I feel sorry for anyone who isn’t experiencing the gains I’m experiencing. I can see why AI could suck in massive teams, or software with very messy and inconsistent architecture. As a 2 man developer team working on a mono repo with clear and simple architecture, consistent schema conventions, and heavy context available, it’s becoming ludicrous how fast we can pump out stable features. We must be 3-4x faster at this point. I had estimated that I would have to take on at least 2 or 3 more developers at X customers, now it seems at even double that quantity of customers we’ll be absolutely fine with just 2 developers. It’s been a tremendous boon for my small business, beyond any possible imagination. And then all the time I hear the claim that there’s no productivity gain to be had. I guess me and my customers are living some kind of mass delusion.

Just the other day there was data corruption discovered and a relatively urgent fix required. Just a few years ago I would have been working deep into the night to make sure everything was fixed for the morning. Within an hour Fable had it all wrapped up neatly and the fix deployed…

Do you people hear yourselves?

Are you claiming you’ve never been responsible for a bug that caused data corruption? Perhaps not, but it’s hardly a novel post-LLM bug. It’s regular stuff and obviously you know that.

As a 2 man developer team working on a mono repo with clear and simple architecture, no I have never caused urgent data corruption or seen it happen. That is more something that happens in codebases that are too big and complex to fully grasp. That it has already happened to you in this scenario does not bode well for the future stability of your codebase, in my opinion.

Urgent is an exaggeration I suppose. I have a high standard of customer service so to me it’s urgent, but the data was corrupted for 3 months before anyone noticed so it wasn’t critical.

Ok I guess we just suck, whatever. We and our customers are very happy.
