And these were easy. The first one literally took 15 seconds to "drop in." The second maybe ten. The third was near-instant. The only one that gave me any trouble was the continuous function one like an egg crate, with no sharp edges, just dropping down and up. That took maybe twenty seconds, and once I recognized what I was looking for, it was easy.
So has the technique changed/improved? Or has my brain changed?
A debugger gives you insight into the context of a particular code entity - expression, function, whatever.
Seems silly to be dogmatic about this. Both techniques are useful!
Thanks for your continued work on it!
I think it's made me 3 -> 5x more valuable.
Now, maybe it's done the same for other people as well, but I think my co-efficient was high, and I continue to insist that I've never worked anywhere that had enough resource focused on software development. The demand has always massively exceeded the organisations ability to fund supply.
And, as many have noted lower costs can also boost demand.
Finally, off shore devs are on a longer cycle time for many reasons. If cost onshore are reduced then that cycle time will crush offshore competitive advantage. I don't see any prospect of me getting work from India or Indonesia, but I do see AI as a driver that will reduce work leaving the UK for other places.
I was about to try opencode after using claude code for quite a while.
I think understand the fundamental difference in how they work (acp against existing agentic loops with toad vs a single agentic loop for all models with opencode) but I’m curious why we might want toad over something like opencode, which lets me use any model under the sun.
I suppose toad gets to use the highly specialized agentic loops for each cli. And has a nicer (? opencode is pretty slick from my brief usage…).
Curious to hear about why you chose to built this way and what advantages you see.
