AI ruins motivation to develop myself as a software engineerHi, guys!I'm a software engineer in about 5 years. I still like programming. This kind of programming when you just sit down in front of your computer and write code in an editor. I like Emacs and use it for all types of my development. But working in an enterprise company upsets me.I collected a few points that frustrates me.AI changed trade offs and my coworkers started producing insane amount of code and almost everything was AI generated. It is nice when people perform more but we've got a situation when one guy generates a lot of code and wins a few days of work but another guy spends a few day to read all of this. For me it feels like shifted productivity. Someone get, someone lose.Documentations are fully generated by AI. A month ago I needed to review coworker's feature doc. and I was destroyed by this text. English is not our mother tongue but we have to write docs in English that is totally fine. But this text was absolute unreadable. There were a lot of unknown, unexplained terms that we invented by AI. Amount of text was insane. Honestly, I tried to read it in two days until I gave up and feed all this text into AI assistant to prepare short description.Newly hired developers are silent. In my development experience it is like a nonsense. When you dive into a project your have to have questions about something, like domain, stack, some decisions. But now there is not question. AI allows you instantly write a code that makes no sense but disguised as good and reasonable.AI tools scary and annoy me. When I work, I like to exactly understand what happens in my computer in the current time. But now I see how full access delegation of the computer to an AI Agent became an industry standard. And when you anyway decide to try something then it is outdated in a month and you need install and learn smt new.And all this points ruin my motivation because I do not see signs that guys who understand (or tries to understand) what's happening in program is relevant in a market. I see how managers push us to install all this stuff blindly and just give x10 productivity, somehow.Does anyone have something like that? How do you deal with it?redd.it/1vhbztj@r_emacs

Magit Ricing?preview.redd.it/t1owu3yvkmjh1.png?width=9… really starting to like Magit from a functionality standpoint, but I hate to say it—it’s ugly. It’s probably the better choice for me practically, especially since I’m already using Emacs, but I really like the way Lazygit looks and feels.What I especially like about Lazygit is the panel-based layout. Files, branches, commits, diffs, etc. are visually separated into their own areas, which makes the interface feel much cleaner and easier to scan than having everything in one continuous buffer.Has anyone riced or customized Magit to get closer to that kind of look? I’m not necessarily trying to recreate Lazygit exactly, but I’d love stronger visual separation between sections and more of that clean, organized panel/dashboard feel.redd.it/1vphmxv@r_emacs
A Tour of Magit's Status InterfaceI just wrote a post about Magit's status screen, focusing on why it's powerful rather than just saying it is, I've always found the "why" gets asserted more than explained. It's written to be approachable for non-Emacs folks. Planning follow-ups on staging/committing and cherry-pick/rebase.For those who have been using Git CLI, what workflow did Magit make so painless you now take it for granted?heiwiper.com/posts/magit-status-tour/http…
Has anyone gotten org-display-remote-inline-images to work ?Found a post that says org-display-remote-inline-images only functional for TRAMP paths. Is this accurate ? I tried both 'cache and 'download options still getting "No images to display inline" Tried both with and without double brackets. (Local images work fine)emacs: 30.2 org mode : 9.7.11redd.it/1vpcccc@r_emacs

Capture dotfiles using org-captureSince I discovered org mode, I always was balancing between using symlinks and org babel tangle to manage my configuration. Now I'm in point that work related items are org babel managed and system level config is symlinked, because, often tools write back to their files. Another reason why I did not go full on babel was that I don't like workflow:1. found file that requires backup2. copy file3. paste in to org mode4. fill all details5. tangle.But yesterday I was visited by GNU spirit and she gave mi this org-capture template that reduces adding new file to backup to C-c k (my capture prefix) b (backup) and then tangle that file to original place: * [[%(project-root (project-current))]] [[%(abbreviate-file-name (org-capture-get :original-file))][%(file-relative-name (org-capture-get :original-file) (project-root (project-current)))]] - repository :: [[%(project-root (project-current))]] - file :: [[%(abbreviate-file-name (org-capture-get :original-file))][%(file-relative-name (org-capture-get :original-file) (project-root (project-current)))]] #+header: :tangle %(abbreviate-file-name (org-capture-get :original-file)) #+begin_src %^{Language|shell|elixir|nix|python|elisp|fundamental|eshell|conf} %(with-temp-buffer (insert-file-contents (org-capture-get :original-file)) (buffer-string)) #+end_srcI cannot comprehend how simple it is and how I never realized I could do this. Two think I think would be nice in future: \- if only it can automatically group those captures by project, but thinking of creating project backup capture template and simply refile from capture buffer \- automatic detangle so I can get back changes written by tools to their files, but not all of them support comments and many of them don't patch but dump state to file, so probably unsolvable using build in tools, only by elisp scriptingI'm trying to avoid longer elisp scripting for now 😄 What do you think?redd.it/1vowo7f@r_emacs
