>> I recently told all my engineers to delete their IDEs. PyCharm, VS Code, Cursor. All of them.

I’m all in on AI assisted development but this is ridiculous.

There’s so many self evident reasons to need an IDE as a developer.

Presumably the unidentified author is selling something that benefits from such a stance.

[andrewl]

Yes. And then after you throw all your tools away you should buy my software.

[andrewstuart]

I’d resign on the spot if my team lead told me to delete all IDEs and that coding is solved.

[dleslie]

Nah, quiet quit. Orchestrate the agents to the degree necessary to keep your job, and no more. Use the free time to read a book.

[fragmede]

If all coding is solved, what do they need you for? You'd be laid off before you could quit if that was the case.

[operatingthetan]

Exactly, if coding is solved, why do they have a team? I'm sure doing all their engineering through an openclaw instance is totally a good idea, right?

[maipen]

Exactly, our gen's gold rush.
