I miss the days when Github was the "Social Coding" platform, not "the world’s most widely adopted AI-powered developer" platform.

Maybe Github should update their statistics to newer citations than 2024 in regards to productivity?

I'll see myself out.
2025 Steve Ballmer would sound more like Tarzan than anything else.
It's not developers, developers, developers. But aiaiaiai.
GH without it's own CEO means less strategic independence (if they ever had one?). Also being a sub devision of CoreAI I think shows more than ever what their intensions of hosting all codebases are. They should stop charging per user and action minutes.
Your codebase is payment enough.
I remember being skeptical of Microsoft buying GitHub, but I have to admit they’ve done a lot of good things at GitHub. Easy to forget how stale GH was in the feature department for a good while before MS.
Yet here I am, skeptical again. Guessing MS has been sous-vide-ing this frog.

09.08.2025 11:33 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0And could we please stop with the engagement signaling for techs and AI. I’m getting tired of everyone trying to outshine the next person in saying how amazing something is. Some times OK is better than insane, and some times we need to save our superlatives to have room for escalations.
09.08.2025 11:32 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0As I’ve said before, this doesn’t mean LLMs are unusable even for programming. But it means we need to be honest (IMO) what its strenghts are and not. Stop trying to out-yell your next YouTuber on how this time everything really has changed. Demos are not the best parameter for evaluating tech.
09.08.2025 11:32 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0The problem with demos vs real life has never been bigger. LLMs show really impressive demos – like, really impressive. But it is under a false pretence. It has been the same with images for a while. You are either happy with what you get, or forget about it.
09.08.2025 11:32 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0It is currently no different with GPT-5. You can even clearly see it in videos trying to hype it up as much as possible: youtu.be/BUDmHYI6e3g?...
When getting limitations on fictive requirements (demos) we just adjust our requirements. In real life, we don’t have that luxury.
Some 20 years ago we got the WYSIWYG era of development. You could just point and click and create websites – no programming needed! (It seemed)
Now we are in the WYGIWYG era with LLM based development. What you get, is what you get. Your systems dictate your requirements, by limitations.
Tror det å kunne snakke menneske til menneske, fremfor menneske til ny-opprettet-konto vil bidra til en mer lærerik erfaringsutveksling. Det er en bransjeavis som tar opp ulike folk, selskaper og temaer og da kanskje ekstra nyttig å få konstruktive meningsutvekslinger.

Ulike meninger og perspektiver er gull verdt, men jeg syns oftere og oftere vi ser mer destruktive kommentarer som gjemmer seg bak det anonyme og tillater seg til å komme med usanne påstander.

14.07.2025 09:10 — 👍 0 🔁 1 💬 1 📌 0But again, this only matters if the code is important. If it’s not important, you can evaluate the result/execution of the code separately.
20.06.2025 14:43 — 👍 2 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0It is often good for syntax in my mind, but it quickly gets confused about things like libraries (especially new versions), built-in APIs, etc., and often gives very bad advice that is hard to separate from good advice. Syntax is usually the trivial part in any case.
20.06.2025 14:43 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0I find it hard to precisely articulate the nuances of “yes, it is impressive,” but at the same time “it is very much underperforming,” while still recognizing that it can bring value – yet in many cases also reduce value.
19.06.2025 17:49 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0I still find myself in discussions around using LLMs to generate code and what impact it will have on the industry on short term and long term. And these are discussions I kind of care little about, but also care a lot about.
19.06.2025 17:49 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 2 📌 0Only use agent mode to generate larger features or solutions if you don’t care about the code.
This may sound like a tongue-in-cheek comment, but it isn’t. There are many situations where the code, and its quality, aren’t important.
But there are *more* times when you *should* care about the code
Innrømmer at tittelen kanskje ikke er like fengende og skummel. Men samtidig litt mer korrekt.
06.06.2025 17:25 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0Alternativ tittel: "Gode nyheter for jobbsøkere: Langt flere jobber lyst ut i mai sammenlignet med mai 2024 – som er mer naturlig sammenligningsgrunnlag enn foregående måned da det er rart å tenke at utlysninger har vekst måned for måned og ikke være påvirket av sommerferier og slikt".

Sjekk det ut i din podcatcher of choice, eller på shows.acast.com/kortslutning...
But I guess not the extended editions, since you’ve had the time to produce high amount of good posts

How do you keep your codebase structured as it grows? Mikael had answers that future-you will thank you for!
