I'm surprised to see this surfacing now. I just wanted to clarify, since apparently the post doesn't do a good job at it, that what I discussed there is not a methodology I advocate for. The point of the post was: ok, since there are organizations mandating to maximize speed by reducing time spent on typing code (or even mandating to maximize agents usage), is there a way we can meet that requirement while still preserving the rigor somewhere else?

This was a follow up to a previous article[1] and the pair tried to express what I still think today (using AI daily at work): every time I use AI for coding, to some capacity I'm sacrificing system understanding and stability in favor of programming speed. This is not necessarily always a bad tradeoff, but I think it's important to constantly remind ourselves we are making it.

Then after a couple of years I rewrote my config line by line looking at what prelude did and keeping only what I needed.

I’m happy with result, but this was 7 years ago so there may be better options than prelude to do something similar today.
