's code.
