new folder. haven't even said anything to the agent yet. it already ran git status to "get context." the repo's .git/config already ran a command. i'm still reading the readme.

agent finished the feature in six minutes. tests passed, everything green, looked done. spent the next three days finding out what "done" actually meant.

everywhere's short staffed. also record numbers of people can't find work. nobody explains that part.

buildaditya.bsky.social @buildaditya.bsky.social · 04/09/2026

the bug is still in prod but the test that would've caught it doesn't exist anymore so per the suite, we're good

used to read every line because I wrote it now I read every line because I didn't somehow this is the harder version

qemu got 132 bug reports in under 10 minutes zero followed the template zero showed any sign a human looked at the code first generating the report is free reading the 132nd one is not

maintainers didn't sign up to review reports they signed up to review code now the code is the easy part

my code review process now has two steps did the fix work why did it touch the database config

cancelled my subscription to a model kept my subscription to a loop that doesn't lose context every third prompt turns out I wasn't in love with the AI, I was in love with not repeating myself

vibe coding didn't remove the need to know code it just moved the test from "can you write it" to "can you tell when it's wrong" still an exam. just open book, closed trust

buildaditya.bsky.social @buildaditya.bsky.social · 17/08/2026

the agent finishes. code looks clean. tests pass. my hand still goes back to the keyboard to check it anyway trust isn't a feature you ship. it's a habit you can't uninstall #AI #SoftwareEngineering #ProgrammingHumor

ran out of Codex credits mid-feature switched to Claude Code like a mage swapping to cantrips after burning all spell slots same feature, three different memories of what we were building #AI #CodingHumor #DeveloperLife

Committed "fix later." That was 8 months ago. Later has commitment issues #Git #ProgrammingHumor #DeveloperLife

everyone wants an AI that ships the feature nobody wants to be on-call when it ships the incident too AI didn't remove risk. it just moved it three days downstream

spent 4 hours optimizing the query spent 4 seconds realizing the index was never applied. turns out the bottleneck was me, cached.

buildaditya.bsky.social @buildaditya.bsky.social · 09/08/2026

running 4 agents at once feeling extremely productive then i close them all and debug the actual bug myself oh right this is the coding part #Debugging #AI #DevHumor

spent 40 minutes deciding which AI should write a 15 line utility the utility took 4 minutes apparently i’m the manager now of four unemployed robots #AI #DevLife #DevHumor

The hill I'll die on as a developer: If your code only works with AI open in another tab... You don't understand the code yet. You understand the autocomplete That difference matters. #coding #AI #SoftwareEngineering

Spent 3 hours debugging why my AI generated code wouldn't run The bug? I copied the code from the chat. Not the code block. Turns out Ctrl+C has a skill issue too #programming #webdev #AI

added one console.log now i'm debugging the logs instead of the bug #Debugging #Programming #DevHumor

buildaditya.bsky.social @buildaditya.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

my favorite debugging tool is opening devtools half the bugs see it panic and never show up again wish the same worked on production issues #Debugging #DevLife #DevHumor

AI wrote the code I wrote the: "yeah that one's on me" message in prod turns out copy/paste is easier than explaining to your team why there's a new auth flow #AI #Programming #DevHumor

buildaditya.bsky.social @buildaditya.bsky.social · 22/07/2026

AI didn't steal junior developer jobs it stole the excuse of "this took me all day" now the real bottleneck is thinking turns out your brain still doesn't have an API #AI #DevHumor #Coding

everyone wants an AI agent that writes perfect code nobody wants to be the person reviewing 600 lines it confidently hallucinated AI didn't remove the boring part it just renamed it to "validation" #AI #Programming #BuildInPublic

claude fable 5 looks nice can't wait to spend the first hour saying "damn this is insane" and the second hour asking "why do i have 3 utils folders now" the models keep getting smarter my repo keeps finding new ways to embarrass me #Claude #AI #DevHumor

