I was tasked to rewrite an Oracle Apex webapp. 70k lines of PL/SQL. I asked Claude Sonnet 4.6 to read it all and boil it down to markdown file with business requirements. Took about 15-20 minutes, and I got a 700 lines long markdown file to guide me during the rewrite. I've since had great joy using /grill-with-docs!

Haven't tried this, but I've recently become a big fan of Matt Pococks skills. Workflow: /grill-with-docs -> /to-prd -> /to-issue -> /tdd. That will interview relentlessy until there is a "shared understanding" using "ubiquitous language", then it will spec all requirements with user stories, create issues and implement them using tdd.

Software engineer here, since 2008. Will coding be relevant in the future? Not so sure. Maybe a little. Mostly for teaching? How about code? Absolutely! Everything is code! If we don't understand code, we're useless. Software engineering applies to code, just as mathematics applies to numbers.

I've been trying voxtype (using whisper models) lately, and to my surprise all my ums are filtered out. It's really good now actually!

> Yes it takes a bit of work but it isn’t that bad.

Agreed, it takes a few hours to set up everything. But just did it with Claude the other day, and I was up and running in no time! :-)

> if you feel that code is too complex

Now you're assuming a human is actually trying to understand the code. What a world we live in (sarcasm).

How cool is that! Feature request: Let the user select another language than English.

When was the last time you used Jenkins? I don't get the hate. Not only from you, but lots of people on the internet. What makes Jenkins stand out IMO is the community and the core maintainers, they are perhaps moving slow, but they are moving in the right directions. The interface looks really nice now, they've done a lot of ux improvements lately.
