People want to pay only $20/month for a coding agent but demand unlimited tokens. I see these complaints about @claudecode.bsky.social and others. With fists in the air, "I'm switching to blah!" What a silly take. The same people are probably willing to spend more than $20/week on coffee alone.

Many Linux UI-based (non-CLI) tools are completely unintuitive. Someone creates a tool to make it "easy" for non-technical users to use the CLI or to consolidate ps et al, and then they make it impossible to understand how to use them from past experience. 1/7
What will FPers do about Loop Engineering since loops are those nasty, imperative-procedural constructs that run on wretched von Neumann architecture? Could it be Monad Engineering? Engineering is an applied science, not mathematics. Agentic Monad? Recursive Agent? Agentic Recursion? Meh.
Thing is, if you're talking Core Domain, really talk Core Domain.

Have you noticed that coding agents know tables and like them even?
I've got a new portmanteau for you: alligarchy Get it?
Stating a position against coding agents and an argument to support it without a context is as misleading as AI hype.
Gemini's recommended agent use cases and framework: - Coding & Debugging - Lead Generation & Sales - IT & DevOps Use the ARR framework: Task must be Autonomous (operates independently); Recurring (happens regularly); and ***Reviewable*** (output can be clearly assessed).
Didn't you hear? Polsia *is* the CEO. Now, the board directs the vision, and Polsia does all the work. All the software people? They kick back until their severance goes poof. By then, the board has been fired, and the shareholders vote for the software people to save the company.

I have had 4 extra Chinese Simplified books, and I want to free up space. If you can prove that you can read this book, will benefit, promise not to sell it, and will pay for shipping and any VAT/tax, I will send you one of the books. (I will charge shipping costs only.) First come, first served.

vibe coded for 4 days. my codebase was a disaster. p.s. how could it take someone 6 months to figure that out?

I now use Kommunity rather than Meetup. If you haven't joined my group, you might want to do so now. I'll be offering some events in the next few days and weeks. kommunity.com/organizers/d... Upcoming event with more on the way: kommunity.com/organizers/d...
