@AdamRackis Again, this is why I just ask for essentially mini waterfall-esque design docs from Claude and still continue to write the code myself
I’ve seen examples like this many times

The more I use these ai tools, the more I feel the need to closely verify the output

The Colts are not definitively worse than they were at the end of last season. They are definitively better.

"They're definitively worse." Derrik and @robertmays share their thoughts on the Indianapolis Colts after the first week of free agency.

@staysaasy I moved to Indiana for 5 years before moving back to Florida, had a “reunited” hang out with my closest friends I’ve had since literally middle school.
1 knew I moved but didn’t know where, another had no idea I had moved away from FL in the first place

This is very accurate, but the rabbit hole goes way deeper on dimensions of male friendship that I need to explain to my wife.
Example #1: Most groups of male friends >5 have a guy who is relentlessly abused by the rest. This person will be mistreated in both small and sometimes very large ways, often involving real humiliation. Despite this, he is always one of the most central members of the friend group, which can often be measured in quantitative ways (e.g. Best Man at a majority of weddings within the group).
Example #2: Knowledge of personal details about male friends is basically independent from how close you are with them. Examples of lines that I have heard from male friends, where people either had absolutely no idea to the point of not having guesses, or had hilariously opposite assumptions:
* "Does have a father? Is he alive?"
* "Does anyone know where has been living for the last 5 years?"
This was among groups of people who were literally groomsmen at one another's weddings, had gone to school together for years, partners were also best friends etc.

Hot take as a woman who actually has really wholesome female friendships: male friendships are kind of… insane. two men can hang out for 4 hours, say maybe 17 total words, share a bag of chips, send each other one stupid reel, and go home like “great catching up bro.” no emotional recap. no post-hangout analysis. no “did I say something weird when I laughed?” they can go 6 months without talking, then meet again and immediately pick up the exact same joke from 2017. women meanwhile will do a full psychological autopsy on a slightly delayed reply. I’m not even judging. I’m just observing a level of emotional minimalism that feels both deeply confusing and… kind of powerful.

This isn’t true. @JayVeeThree is so much better

I keep telling my juniors to go into plan mode, but explain the problem statement and then create a design document using Claude
But that you write the code yourself, you get a feel for issues as you type it out (like repeating a sentence back to yourself for clarity)
I don’t think they’re doing it at all, but that’s my advice to them now lol
English
Something nobody’s talking about:
Senior engineers have to review AI code. Cool. But how do junior and mid-levels become senior without years of writing code by hand?
Smashing the magic button and tossing the result to a senior engineer for review does not make you a senior
Lukasz Olejnik@lukOlejnik
Amazon is holding a mandatory meeting about AI breaking its systems. The official framing is "part of normal business." The briefing note describes a trend of incidents with "high blast radius" caused by "Gen-AI assisted changes" for which "best practices and safeguards are not yet fully established." Translation to human language: we gave AI to engineers and things keep breaking? The response for now? Junior and mid-level engineers can no longer push AI-assisted code without a senior signing off. AWS spent 13 hours recovering after its own AI coding tool, asked to make some changes, decided instead to delete and recreate the environment (the software equivalent of fixing a leaky tap by knocking down the wall). Amazon called that an "extremely limited event" (the affected tool served customers in mainland China).

Straight up, if we lose Pierce I prob won’t watch this year
This is a massively stupid game Ballard is playing, never seen someone go from top 10 GM to bottom 10 so fast man
English
@VicVijayakumar @staysaasy Still haven’t come up with a good solution to this btw. Don’t really want to put a token cap on the engineers but at the same time rolling this as an expense in our funding also… very bad.
Both avenues imo are going to lead to less productivity overall
English
@staysaasy This is a relevant tweet. x.com/coltsguy505/st…
ColtsGuy505@ColtsGuy505
Couldn’t agree more Also no one is talking about the cost of token usage I took a look at the power bi report of our Claude usage with our engineers The seniors with previous knowledge have low costs with huge gains, the juniors are just force prompting the shit out of it to mixed results

I helped out one of my teams this week by coding up one of their backlog tasks.
It was a one sentence description. In previous ecosystems I would have asked for clarification first, but everyone is so busy, I just plopped it into Cursor and started vibing.
I got a working solution quickly and QAed it and sent it out for review.
A few hours later someone reviewed and said hey this is great but actually more sophisticated than we need. The ticket wasn’t clear we just want a simpler thing.
Ok cool I said. Vibed some more. Fixed tip. Sent it out.
Few hours later I got more feedback. Hey actually we also need this minor thing that wasn’t in the ticket. No way you could have known that.
Ok. Vibed it up. Sent it out. Final feedback looked good.
I could have saved two rounds of feedback and iteration with a simple conversation about the requirements, but the allure of just doing the magic thing to get it working, and the worry or taking up time from very very busy teammates if I didn’t have to, made me burn tokens for no good reason.
I’ve also noticed that new hires disproportionately burn through tokens. I’m guessing they don’t want to seem dumb or take up peoples time, and instead of talking to someone are talking to an LLM all day.
Interesting forces to think about managing in an org.

