@VinciRSS whats cringe ?

Is it worth it to put LLMs in skills in resume or is it cringe?

Typical coding day with Claude (Opus 4.8) - explain to Claude the task (5 minutes) - Claude implements task (10 minutes) me: "Why is this necessary?" Claude: "You're right to push back! I over-engineered this!" - Repeat x87 times (13 hours)

Knows the possibilities of it happening

@Cowboycodey AI detox, try days without it

Dang it. I forgot how to code with all these agents. Do I need to go back to a boot camp to relearn it all?

@tlakomy You could be building the right thing, but the model gets you wrong

Ironically, as the cost of line of code approaches zero, spending the time building the wrong thing has never been more expensive.

@rxhit05 LLms tend to write sloppy code even if it looks perfect, who's gonna deal with it if none should code

I don't think most developers should be learning to code in 2026

@Gamingtronium Use my brain

Imagine if: - GitHub got blocked - GitLab got blocked - Bitbucket got blocked - Stack Overflow got blocked What would you do?

@e0syn What do you do to know if AI gave you true/false suggestion ?

google it -> go ask AI

@VinciRSS Same

Being a good software developer and becoming important by an accident is a nightmare. I may be considered one of the best devs on the team, but that doesn't matter at all, I earn as much as others, but just end up working more.

@niyabits Untill you hit its limitation then you understand its just a text model that learned what to say given a context, at the end, software isnt memorizing words, plus nowadays it costs a lot with no actual productivity investment

Does anybody else find themselves demotivated to code manually after seeing everyone use AI?

Sooner or later when you realise that cussing dynamic programming won't give you a job but doing it will

A dev got so frustrated watching his AI agent write 500 lines for a 5-line problem that he built a fix. He called it Ponytail. Named after the guy every team has - long ponytail, oval glasses, been there longer than the version control. You show him fifty lines; he looks at them, says nothing, and replaces them with one. Now your agent does the same. Before writing anything, it looks for a reason not to. 80-94% less code. 47-77% cheaper. 3-6x faster. The best code is the code you never wrote.

A junior engineer sees: - Kubernetes - Terraform - Docker - Prometheus - Grafana - Istio A senior engineer sees: - Compute - Networking - Storage - Observability - Automation Tools change every few years. Fundamentals survive every hype cycle.

it costs me nearly the double or more of claude usage these days to get something useful

@TomRichard_0100 @jayair thanks, will try that out, but honestly, it feels different than yesterday

@samy_42dev @jayair Try Haiku for a fun reminder of how shit it is compared to just Sonnet lol

Introducing Opus 4.9 — 10% smarter, 2x more expensive Definitely NOT Fable

@Umesh__digital explain this to someone that doesnt do your job, and use windows to make life worse

Hot Take: Never buy a 16GB RAM in 2026.

@stanlee0nX Single thread executive doesnt cause side effects

why do senior backend devs look down on Node.js/Express backend devs?”

@madeitallback get good at one thing

im a 22yo cs grad - no internship aligned - never grinded leetcode once in my life - used ai to do every single assignments - gambled all my student loans on memecoins - github is 100% claude code slop i dont even understand - hairline is receding Ist Es Over Für Mich?

@Neeraj_x0 @Arpitsharma_0 Principles of Web API Design - Addison-Wesley Signature Series

@samy_42dev @Arpitsharma_0 Can I get the title?

Hey devs, I'm confused. Which should I build first? - Frontend - Backend
