  • Does anyone know what they are doing with context data send to their system? Could only find that the saas version had some audit, but didn’t know that term.

    It sounds interesting enough to try it in day to day work, but we can’t use most AI tools so far as it violates our company rules when we send parts of the code base as context.

    Really need to speak to our lawyer again about this…











  • It’s the same way for me. I don’t know if my work is this trivial or I’m just “good enough” at it, but it takes me much longer to prompt the chat to get what I want than it takes me to just write it myself.

    I honestly kinda feel like I’m using this ai stuff wrong, but outside of generating some basic unit tests and a little better auto complete it feels kinda useless in my day to day work.









  • Thanks for your answer.

    It’s a 30 year old swiss army knife, and it shows.

    There is a lot of improvementsn happening in the Java space , so that might change over the next years.

    It’s better by every metric and it’s a lot easier to manage your infrastructure (just a single binary file with no file or environmental dependencies; it doesn’t get any more straightforward than that.)

    With these new native builds you also get a single binary file as far as I know ( I’m still kinda new to Java) and much better startup times. So today Java might perform a little better in this comparison.

    But I take it as a good chance for getting a chance to introduce go as a language.


  • Mostly intellij ultimate, and sometimes VSCode as jetbrains Vue Support is not as good as the official plugin for VSCode.

    It’s really weird they don’t want to show type errors inside the template, but whatever.

    Other than that, I try to integrate AI assistants into my workflow. Currently trying out Cody, which works good so far, but I think without the sourcegraph integration it can’t show it’s full potential. But 50k$ seems a little expensive for my company haha


  • Probably typescript, it makes me rather productive and nowadays you can use it for pretty much anything. Even if it’s more often than not the optimal solution, it gets the job done

    Other than that I’m interested in checking out go and rust, but unfortunately family life + trying to bootstrap isn’t giving me much time outside my day job to toy with those.
