Today I used AI to help code a feature and it worked pretty well. I am not doing any of this gaslight town stuff, and I went back about 4-5 times with it to make sure we had a mutual understanding -- it's a nice clean patch.

As of the end of the day there was still a bug left, there probably would have been a bug left if I did it myself. Tomorrow i will fix the bug, maybe with some help, and I am on to another ticket.

I treat Junie as a coding buddy (think pair programming) and I don't delude myself that 20 slaves are going to create the Great American Javascript while I sleep. AI coding makes my life better.



I haven’t tried Junie, but I’m using Jetbrains. First time I tried it it didn’t work lol (right at alpha).

I also see how AI makes my life better and I’m very grateful for everything that I could learn way faster through AI. Languages, systems, patterns etc..

My main experience is Claude Code and its suggested code changes..
