I think the response would be something about the value of enjoying art and "supporting the film industry" when streaming vs what that person sees as a totally worthless, if not degrading, activity. I'm more pro-AI than anti-AI, but I keep my opinions to myself IRL currently. The economics of the situation have really tainted being interested in the technology
I'm not sure about that: The Expanse got killed because of not good enough ratings, Altered Carbon got killed because of not good enough ratings and even then the last seasons before the axe are typically rushed and pushed out the door. Some of the incentives to me seem quite disgusting when compared with letting the creatives tell a story and producing art, even if sometimes the earnings are less than some greedy arbitrary metric.
Not at all. Submitting untested PRs is a wildly outside of my experience. Having tests written to cover your code is a pre-requisite for having your PR reviewed on our team. "Does it work" aka passing manual testing, is literally the bare minimum before submitting a PR
We don't, that's why we do review it. We also do things like communicate with teammates, have expectations of not wasting other people's time, and try to uphold standards and meet SLAs. Maybe people should worry about why their teams are so dysfunctional rather than how the code was produced
When I was in a test-driven development environment, one of our rules was that you had to see the test fail. You had to prove that it would actually test what you were trying to test.
It is really interesting to watch them for a while. QWEN keeps outputting some really abstract interpretations of a clock, KIMI is consistently very good, GPT5's results line up exactly with my experience with its code output (overly complex and never working correctly)
I've always tried to apply "The Internet gives a fuck about what you don't like" when it comes to commenting, but it's also helpful to remember it's not just the Internet.
Greenfield development of small web apps. I’m familiar enough with everything that I can get something up and running on my own, but I don’t do it regularly so I need to read a lot of docs to be up to date. I can describe the basic design and requirements of an app and have something like Claude Code spit out a prototype in a couple of hours
For me, on small personal projects, I can get a project to a point in about 4 hours where previous to new AI tools it would’ve taken about 40. At work, there is a huge difference due to the complexity of the code base and services. Using agents to code for me in these cases as 100% been the loop of iterating on something so often, I would’ve been better off with a more hands on approach, essentially just reviewing PRs written by AI.
