I enjoyed Good Work's recent coverage on this subject: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W0ltbBby9FU

Is this implying that you don't believe people will hire programmers anymore?

Someone claiming to be the creator of Dark Castle says they are working on a 40th anniversary edition in the comments of that video.


Another commenter figured out how to spell "Woah! Wueeeueehh, wueeeueehh, wueeeueehh! Mmmbrbrbrbr!"

If you can cure a cancer by framing it as a data analysis exercise that doesn't seem to be a bad thing.


Children generally have these things called "parents" who are supposedly responsible for their well being. Oh hey, suddenly there isn't a contradiction.


Right, helicopter parenting. Gets a lot of praise here, I forgot.


Empower parents. Parental controls are a minefield - especially with competing companies (ea, microsoft, steam, nintendo, apple) all doing their best to get you to turn them off so they can push lootboxes and other junk more easily.


you may be surprised to learn that you can be a parent and have rules without being a "helicopter parent".

given your other bad faith comments in this thread, though, im sure you know that and are just trying to be contrarian for... fun? is it fun?


I'm not as good as Fabrice Bellard either but I don't let that bother me as I go about my day.


From the article:

  Historically, it would take a reasonably long period of consistent effort and many iterations of refinement for a good developer to produce 10,000 lines of quality code that not only delivered meaningful results, but was easily readable and maintainable. While the number of lines of code is not a measure of code quality—it is often the inverse—a codebase with good quality 10,000 lines of code indicated significant time, effort, focus, patience, expertise, and often, skills like project management that went into it. Human traits.

  Now, LLMs can not only one-shot generate that in seconds,
Evidence please. Ascribing many qualities to LLM code that I haven't (personally) seen at that scale. I think if you want to get an 'easily readable and maintainable' codebase of 10k lines with an LLM you need somebody to review its contributions very closely, and it probably isn't going to be generated with a 1 shot prompt.


It’s like the google claim. There was a years worth of work up front, but AI took the typing from a few days to a day.


The first one is pretty funny because Gmail search itself has a lot of issues.


Vague nonsense


What felt vague about it? Personally while I'm not sure how to interpret the potential market impact (or lack there of) I thought it was an interesting hypothesis, especially the quote at the end:

> “One day, the successor to Claude Code will make a superhuman interface available to everyone. And if Tokens were TCP/IP, Claude Code is the first genuine website built in the age of AI. And this is going to hurt a large part of the software industry.”

“I believe that all software must leave information work as soon as possible. I believe that the future role of software will not have much ‘information processing’, i.e., analysis. Claude Code or Agent-Next will be doing the information synthesis, the GUI, and the workflow. That will be ephemeral and generated for the use at hand. Anyone should be able to access the information they want in the format they want and reference the underlying data.

What I’m trying to say is that the traditional differentiation metrics will change. Faster workflows, better UIs, and smoother integrations will all become worthless, while persistent information, a la an API, will become extremely valuable.”


Not that your comment is relevant, but why is there a narrative of obstruction when you can visibly see Renee Good wave another truck by moments before she was killed?

The newly released footage is truly a political Rorschach test. It is unbelievable to me that anyone without diminished mental capabilities could believe that exonerates the camera man.
