### AI overview

This opinion argues that AI coding tools do not produce equal results because they can execute subtasks but cannot reliably determine all the context and decisions required to complete a larger task. The author proposes "due-diligence programming": humans must question AI, understand its designs, review its output, and reassess systems as they evolve. The article describes an independent Codex review plugin as a way to make that effort visible and encourage more rigorous review.

### Source excerpt

这一年多的时间以来，AI Coding 已经从一个新潮的编程方式变成了默认方式，每个人都用着近乎相似的模型，相似的设备，相似的 Agent，理论上所有人产出的代码水平也应该相似，但如果你在一线工作过，你会发现实际情况恰恰相反，大家的代码产出水平方差反而比以往更大。这是一个相当有意思的话题，但是我却发现在互联网上鲜有人讨论。

### AI overview

This opinion essay reflects on the author's simultaneous dislike of and reliance on AI. It argues that AI-assisted work can replace a sense of accomplishment with uncertainty and emptiness, while expressing anxiety about declining creative quality and an increasingly uncertain professional future.

### Source excerpt

最近在做一个思想实验，如果你面前有一个按钮，按下就可以让 AI 从世界上消失，你是否会按下。身边很多朋友的答案都是会毫不犹豫的按下，即便有一些人还是那种最拥抱 AI 的人。 拥抱 AI 和厌恶 AI 可以同时在一个人身上发生，我自己就是这样的人。我厌恶 AI，是因为对昨日世界的怀念，我拥抱 AI，是因为今日世界无法回退，我没有不拥抱的选择。

### AI overview

The author reflects on moving from manually writing code to relying heavily on AI Coding, arguing that AI can now generate large amounts of code with limited human review. The article presents the view that software engineers will increasingly manage AI agents, solve problems they cannot handle, and help organizations adapt their workflows to agent-based work.

### Source excerpt

说来惭愧，我已经好几个月没有完全手写代码了，甚至像是把某个变量改一个名字这种活我都宁愿输入更多字符告诉 AI 来做而不是自己直接改了，因为我知道，哪怕是变量重命名这种简单的活，AI 也能做的比我仔细，它会检查所有用到这个变量的代码、相关的注释以及单元测试，然后一并都修改了，而我自己其实历史上就犯过不少忘记修改关联地方的错误。

### AI overview

A personal reflection on Demystifying Disability by Emily Ladau, focusing on disability, ableism, accessibility, disability etiquette, and the distinction between person-first and identity-first language. The author also connects the book's discussion to their experience of identity changes after a concussion.

### Source excerpt

I finished reading Demystifying Disability by Emily Ladau last week. It's a fantastic book discussing disability, ableism, accessibility, disability etiquette, and many more things. I highly recommend buying and reading or listening to it! I have so many thoughts from reading the book, and I want to share some of them with you. And I know many more will come, as I often process new things over the course of a longer time. Person-First Language vs. Identity-First Language So, for those unfamiliar with the terms, person-first language (PFL) means using phrases where the person comes first. So, for example, people with disabilities. On the other hand, identity-first language (IFL) recognizes that disability is part of the person's identity, such as Autistic people. Emily Ladau writes about her experiences with these approaches: Truth to be told, I went kind of overboard with my IFL evangelism at first. I could not understand why anyone would prefer PFL and pushed against it whenever I had the chance. I could say I was the opposite. At some point, it was difficult for me to understand why someone would like to go with the identity-first approach. Okay, I knew the reasons, but I could say I did not truly understand it. But now I do, and even better because of reading Demystifying Disability. The book also got me thinking about why I've been feeling this way. For those of you who don't know, I had a concussion a few years back. I'm still recovering from it, and I know that things won't go back to what they were before that hit. I was 26 when that happened, so I had a pretty strong sense of who I was before that. One thing was that I had an extraordinary memory. I could recall details so well that people around me found it strange sometimes. And that was a big part of my identity. After the concussion, I realized I have problems with my memory, and I've had to come a long way to actually accept that this is my life now and I'm not the same person as I used to be back then.
