Meet Deebo: The AI Debugging Partner Revolutionizing Software Development
In the evolving landscape of software development, Deebo emerges as a powerful autonomous debugging system, designed to work alongside AI coding agents. By running parallel experiments and delivering ...
Interesting thought: Senior developers just got more valuable as the industry gets flooded with junior vibe coders that do not know how to build real-world maintainable software and/or don’t understand to fix it when it’s broken.
My Laravel PR was shot down, but I may give it a chance later in the year to use Property Hooks as attribute cast.
Why? I blindly guess that using Property Hooks are less computationally costly but also IDE friendly.
The Art of Crafting Perfect Pull Requests in Software Development
In the world of software development, the pull request (PR) is a critical component that can make or break a project's success. Understanding the anatomy of a perfect pull request not only enhances co...

"[T]hose claiming we're mere months away from AI agents replacing most programmers should adjust their expectations because models aren't good enough at the debugging part, and debugging occupies most of a developer's time. That's the suggestion of Microsoft Research, which built a new tool called debug-gym to test and improve how AI models can debug software.
Debug-gym (available on GitHub and detailed in a blog post) is an environment that allows AI models to try and debug any existing code repository with access to debugging tools that aren't historically part of the process for these models. Microsoft found that without this approach, models are quite notably bad at debugging tasks. With the approach, they're better but still a far cry from what an experienced human developer can do.
(...)
This approach is much more successful than relying on the models as they're usually used, but when your best case is a 48.4 percent success rate, you're not ready for primetime. The limitations are likely because the models don't fully understand how to best use the tools, and because their current training data is not tailored to this use case."
Learning Rust and it feels like it has the most hardworking compiler out there out of all other languages.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but "has issues" is NOT a problem description, and you deserve to have your bug report disregarded and summarily closed.

Thinking about a problem and not doing anything about it is just procrastination...
Doing something without thought is just being busy... 
Thinking something through and taking action is where the magic happens.

Are you aware of your daily energy levels?
Are you tired first thing and brighten up in the afternoon?
Or do you battle against that after-lunch slump?
I used to feel tired for 1-2 hours in the morning…
I’d struggle to focus and be grumpy...
I'd pick up, be productive, go for lunch and then I’d be flagging again…

Let's see what the PHP gods say about that "bug"
PHP property hooks are great until they are not.
It fathoms me how this big oversight got past stable.
We have a new post up on the BRIC newsletter about how we're using tools like Docker Desktop to solve some problems specific to science: sharing your work with other researchers to replicate, and navigating getting the software running in the first place when each institution is different.
I am not dogmatic about most things in #SoftwareDevelopment but for commit messages, https://cbea.ms/git-commit/ is my Holy Bible.
Why are developers obsessed with putting ticket IDs in the subject line (first line) of a commit message?
Things like:
"[FCK-123] Make some change"
Or like:
"Make another change (#123)"
In what use cases is this superior to keeping them at the very bottom of the commit message? And once they are there, why not have a full link to the issue tracker?
Like:
"Make some change
