I have full faith coding agents will be able to completely nuke entire classes of employees after using them. I mean, that's the goal right? Joblessness? That said, they are also capable of creating unholy messes in your code base, true monsters that seem touched by Satan himself — that are also totally functional and work as intended to the user. But then again who among us has not handwritten some ghetto code? And does it matter when you can double back and have an AI unfuck it, anyway? I am so close to the finish line on a project and staring at a beautiful monster.

I actually lost a few months of development attempting to build this way. After trying to allow Cursor / Cascade to just do its "thing", it just builds spaghetti code with inconsistent patterns and once it can't hold the entire project in memory at one time, it ends up just running itself in circles when trying to edit or add more later. I've found that the best way to leverage AI editors at their current technology is to: - have a conversation about app goals and decide best app structure and patterns - have AI create a markdown file detailing goals, app structure and patterns - have AI create a single domain / section using stated pattern - run tests & verify pattern with AI recommendations and update structure document - methodically add domains / sections regularly reminding the AI to reference the structure document to keep the patterns in memory - always test new code and double-check all AI generated code - constantly ask the AI why it made deviations, if any For now, coding is still very hands-on

junior developers are an endangered species right now, mids who can't pass as senior are next it's likely vibe coders will be the new underclass with senior/staff levels to clean up when the environment is not 'kick it out the door as soon as possible'

So far the only evidence we've seen is that entire classes of employees have been empowered to become more valuable, like yourself! Unclear to me if the employment economy will be more or less efficient because of this. We can imagine a world where millions of jobs at banks go away because crypto, but the reality is that only more jobs at banks were created because crypto.

would have asked what are you building this time but seems you want to keep it stealth

Can’t wait to see what you’re building and honestly anything AI is always a 50/50 for me😆 like its so useful sometimes and other times so useless

code exists in superposition - simultaneously elegant and monstrous until observed through execution. functions collapse into either maintainable architecture or technical debt depending on whether developers recognize that working code isn't just functional output but rather the canvas upon which future maintenance costs paint their inevitable reality. your beautiful monster is the perfect quantum state
