<p>How about putting the brakes on LLMs and prioritizing other types of AI.<p>When I think of AI, my mind goes towards automated Metro trains that do a great job of driving on fixed routes. On the other hand, it's obvious that the train can't do something like generate dinner recipies.</p>

<p>I agree with the headline, but I don't think LLMs are a reliable way of optimizing software.<p>First of all, coding speed is not the main bottleneck. I've been working on my own JavaScript framework. Most of my work is talking to people about challenges they have with web development, doing research on existing tools, and thinking about features to add.<p>Coding more slowly without LLM usage is a benefit because it helps me understand every line of code. The slower pace also helps me think about making things intuitive and reflect on my experiences with React.<p>While my framework is outperforming React, that isn't particularly impressive. On the other hand, it demonstrates how ignoring LLMs improves quality. Also, my monthly token spend is $0.</p>

<p>The article makes a great point.<p>Frankly, I think we should move to have harnesses do 100% of the work. In my view, the key is the fact that harnesses are deterministic tools created with a clear sense of intention.</p>

<p>I use web components with a render function to generate HTML and templates to provide fine-grained reactivity. Targeted re-rendering of items with relevant state changes makes performance significantly faster and also makes forms easier to write.<p>Here is an example of a template used to render a list of events.<p>const EventItem = () => {<p><pre><code>  EventItem.eventTime = (eventData) =>{
    if(eventData.isRecurring){
     return `${eventData.dayOfWeek}s at ${eventData.nextEventTime}`;
    }
    return `${eventData.nextEventDate} at ${eventData.nextEventTime}`
  }

  EventItem.url = (eventData) => {
    return `/html/groups/event.html?id=${eventData.eventId}&groupId=${eventData.groupId}`
  }

  EventItem.location = (eventData)=>{
    return  `${convertLocationDataForDisplay(eventData.eventLocation)}`
  }
    
  return `
    <li>
      <a 
        class="btn secondary"
        {{href=url}}
        {{eventName}}
       >
       </a>
       <div 
         class="event-time" 
         {{eventTime}}
       >
       </div>
       <div
         class="event-location"
         {{location}} 
       >
       </div> 
      </li>
   `;
 }

 BaseDynamicComponent.defineTemplate(EventItem,"EventItem");
</code></pre>
This is how the template is used in a component.<p><pre><code>  <ul
    data-array=data
    data-template-name=EventItem  
  ></ul></code></pre></p>

<p>This reminds me of watching JIRA go downhill over 10 years as it incorporated new technnology.<p>I used to be a scrum master who helped manage the team JIRA ticket board. When running into the inevitable problem during a meeting, I would sarcastically make a comment about "JIRA's monthly downgrade". By the time I stopped using JIRA in early 2025, it had become noticeably slower and had a bunch of UI clutter that made it difficult to do basic tasks.<p>I checked the homepage for Atlassian, which owns JIRA, and it has a headline saying: "Unleash your teams and their agents"</p>
