Now, imagine a scenario of a typical SWE in todays or maybe not-so-distant future: the agents build your software, you simply a gate-keeper/prompt engineer, all tests pass, you're now doing a production deployment at 12am and something happens but your agents are down. At that point, what do you do if you haven't build or even deployed the system? You're like a L1 support at this point, pretty useless and clueless when it comes to fully understanding and supporting the application .
If you sucked before using AI you are going to suck with AI. The compounded problem there is that you won't see just how bad you suck at what you do, because AI will obscure your perspective through its output, like an echo chamber of stupid. You are just going to suck much faster and feel better about it. Think of it as steroids for Dunning-Kruger.
This.
^^T ?? obj.[:member:] ?? What is this craziness? No way this is the best we could come up with. I'm actually thinking C++ may be going too far (and this is as someone who thinks template metaprogramming is "fine").
Never before has that quote "inside C++ is a smaller, better language trying to get out" been more applicable.
The good news: we shipped our differential renderer to everyone today. We rewrote our rendering system from scratch[1] and only ~1/3 of sessions see at least a flicker. Very, very few sessions see flickers in rapid succession which was so annoying before. Those numbers will keep dropping as people update.
We've also been working upstream to add synchronized output / DEC mode 2026 support to environments where CC runs and have had patches accepted to VSCode's terminal[2] and tmux[3]. Synchronized output totally eliminates flickering. As always, I recommend using Ghostty which has 2026 support and zero flicker.
Happy to answer questions!

Does anyone else feel vim clumsy like the author? I'm trying to understand how one could accidentally lowercase a whole buffer, or trigger scary messages or open unrecognized menus. Not condescending, just curious. I find the q: thing relatable, but not the rest.
> lowercase a whole buffer,
Happens a lot to me actually!
That and accidentally incrementing a numeric value haha..
