I am seeing a lot of "software engineers are over" kind of posts on my timeline. Real engineers will still thrive imo, it's the best time to be one but If your strongest asset was knowing the syntax of a framework, you're fucked.

The term is on point and I've seen it happening in pretty much every org - an employee that feels empowered by AI thinking he/she is moving the needle by doing 10x more with AI while in reality producing slop that only adds work for others. The most important skill is knowing how "good" look like.

Business insider - Shopify CEO says employee slop granades are making more work for everyone else

What a great time to come back into social media and immediately encounter this wonderful piece of thought from @danielroe.dev . There's a lot of nuance to being nice for sure and being too nice is missing the point of why it's a good thing to be in the first place.

Ok this time for real. What did I miss?

Ping! Back to socials 😇

@filrakow.ski telling us how to ensure our developer future! Great insights on the current market too! Very interesting with great tips to accelerate yourself as a developer!

I used to struggle too so I started doing it in the morning. It's a really good way to kick off the day as long as it's energizing you

I need an IDE that responds with an insult when I insult it's LLM

I saw www.trae.ai and it made me wonder if really we need another AI VS Code fork... Windsurf is completely enough. Even Cursor probably is but I just had skill issues with it.

It's crazy how many low quality companies are our there. Just saw something that is YC backed and could be built with a few prompts.

Huh, it's been a while since I was on social apps (and I recommend everyone taking a break from time to time). How is bsky doing? Still getting dev traction?

I can't believe that you need to pay for analytics to check who has viewed your document in Confluence

I don't recall what I was doing on February 20th, 2019 but it looks like I achieved my peak productivity on that day 😅

People talk a lot about building products with AI, but I think we don't talk enough about using AI to replace imperative workflows. There is so much potential for things like extensibility, project scaffolding, etc. Hundreds of ifs can just retire!

Still doing the thing. I'm legitimately no longer an adult. I went beck in time.

Filip Rakowski @filrakow.ski · 07/01/2025

Two weeks without work and work -related stuff and it feels like it's been a month. Good to be back tho. Doing adult stuff is not as bad as they say

Filip Rakowski @filrakow.ski · 06/01/2025

Can you elaborate why do you think this is weird? Dev tools are just products. Products need funding to develop and grow. If the community is not willing to fund it's tools (which is a sad reality in dev took space) the authors need to look for money elsewhere.

1️⃣ Authentication (AuthN) has always been a challenge. When I started building apps as a teenager, it was already tricky. Now, with PassKeys, MFA, magic links, and SMS-based MFA, it’s a whole new level. Here's what I've learned 🧵 #authn #backend #nodejs

Shipped absolutely nothing in the last week and it feels great

Same for me. It's hard to resist the urge to be productive even on holidays. Though I have 0 regrets for watching YT and playing video games the last few days. I'm healed.

Already used the free one in one day. This is where Cursor wins for sure

Filip Rakowski @filrakow.ski · 20/12/2024

Two days of tests and I like it a lot! Properly setting up global/project instructions is a game-changer. You can bake in all conventions, context etc there which makes AI suggestions 10x better. UI is also nicer than in Cursor. Though I wouldn't say any available editor is noticeably better.

I'm in Zara rn and I literally cannot tell if I am looking at men or women part of the store. It's been a while since I felt so lost.

I've been always spending the most time on shipping an early working version. Now it comes at no cost and even if it is terrible it's easier to come up with an optimized version than to come up with v0. Cool thing is that you can adjust your prompts over time to make v0s almost v1s.

I know that I'm a boomer, but I just used the @nuxt.com devtools for the first time, and they are magnificent! Sooo many great and well-executed ideas for enhancing DX! Chapeau bas @antfu.me!

I'd say it's comparable but definitely gets your codebase better than Cursor for my projects. Also project/global prompts are a cool addition.

Filip Rakowski @filrakow.ski · 18/12/2024

Let's see if this Windsurf is any better than Cursor 🕵️

So we're back to hustle culture? I thought it started to improve recently. As someone who did a lot of hustling for my own startup (quite successful one) I can say it wasn't worth it. It's a debt you'll have to pay back in the least convenient time.

The guy in the grocery store just wished me a good weekend and now I want my good weekend

Hah 😃 That's what happens when you actually launch it and need to start the management stuff

Also use whatever tf you want as long as it solves the problem in a good enough way in a good enough timeframe

Wow. That's a bad take with an easter egg bad take in it
