@amackera It's almost a very-obvious-in-hindsight way of building agentic workflows and connecting together decision making systems.

Seems like every AI company is either a) rolling out LangGraph, or b) rolling their own LangGraph.

@mntruell Bro your coding agent doesn't respect your editors on settings? Composer 2 will just write code to the repo in plan mode!

I think it's impossible to build long term maintainable software if you are using LLMs and not reviewing/ vetting every line. LLMs brute force their way through problems, duplicating code, adding hacks and adding layers of indirection. If you don't prune it early, it spirals out of control.

im fully convinced that LLMs are not an actual net productivity boost (today) they remove the barrier to get started, but they create increasingly complex software which does not appear to be maintainable so far, in my situations, they appear to slow down long term velocity

@FfMeryll Valkyrie Profile was a crazy experience the first time I played it. Amazing game and so unique, I don't think anyone has ever (successfully) tried to recreate that experience.

On this day, 31 years ago... My favorite RPG studio, tri-Ace, was founded by key creators of Tales of Phantasia! Today, tri-Ace counts 174 employees and is still led by Yoshiharu Gotonda, who has been a lead programmer, writer & director on many tri-Ace games from the start.

@trikcode Their bosses are the ones forcing them to use Claude Code at gunpoint.

Software engineers are the happiest people on Earth now. They pay $100/month for Claude Code to do the work. Their employer pays them $10,000/month for the results. $9,900 profit for sipping coffee and talking to AI. The funniest part? Not a single dev with a full-time job will ever admit this publicly What a time to be alive.

As a heavy user of AI, this is total bullshit. I can't count the number of times the agent has lied to me about what the problem is and I just had to "know" that wasn't it. Does it help sometimes? Sure. Do you still get stuck? Yes. Is there a new class of AI problems? Also Yes
Jared Friedman@snowmaker

I realized something else AI has changed about coding: you don't get stuck anymore. Programming used to be punctuated by episodes of extreme frustration, when a tricky bug ground things to a halt. That doesn't happen anymore.

AI generated music is so stupid. You ask it to make a Jungle track and it makes you a DnB track smdh.

We’re renaming the YC spring batches from X25 and (what was going to be) X26 to P25 and P26 — P for Primavera, which literally means “first spring” in Latin-derived languages. The original X was a cute programmer in-joke, but people kept asking “what does X stand for?”, so we’re switching to something that actually says “spring” while still keeping it to a single letter.

Postgres has a problem: connections. PgBouncer is the solution, but it's not so simple. We've got the guide for how to optimize your connections for any database size.
