on Attention - That's a good way to see it, better than describing the actual activity, but describing the value of attention as a scarcity. \u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYou guys remember when XMLHttpRequest came out? There we thousands of libraries abstracting it, many were bad, some lived on - axios comes to mind. It's such a vital part of software and it took so long to get it down. Using it was tricky, there were many nuances you needed to know. \u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eNow the abstraction is just await fetch(). We had to get await, and a standard to get a simple abstraction that simplifies understanding it. \u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWith AI we seem to be going the other direction. Everyone is in a frenzy to build stuff, so we're building \"long tail\" software that aren't good under the hood. We are actually turning attention away from the more important nuances. \u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eI think we need to formalize AI development - like we do programming standards. It would be more fuzzy, but it needs better structure. MCP is a great example, but we need something similar for programming structures. \u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBefore we had design patterns to guide the fuzzy stuff, formal standards that guided abstractiosn and implementations. We need these built in, real AI frameworks that choose these and keep the AI in line. \u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eLike how you'd use package.json to describe your dependencies, we need a schema to describe AI development that is predictable. \u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eI believe that would allow us to automate most of the review - the implementation. We just need to focus on the - did it work (because the implementation is standardized it can be tested). \u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eI'm just rambling but right now it seems we're driving AI blindly most the time - or stuck in review. AI will produce more and more faster - we need to change how we build the structure that produces what's reviewed. \u003c/p\u003e\n\n","path":"/bucabay/comment/3b79o","username":"bucabay","name":"Bucabay","profile_image_90":"https://media2.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=90,height=90,fit=cover,gravity=auto,format=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Fuser%2Fprofile_image%2F4010551%2Fff81c40c-e957-4d68-bcc6-c6f8430f6c81.jpg"},{"comment_id":1566320,"user_id":15734,"published_timestamp":"2026-07-12T18:26:32Z","published_at_int":1783880792,"safe_processed_html":"\u003cp\u003eI'm seeing organizations doing random \"PR reviews\" during weekly standups.

They also coincided with the death of loved ones. But all of this heavy stuff led me to be happy now. \u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAnd that is, among other things, because I found mindfulness and the teachings of the likes of Jack Kornfield, Jon Kabat Zin and Andy Puddicombe (who is as close to an idol as I have). In their books and the app Headspace (which Andy cofounded), they taught me how to meditate and live in the here and now. Not for the here and now. In the here and now.\u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBecause while often the here and now is pretty peaceful for me nowadays, it's also sometimes stressful, difficult, or even downright ugly. Mindfulness and meditation have taught me how to fully inhabit each moment. And that when you do that, even when the moment is ugly you can deal with it far better than when you run away from the moment, as we so often do with all our digital distractions nowadays.\u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the big thing I learned: Happiness, contentment, joy - all of these things can never be experienced anywhere else than in the here and now. There is always a \"next thing\" in our line of work - always a next milestone, a next feature, a next project, a next stepping stone on the career ladder.\u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAnd so we run, and we run, and we run by the most important thing in life - taking the time to be where we are, and appreciate what we have in this moment, fully. \u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSo if I could tell my younger self anything, it is simply this: Focus on doing the best you can, for yourself and others, in the here and now. Because when it comes down to it, that is really all you can ever do. So focus on that and let everything else go.\u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBut this is easier said than done. It is a process, one that is never complete, but in this is its power: We can grow in being able to do this our whole lives. It is a process that is supported by things like breath work, yoga, meditation, Tai Chi, Qi Gong, among other things. \u003c/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAll we really ever know is that we are here now. To make the most of life, and live as best we can, all we must therefore ever do is this: Do our best right here and right now, and let everything else go. \u003c/p\u003e\n\n","path":"/andreas_mller_2fd27cf578/comment/3b1h0","username":"andreas_mller_2fd27cf578","name":"Andreas Müller","profile_image_90":"https://media2.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=90,height=90,fit=cover,gravity=auto,format=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Fuser%2Fprofile_image%2F3659777%2Fe84a3ff0-8531-4312-8c86-c85a5c413613.png"},{"comment_id":1564833,"user_id":3977468,"published_timestamp":"2026-07-11T05:57:46Z","published_at_int":1783749466,"safe_processed_html":"\u003cp\u003eThis really resonated with me, Hema. In tech, it's so easy to treat our personal energy like an endless IOU or assume we have infinite uptime.

it did the thing. it only turns into evidence when there's a check that would fail loudly if the claim were false. with no failing check behind it you don't have a log, you have a confident narrator,

that the check can't be skipped at 5pm on a friday. the pattern i keep coming back to in my own pipelines is pinning the inputs, letting the agent produce, then red-blocking on anything that drifts

Underneath the joke there's a real thing though: the reason the \"AI needs a clean codebase\" framing works where \"please write tests\" never did is that now there's a selfish payoff you can watch happen. The agent visibly does better on a well-structured repo, so the reward loop is tight instead of some virtuous someday-payoff for the next hire. Same practices, but tied to a result you see this week.
