AI Coding

But you lose the learning. The idea of a cybernetic system like, say, agile development, is that you try something, learn from it, and adjust accordingly. You remember what worked. You remember what didn’t. That’s learning.
Outsourcing execution to machines makes a lot of sense.
I’m not so sure it makes sense to outsource learning.
I think this is already becoming a real issue in many workplaces experimenting with agentic development.
When agents generate or modify code, we can test the output. We can verify that the bug is fixed or that the feature works. But the learning loop becomes blurry: how do humans actually understand why the fix works and how the system reached that solution?
In several cases on our side we ended up doing entire review sessions where we read through the agent session logs and the final code diff after deployment. Not just to confirm the bug was fixed, but to reconstruct the reasoning behind the fix.
That reconstruction step matters because it’s where human learning normally happens in software development.
If execution becomes automated but understanding disappears, we risk creating systems that work but that fewer and fewer people actually understand.
There is probably a real need for new tooling here: something that treats agentic development sessions as first-class artifacts. Not just code diffs, but structured traces explaining decisions, iterations, and why certain approaches were abandoned.
In other words: if AI handles more of the execution, we need better ways to preserve the feedback loop for humans.

PermalinkI think it doesn’t matter, the US administration cannot be seen loosing face against a corporation, in fact for Hegseth not loosing face is more important than security or anything else this administration is involved with, including killing innocent civilians .

PermalinkI played with Yunohost for years but for “Production” grad self-hosting I went the Cloudron path and have been happily self-hosting a good chunk of digital needs, including email for a few years now :)

Thoughts
In reply to: kevquirk.com/blog/will-they-inherit-our-blogs/ via Web
PermalinkI have been thinking about the same thing… but I have no idea how I’m going to pull this off… not that this blog/site of mine is of much interest but in some way it’s a memory (partial one) of my life. will it matter when I’ll be on my death bed? I’m not convinced but I like the idea of “keeping to exist” on the web after I’m gone.
