How to use ChatGPT to write code - and my top trick for debugging what it generates

zdnet.com David Gewirtz 2026-03-15 02:59:00

photo_Pawel/Getty Images One of the more intriguing discoveries about ChatGPT is that it can write pretty good code. I first tested this out in 2023 when I asked it to write a WordPress plugin my wife could use on her website. ChatGPT did a fine job, but it was a simple project.

Becoming an AI-Native Engineer

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2026-03-15 05:55:11

Posted on June 10, 2025 I’m confident I’m not alone in saying I’ve spent a lot of time over the past couple of years thinking about AI as an engineer / developer and what it means for our field and for our careers. For a long time, software engineering felt like a safe bet. After all, how could we be automated away when we’re the ones writing the automation? Or so we thought. Like many, I’ve run the full gamut of emotions on the topic: excitement, uncertainty, fear, frustration, more excitemen

First PS3 emulator hits the Play Store, goes open-source (kind of)

androidauthority.com Unknown 2026-03-16 11:36:51

Nick Fernandez / Android Authority TL;DR PS3 emulator aPS3e is now available on the Google Play Store. From the mysterious Chinese developer aenu, it’s based on the RPCS3 source code. The project now proclaims to be open-source, but may not be meeting requirements. It’s been a few months since the first PS3 emulator launched on Android, and what a busy few months it’s been. The sudden appearance (and disappearance) of aPS3e brought forth a renewed interest in PS3 emulation on Android, with o

Agentic Coding Recommendations

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2026-03-16 11:22:49

Agentic Coding Recommendations There is currently an explosion of people sharing their experiences with agentic coding. After my last two posts on the topic, I received quite a few questions about my own practices. So, here goes nothing. Preface For all intents and purposes, here's what I do: I predominently use Claude Code with the cheaper Max subscription for $100 a month . That works well for several reasons: I exclusively use the cheaper Sonnet model. It's perfectly adequate for my needs,

Vibe Coding Is Coming for Engineering Jobs

wired.com Will Knight 2026-03-16 11:30:00

On a 5K screen in Kirkland, Washington, four terminals blur with activity as artificial intelligence generates thousands of lines of code. Steve Yegge, a veteran software engineer who previously worked at Google and AWS, sits back to watch. “This one is running some tests, that one is coming up with a plan. I am now coding on four different projects at once, although really I’m just burning tokens,” Yegge says, referring to the cost of generating chunks of text with a large language model (LLM)

Forward-looking: IBM has outlined a plan to build the world's first large-scale, fault-tolerant quantum computer. Dubbed Quantum Starling, the machine is expected to deliver 20,000 times the compute of modern quantum computers at full capacity. The machine will be housed at a new IBM Quantum Data Center in Poughkeepsie, New York, and is on track to be operational by 2029. The platform will feature 200 logical qubits capable of running 100 million quantum operations. A logical qubit is defined a

TL;DR Google has officially released the Android 16 source code, allowing developers to build their own versions of the operating system. Major smartphone manufacturers like Samsung have already had prerelease access, though, which allows them to expedite their Android 16 updates, with some planning rollouts as early as this summer. The full Android 16 source code is being uploaded today to AOSP, a full three months earlier than when Android 15’s source code was released. Alongside the update

Last Monday, towards the end of the WWDC25 keynote, Craig Federighi said that Apple had “expanded” its vision for Swift Assist, and it would now allow developers to bring their Large Language Model of choice directly to Xcode. Now, we know more about how this is going to work. What is Swift Assist? This was a feature that Apple announced during last year’s WWDC, but hadn’t released until now, on Xcode 26 beta. Initially, as explained by Apple, it was going to serve as: “a companion for all o

Report: AI coding assistants aren’t a panacea

techcrunch.com Kyle Wiggers 2025-11-09 14:11:09

In Brief As they gain in popularity, AI coding assistants such as GitHub Copilot may appear to be boosting productivity. But in reality, they could be causing overall code quality to decline. That’s the top-line finding from a new report released by software engineering platform GitClear, which analyzed 211 million code lines from 2020 to 2024. According to GitClear’s analysis, there was a remarkable decline in code reuse last year — a potential cause for concern, given that code reuse is a co

Brace yourself: The era of 'citizen developers' creating apps is here, thanks to AI

ZDNET Generative AI (Gen AI) has eliminated much of the grunt work of building applications for professional software developers. Now, the question is: can citizen developers also benefit from this new paradigm in code creation? Some experts certainly think so. Over the coming year, citizen developers will deliver 30% of Gen AI-infused automation apps, predicted Craig Le Clair, principal analyst with Forrester.
