I can talk about both, and I am inclined to use the LLMs version (as long I write NON-SKIPPED tests).

This didn't make me faster in the short term, but I'm thinking about how it'll make the total process of landing this change faster.

I wish I was streaming so I could have chatted about this live!

in both its suggestion AND mine.

Then things started to click! I noticed the subtle changes to the code and then I thought about what a reviewer of my PR might think seeing the changes. Which could I confidently discuss with a human? Well, after going through the steps of actually investigating

than I thought for my approach and I didn't agree. So I started a conversation with the LLM to get to the bottom of why my approach wasn't better. (This isn't a me vs LLM thing)

The explanations it gave were good, but I couldn't visualize the difference. So I asked it to layout the code changes

I've been thinking a lot about meaningful and thoughtful ways to leverage AI in my own engineering work. Today I actually had a chance to put it to the test.

I wanted to add some optional properties to an interface and asked the LLM what it thought I should do. It suggested a different outcome

I had a chat with @nerdy.dev about his somewhat recent job hunt, where he talked a lot about the misalignment between the technical interviews and the roles they were looking to fill... and how even if they tried to fix the interviews, it didn't seem to help 😅

Yes! This tool we made is for the people! Configure it for your framework, your model. We want to help folks generate great web code 🚀

There are benefits to using the tool for frontend developers, even if Angular isn't your framework of choice, such as accessibility testing and a security scan.

This is going to be so flipping fun. The Angular team is doing a very different and very cool kind of developer update!

Doing better interviews in Spanish is top of my list for 2026!

Yeah, we'll get there. It's just been a tough week, tough month, etc.

We probably just need a family vacation or something

We are not that far a part! I've been having lots of health struggles and set backs, so as long as you keep going you'll definitely get there before I reach 100 at this point!

Also, I hope you feel better, Andrew!
