@jaidevd Hmm .. had tried out a year ago. Found out, I could write code faster than trying edit generated code (most of my time goes on trying to figure out what to write than actually writing things) Intend to dip my toes into coding AI again in a month or so.

Interesting. "When I apply my attention, I come up with solutions that reduce the surface area of the code. I tend to refactor so the change is easy, comprehensible, elegant. Working with the LLM felt like building channels for effluent. Somehow contain the slop."

People asked me why I cancelled. LLMs ruined my code. Once I prompt and the LLM starts spewing code, it sets the direction of my thoughts. And it rarely arrives at the elegant solution. Because verbosity is not a problem for the LLM, it provides verbose solutions. And in

@jaidevd So you like the fact LLMs give you a good amount of boilerplate that you can then trim down. Did I get you right?

Any thoughts? cio.com/article/354057… In my experience, AI helps writing new code. But is not helpful when adding changes to an existing codebase. At least not yet, and perhaps not very soon. But the observation AI increased bugs by 41% caught me surprised.

Swift is a language with good intentions at heart, seemingly designed by a committee

Have been doing a fair amount of Android programming lately. Will be learning Swift/iOS soon as well. My second ever Apple purchase after a 2005 iPod Mini

Correction: I meant KMP not KMM (few months ago jetbrains rechristened KMM as KMP)

I don't have much experience with KMM but will get there. For a month I'm planning to just learn iOS programming the native apple recommended way. Before then exploring KMM apps. If I had to bet at the moment, I think KMM will be a huge deal

I had learnt flutter for mobile development over a year ago. A couple of weeks ago when I started programming all over again I decided to give Kotlin a try. Especially given KMM (Kotlin Multiplatform) was near maturity. Here are some observations.
