Good heavens! My acronymical notes on Microsoft's product strategy are two revisions out of date!

Navi is good for generating personal cheatsheets:

But for Git, I can't recommend lazygit enough. It's an incredible piece of software:

Every goddamn time with this type of dogshit advice.

Perfect is the enemy of good.

Don't just rawdog a coding agent because a perfectly viable solution (containers) takes an hour or two of work to set up.

There's a world of difference between "it can scan your network" and "I just uploaded my private SSH keys to the cloud".

> Don't just rawdog a coding agent because a perfectly viable solution (containers) takes an hour or two of work to set up.

Setting up a separate unprivileged Linux user account takes all of like a minute. Assuming that the $HOME for your daily-driver account isn't world-readable, [0] that gets you the majority of the isolation that containerization provides and doesn't expose you to any bugs in the containerization management daemon (or the containerization code, itself) that may still be present even after all these years.

These things are usually TUIs or CLIs, so you don't need to bother with giving them xauth access or whatever the Wayland equivalents for that are.

[0] If it is, you might consider fixing that immediately.

The main Claude Code GitHub repo even has a Devcontainer config:

https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code

It's a great starting point, and can be customized as needed. With the devcontainer CLI, you can even use it from a terminal, no GUI/IDE required.

Is there a guide on getting it working with a devcontainer on the command line?

That is both amazing and terrifying.

Oh nice, I just wrote pretty much the same comment above yours.

Personal opinions follow:

Claude Opus at 150K context starts getting dumber and dumber.

Claude Opus at 200K+ is mentally retarded. Abandon hope and start wrapping up the session.

> does this work?

Absolutely. If you loaded this into an agentic coding harness with a decent model, I can practically guarantee it would be able to help you figure out what's going on.

> there is no more need for writing high level docs?

Absolutely not. That would be like exploring a cave without a flashlight, knowing that you could just feel your way around in the dark instead.

Code is not always self-documenting, and can often tell you how it was written, but not why.

My non-coder but technically savvy boss has been doing this lately to great success. It's nice because I spend less time on it since the model has taken my place for the most part.

> since the model has taken my place for the most part

Hah, you realize the same thing is going on in your boss's head right? The pie chart of Things-I-Need-stronglikedan-For just shrank tiny bit...

my last employer was using ai to rank developers on most impactful code their prs are shipping.

The graveyard of LLM-generated comments from new accounts on the bottom of every thread supports your hypothesis.

Perhaps you would care to propose an alternative?

My favorite would be llm runtime.