@AdamRackis But he is advocating for Congress and the Senate to legislate AI no?
I haven’t seen a quote from him stating he thinks he/Anthropic should be decision maker in what AI can/cannot be used for but I have seen him comment that Congress should
That seems a reasonable stance imo
English
It's easy to hate Trump—but do you REALLY trust Anthropic?
Put your hatred for Trump aside and ask if you want this guy telling the DoD what it can and can't do
Both things can be true: Anthropic's position is correct, and it's absurd to expect they can dictate anything to the DoD
Roman Helmet Guy@romanhelmetguy
Killer robots are coming. When they're here, whoever writes the rules for those killer robots will BE the govt. De facto. The monopoly on violence. Anthropic's founders want to be ones who write the rules for the killer robots. They are making a bid to be the govt. No thank you.
English
Nah you absolutely did. Now your sins have come home to roost, and I refuse to let you pretend like this isn't the exact thing that you campaigned and voted for.
Burn.
Marjorie Taylor Greene 🇺🇸@mtgreenee
I did not campaign for this. I did not donate money for this. I did not vote for this, in elections or Congress. This is heartbreaking and tragic. And how many more innocent will die? What about our own military? This is not what we thought MAGA was supposed to be. Shame!
English
With no due respect.
Yes it is, and if you didn’t know you’re dumber than I thought you were
(Which I didnt think possible)

@AdamRackis I think it’s good they didn’t acquiesce to a dictators demands
But also that it’s vile that none of these AI companies are taking ownership/responsibility of the capabilities that their technology could and probably will be used for
English
The Anthropic thing is so vile
"We created something that can easily be an existential threat to humanity. So we'll just throw a tantrum over contract conditions with the DoD, while our competitors give in"
No introspection. No my god what have we done, or we need to shut this down.
Just looking to the next white collar work to streamline and hopefully turn a profit for their VCs
Fuck them all

@VeveJones007 Agents playing hardball knowing Ballard is in hot water
English
The market is pretty much set on a Jones deal
Either sources are being dramatic or someone’s being unserious
Stephen Holder@HolderStephen
Regarding the negotiations w QB Daniel Jones and WR Alec Pierce, they weren’t close as of my last conversations. I would say the franchise tag AND transition tag are in play. Ballard tends to work on deadline, so this isn’t surprising IMO. The market for Pierce is 📈
English
Couple things here
1. This is why you should have signed him mid season (Pierce)
2. This is why you should have moved on from Ballard already
CLew 🏈🏀⚾️🥊@droppedballs_fb
Not close on Daniel Jones and Alec Pierce? Wonder what their demands are. If Pierce is over $25M APY and DJ is over $35M APY, I’d let them both walk tbh.

You’ve got to be fucking kidding me
They’re just full on mask off at this point it’s crazy

Mike Rounds says Republicans just want to make you show your document with a yellow star in order to vote

@valhalla_dev To this day my biggest challenges are just dealing with enterprise red tape for simple shit
But bug fixes and feature dev is much faster now
English
As LLM's have become more adept at software development, I have viewed this solely through the lens of "I can develop things much faster now" instead of viewing it through the lens of "I can work on significantly harder problems now."
Going to work on fixing that this weekend.

@tekbog Then why tf am I making so many confluence page documents Why am I getting my Jira, confluence, swagger and everything under the sun well organized for this damn machine overlord??

> the full context needed to do the job is available to an AI agent (via the code base)
BuccoCapital Bloke@buccocapital
I thought Dwarkesh had a good point that software engineering is the only job where the full context needed to do the job is available to an AI agent (via the code base) And I didn’t think Dario had a good answer for why automating other jobs will be as easy

the downside about Jake Paul getting people into boxing
we have takes like this

I’m not denying that he got my eyeballs. I’m denying that he’s a boxer, guy can’t even keep his guard up into two rounds.
