Today, I found out that my company is moving the SDLC 100% to AI. Humans will no longer read or write code. We are also building out an AI code pipeline that removes engineers from the loop entirely. Which I think will eventually culminate in layoffs.

I think my company is on the bleeding edge, but what are you all seeing at your jobs?

Crosspost from /r/HTML

Last night, right before drifting into sleep, I got some crazy idea for some offline use case for HTML/CSS... But I can't remember exactly the idea that I had in mind.

It had something to do with photos or maps? I guess it was some "interactive" html/css based interface or mindmap kind of thing, about all the variety of stuff I have on my computer. For example, if I'm writing something, this file is its own separate entity. A file in "my documents", with no relation to any other file.

How about combining all of these files into this freeform "interface" by making an offline website that links into physical locations on my PC? I could organize my thoughts, my screenshots, my writings, my photos, my videos, my source materials, everything into a one personal use "platform" designed from the ground up to suit my workflow, that I could always expand.

Files would not be separate instances hidden in the files, but rather a part of a bigger system. Their links could be highlighted, they could have visual cues to direct my attention, they could have thumbnails or explanatory notes, they could be inbedded videos.

Has anyone ever done anything like this?

There are times when I basically have nothing to do for 10 or 15 minutes while my agent chugs away. I often find myself reading Twitter or Reddit during these times which doesn't seem like a good use of my time. I don't have a ton of tasks in my backlog, so nothing really to work on there either. I'm looking for more productive things to do during that time. Thoughts?

I noticed Zak Kohler's post about a new web framework Roux in the Roc zulip. It looks really fast in his benchmarks compared to Go and Rust.

How is that possible? I'm guessing he is using some tricks with io_uring and an LLVM optimised build.

Hey web devs, has anyone actually tracked the real viewport resolution of their users (with js)? I'm trying to figure out how many people don't maximize their browser and just keep it in a resized window. LLMs claim that 75% of people don't use maximized windows, but I seriously doubt that's accurate.

P.S. I'm not talking about screen resolution, I mean strictly the viewport size.

After Adobe programs that took years were completely designed in just a few weeks using AI, can we truly say that AI has started to surpass programmers themselves?

Before I could even see the dashboard, it asked for my company size, industry, role, team size, annual revenue, and what I hoped to achieve in the next 12 months.

Then it asked me to book a demo.

A demo. For a product I was already logged into.

Somewhere there's probably a product team celebrating their new onboarding flow because completion rates went up by 3%.

Meanwhile, I still have no idea what the product actually does.

At this point, just ask for my blood type and get it over with.

Looking for a forum with bulletin board style UI. Not the newer all in one platforms, but simple, list format forums. Think PhpBB or SMF. I’m trying to find a newer software in this style, because all the ones I’ve found use PHP, which is quite dated. Is there a modern forum software like this that I can self host?
