Almost 20 years of experience, mostly, but not limited to Java. I started from JDK 1.5 ;)
Certified GoLang, and Scala developer, even though I don't remember much. Working as contractor, mostly
"The best developers will not be the ones who let AI do everything.
They will be the ones who know what to delegate — and what to protect. "
This is really nice quote. AI is a tool, and the tools do good things in the proper hands ;)
To the list I will add the BMAD framework, which I use integrated in Claude Code. I really like the agent for brainstorming sessions. If I don't know what's the best way, if I am not really familiar with the available technologies and libraries, I use it for suggestions, ideas.
it has also other modules and agents for things that are out of my scope, like research, marketing, and last but not least development.
I am heavily relying on it for, both my side project (100% developed on it) , and the project at work.
Thanks a lot — and I really like how you framed it: tools do good things in the proper hands.
BMAD is a great addition. I haven’t gone deep enough with it yet, but from what you describe, it fits exactly into the direction I find most interesting: AI not just as a code generator, but as a structured collaborator.
The brainstorming use case especially makes sense to me. When you’re unsure about the best direction or exploring unfamiliar tech, an agent that helps compare options and surface ideas can be more valuable than jumping straight into implementation.
And that connects perfectly to the main point of the article: AI should support the thinking process, not replace ownership of the decision.
Really interesting that you’re using it both for a side project and at work — I’ll definitely take a closer look at BMAD. It may deserve a spot in a future update.
