  • It really depends on the situation. Can I write maintainable code? Yes, to the extent that the average senior dev can.

    But that isn’t the same as being afforded the chance to write maintainable code. I’ve been part of teams where the timeline is so tight that technical debt is just a thing that builds up to be dealt with “later” and more stress is put on getting things done instead of keeping things maintainable.

    The fact of the matter is that humans can while LLMs currently can’t.

    On top of that, a human dev is going to be able to understand context a hell of a lot easier if they’ve previously worked on it, even if the code is less maintainable.









  • I’m curious what you think tricky is?

    For instance, 1Password requires your secret key for initial login/setup on a device along with the username and password. After initial login/setup the secret key is no longer required, but you still need the password to access.

    I’d call that a fair trade off. Someone would need to know my password and have unfettered access to my previously set up device to login, or they would need to know the secret key.

    The secret key is not stored by 1Password (the company). If you store it in 1Password and the last device is lost/broken/stolen then your account is essentially dead. You have no way to get back in.
