plainoldchair @plainoldchair.bsky.social · 12/10/2026Basically, the requisite level of organizational thinking and clear expression is a skill in itself that I can feel myself exercising and improving, and will probably serve me well even when writing things by hand, which will constitute the vast majority of code I write for the foreseeable future 000
plainoldchair @plainoldchair.bsky.social · 12/10/2026Obviously, I could take the more stereotypical "vibe-coding" approach and just... not bother, giving the agent a more vague description of the problem and going with whatever it comes up with that seems reasonable. But if the details matter (and to me, they basically always do) then that doesn't fly 110
plainoldchair @plainoldchair.bsky.social · 12/10/2026This can be easy not to do when I'm just writing code myself! It's not a great habit, but it's easy to just wing it and figure out the details as I go. Offloading the grunt work to a machine requires greater up-front clarity, a solid definition of the solution, and the ability to express that. 100
plainoldchair @plainoldchair.bsky.social · 12/10/2026It's tempting to have it look into problems and figure out solutions, and I want my ability to do that *myself* to improve rather than diminish. However, if I want it to *write* something, it forces me to define and explain the problem and intended result very clearly and, well, definitively. 110
plainoldchair @plainoldchair.bsky.social · 12/10/2026I've barely touched using agents for code (I don't want to touch corporate LLM products any more than needed, for various reasons), but in terms of "deskilling" it really feels like a double edged sword: I can see it atrophying some of the more nitty-gritty skills, while possibly improving others? 100