AI writes code like that one teammate who says, "Done." Then disappears Now I'm reviewing: • 3 duplicate helpers • 2 imaginary components • 1 existential crisis We're not limited by typing anymore. We're limited by reviewing. #AI #Programming #DevHumor

buildaditya.bsky.social @buildaditya.bsky.social · 15/07/2026

My code works. AI's code works. The merge works. Pick two. #Programming #DevHumor #Git

buildaditya.bsky.social @buildaditya.bsky.social · 15/07/2026

A year ago I measured progress by commits. Now I measure it by decisions I don't have to remake. AI helped me write more code. Experience taught me to delete more of it. #AI #Programming #DevLife

buildaditya.bsky.social @buildaditya.bsky.social · 15/07/2026

Most people use AI to write code. I use it to argue with my ideas. If it can't poke holes in my plan, I probably haven't thought hard enough. The best output isn't code. It's catching mistakes before they exist. #AI #BuildInPublic #SoftwareEngineering

buildaditya.bsky.social @buildaditya.bsky.social · 12/07/2026

The internet would be a much nicer place if people remembered one thing: the person you're arguing with might just be having a terrible day. Life is too short to win comment sections. #Life #Kindness #BuildInPublic

My AI workflow changed completely. I used to tell the agent what to build. Now I ask, "What would you build?" Turns out my best feature this week came from an employee who doesn't exist. #AI #Programming #BuildInPublic

buildaditya.bsky.social @buildaditya.bsky.social · 09/07/2026

People say AI saves time. It does. Just not where I expected. Typing was never my bottleneck. Thinking was. #AI #Programming #BuildInPublic

buildaditya.bsky.social @buildaditya.bsky.social · 09/07/2026

AI didn't remove the hard part of programming. It just moved it. Typing is cheap now. Thinking isn't. #AI #Programming #SoftwareEngineering

buildaditya.bsky.social @buildaditya.bsky.social · 07/07/2026

AI writes code so fast... it also creates bugs I never would've been smart enough to write myself. Efficiency: 10/10 Character development: priceless. #AI #Programming #Coding

010

buildaditya.bsky.social @buildaditya.bsky.social · 07/07/2026

Hot take: The biggest cost of AI coding isn't bugs. It's the false confidence that comes with code you didn't fully think through. Fast prototypes are cheap. Correct software isn't. #AI #GitHubCopilot #Programming

020

buildaditya.bsky.social @buildaditya.bsky.social · 03/07/2026

the AI fixed the bug but the fix introduced 3 assumptions that are definitely going to bite me in 2 weeks. shipping it. #AI #ProgrammingHumor #SoftwareEngineering

buildaditya.bsky.social @buildaditya.bsky.social · 30/06/2026

Using AI feels like ordering express delivery. Your code arrives in minutes. The bugs arrive with premium shipping. #AI #Coding #BuildInPublic

050

buildaditya.bsky.social @buildaditya.bsky.social · 30/06/2026

AI helped me build the feature in 20 minutes. I spent the next 4 hours figuring out why it worked. AI speed is real. AI quality debt sends the invoice later. #AI #Programming #SoftwareEngineering

buildaditya.bsky.social @buildaditya.bsky.social · 27/06/2026

Claude Code, Codex, Cursor... They're incredible tools. But if your first instinct is "ask AI" instead of "understand the bug," you're not building skills. You're renting them. #AI #SoftwareEngineering #Coding

buildaditya.bsky.social @buildaditya.bsky.social · 27/06/2026

The new generation of developers is learning how to prompt before they learn how to think. That's backwards. AI should remove repetitive work. Not the learning. #AI #Programming #BuildInPublic

the codebase has three people who truly understand it. one left in 2019. one quit last month. the third is you, and you wrote it drunk at 2am so you don't count. #webdev #javascript #programming

Interviewer: If Git tracks every change... why do merge conflicts still happen? My favorite answer: Because Git understands code better than developers understand each other. Agree or argue. #DeveloperLife #Git #ProgrammingHumor
