I like this take by @kentbeck on how AI-assisted programming changes the balance of which skills are most important

From this interview with @gergelyorosz newsletter.pragmaticengineer.c

So you can think really big thoughts and the leverage of having those big thoughts has just suddenly expanded enormously. I had this tweet two years ago where I said "90% of my skills just went to zero dollars and 10% of my skills just went up 1000x". And this is exactly what I'm talking about - having a vision, being able to set milestones towards that vision, keeping track of a design to maintain or control the levels of complexity as you go forward. Those are hugely leveraged skills now compared to knowing where to put the amperands and the stars and the brackets in Rust.

@Synchro Then let's do that 😃 What would be the steps for the move?

@Synchro ;-)

For the pure IMAP part, the login is rather simple: `Axx AUTHENTICATE XOAUTH2 <base64 string in XOAUTH2 format>` ... So the XOAuth2Authenticator for my ImapStore would be a two line thing ;)

I'm not sure it's "our" responsibility to get the xoauth2 string token...?

I can add the XOAUTH2 Authenticator part later today.

Did I understand you correctly that you consider getting my imapstore project into the phpmailer org? Or just the docs?

@Synchro I'm intrigued ;-) I'm not sure I have time to write an oauth implementation right away ;-) The api documentation for it for ms365 looks annoying ;)

@Synchro I decided that the library you mentioned does too much for my taste and need. So I created a simple one myself over the weekend that only supports storing messages in IMAP folders - but in what I believe to be a clean way ;)

github.com/theseer/imapstore

I'll try to finish writing the tests, add CI as well as make a release soonish... First some more work needs to be done here.

But I'm curious: What do you think about it?

The reason you don't have time to write unit tests is because you didn't write unit tests.

"This again?" the dragon said. "It's been just a few centuries since the last time.'

"Please," the knight said.

"I asked you to make sure you had a way of getting rid of bad kings yourself, before you made any new ones."

"We didn't understand we made a king."

"You are such fools. Very well."

As someone who works in higher-ed and also has taught middle school and high school aged kids, my opinion is not that LLM use is exploding among students because they're lazy or stupid or anything else

it's because our educational system has prioritized a very transactional "do this bullshit, and you get the credentials you need to have a life" approach for

well

maybe forever, really

and no one should be surprised that adversarial approaches by teachers and administrators are being met with an adversarial approach by students

When men refer to themselves as "alpha males", I hear that in the context of software, where alpha versions are unstable, missing important features, filled with flaws, and not fit for the public.
