I use AI to look at my git diffs before I push them up. I use a local LLM and specifically instruct it to look for typos, left over debug prints, or stupid logic.
It’s caught quite a few stupid things that I’m apparently blind to and my coworker appreciates it.
That’s not to say I’d sit back and let it write whole features, pushing it right to master after a short skim… Like someone else I know has started doing. But it can absolutely have a useful purpose.
When I was first learning how to code I was working on some beginner project and couldn’t figure it out. I asked a friend who knew a few things what I was doing wrong and he hopped on my computer, fixed the code then opened it in vim and told me my project wasn’t working because of whatever text editor I was using (I think sublime). So for like a year I hardly learned how to code but I got pretty dang good with vim.
Holy shit I’ve never heard of this but that’s awesome. I would love to see that nowadays
I haven’t smoked in 4 year, still every single day something happens and think about how much I want one. I’ve started chewing nicotine gum to help with the urges after quoting vaping, but now I’m just addicted to expensive gum.
