It's been a year or two. Disagree or debate me all you want, but soon you'll realize and admit I was right.

Nah, I don't think we are at this point yet. AI without control just creates non usable products. We don't literally write the code but we still give direction and review output.

We just found the bottleneck moved to the reviewing part, and AI can help there too, we tried many AI reviewers and even mostly just add more noise and slop we found some that are quite good and even do not replace humans they take most of the consuming work out.

Once we get to the point code is not the problem, remember that we started coding because we wanted to create software that solved problems. What I mean by this is don't forget we are here to solve problems, not to write code.

Right about what? Your own irrelevance? Fine, I won't disagree. Your mind, your skills and your talents no longer matter to anyone. Not even to you, apparently.

I don't know why you're so proud of that, or why you think anyone would care.

I am really sorry if I upset you,I do not mean to be proud of that. I think we should accept that read/write code it is over now. People will not care how good my code is anymore. "I don't read code anymore" is for those who are still surprised when I say that.

Why should we read your fucking blog then

Agents write my code but I still read and make sure I understand it, like I would read the code written by a junior dev. If I don’t understand it, or if I don’t agree with the approach, I ask questions and those questions often lead to better code. More importantly, it helps ensure I remain “connected” with the codebase which in turn informs future requests and discussions with an agent.

Exactly. And there is architectural things missed by agents or just wrong. There is equally things I learn all the time from agents doing things, or things I have missed. Together we’re a better team.

Just curious what if your teammate gets 10x better every month and is now an expert in everything? My point is that agents will get much much better soon and we need to pivot. Also things like prompting are being automated.

One might wonder what value he's bringing to the business, then, but it's hard to parse out much information from three sentences.

I’m good at dealing with customers… what about that is hard to understand!

i was poking around your site and went here https://blog.duyet.net/2026/07/anyrouter/ and ran into an error: "Something went wrong! Minified React error #300; visit https://react.dev/errors/300 for the full message or use the non-minified dev environment for full errors and additional helpful warnings."

Perhaps you should read your code just a little bit?
