After more than 3 decades in computing I'm finally using a Mac for the first time and... you people are nuts. What you call "fullscreen" and "window management" is horrible and insane. Give me sane tiling wm any day over this stuff.

An agent writes the code now. Do you still need an IDE?
You do if you want to understand and verify what the agent did.
🎥 In our new video, we talk about the role of an IDE now that humans aren't the only ones working on the code. youtu.be/AHFGMkzrfwM
I begin to notice that human readable text doesn't nearly compose as good as code when merging conflicting text files.
Maybe we should use this code thing to instruct computers instead of English...
I remember excessive "prettifier" configs when doing TypeScript work. So I understand that the idea of "just add linting rules" to lock down a codebase sounds straight forward. Unfortunately, I don't think other languages have the same linting support as JS and TypeScript.

So, it looks like @intellijidea makes silicon developers more efficient too!

So, we apparently "just" need to make it impossible to write "bad" code in our codebases and suddenly AI agents will produce only "good" code. Why has nobody thought about this in the pre-AI era? It's so obvious, isn't it?
If by now everyone has proudly uninstalled their IDEs etc., why is the "developer mac book" still a thing? Just to show off at the local Starbucks?

Hey @Devoxx, I know you have a lot of great options, but why not stop by the @jetbrains booth for some demos... #Devoxx #IntelliJIDEA @intellijidea

5.6 Sol was my daily driver. There was no task it couldn't solve at reasonable budget usage. Then they nerved it and eventually gave us 6 Sol which doesn't compete at all. Somehow now a 100$ OpenAI sub feels less usable than a 20$ Claude sub.

NeoVim + IntelliJ IDEA backend for Java & Kotlin.
Very experimental and rough around the edges, but already a lot of fun! 🔥
Who wants to give it a try?

Today we introduce JetBrains Air - the product system for software development orgs in the age of agents.
Built for developers, team leads & engineering directors.
Open and flexible: steer and control almost any LLM & harness.

Not sure if it was a bug but recently codex started to display the internal model monologue instead of its "working..." banner for me. It's rather eye-opening what those text generation models go through to simulate intelligence.
I wonder how much or idea of model capability is just "a feeling" in our brains. GPT Sol let me down yesterday with some bad outputs and now I suddenly "feel" that Opus 5 would be way smarter.
Huh, codex CLI now has "queued questions"? Never noticed this before. Rather neat that the agent can stay busy and at the same time do a "here's a related question for you" prompt.
