I’d like to see a study like this for young kids. Anecdotally, I ran through the woods until I went to college and stress about the urban life I’m providing for my kids

Seeing everything these days being about vibe coding, I feel a little old with my VIM setup and my LSP servers who I already thought were a nice productivity increase.
The problems I have with the stuff relating to MCP is that the tech around it is developing so fast that it's hard for outsiders to catch up with what the best working setup is, for example.
What would you do, for example, if you want to selfhost this?
- which models (qwen ai coder?)
- which api (with ollama? Bolt? Aider? Etc)
- how to integrate PRs with a local gitlab/gogs/forgejo instance? Do you need another MCP agent for git that does that?
- which hardware dependencies to run it?
I am currently trying to figure out how to implement a practical workflow for this. So far I'm using still a synchronous MCP agent setup where it basically runs on another machine in the network because I have a too unperformant laptop to work with.
But how would I get to the point of async MCP agents that can work on multiple things in my Go codebases in parallel? With the mentioned PR workflows so that I can modify/edit/rework before the merges?
The author makes a lot of claims and talks always about that their opponents in the argument are not talking about the same thing. But what exactly is the same thing, which is reproducible locally for everyone?
You should add Claude code to your setup and be amazed. Tmux with vim, Claude code and git work trees is amazing - now the choke point is… me.

Wow

I loved this article, thanks for writing it.
I attempted playing a few world cyber game US regional matches and I was always amazed how much faster everyone else was. Then I remember when they live streamed it from Korea and I saw how fast they played and I was blown away. From a strategy point of view, something so basic about the game that I missed was when a blog introduced me to some math for a protoss zealot power up that defeated a zergling in 2 hits rather than 3. That's when I realized this is a chess game and I got hooked.

Cash strapped? No worries, just pick a low wage country and send them to Singapore to work for a bit. Not exactly THAT cash strapped...
Not in today's high fuel costs world but those flights are very cheap, it be like going from LA to Vegas on Southwest. It be $100

Picking a career purely for profit and being good enough at it without passion to compete with the passionate people shows a calculated grit and intelligence that I think you might be passing on. You might be missing the person who can make the calculated decisions without emotional investment, the person who can give you hard truths as to the viability of the business, the person who can take their personal out of decisions and act.
Optimizing for money is a guaranteed flight risk for any employer. High attrition is something to avoid at smaller companies as it greatly effects morale
