Description
KBall and Nick dive into the chaotic world of AI-powered coding! They swap stories about how tools like Cursor and Neovim are completely changing their day-to-day work life and making them question what it even means to be a developer in 2025.
Between sharing their favorite productivity hacks and window management tricks, they get real about the excitement and anxiety of watching AI transform coding from a craft into something entirely new where developers might spend more time directing AI than writing code themselves.
Neither holds back on the exhausting parts either – like the mental drain of non-deterministic AI responses and the never-ending tech learning curve that has them constantly balancing new tools against trusted skills. It's like eavesdropping on a coffee break conversation between two friends who are both thrilled and terrified about their coding future.
Recorded on March 26th, 2025.
