🔴 Trying Theo's AI T3 Code and Codex & Reacting to: I Was a 10x Engineer.. Now I’m Useless!
Chapters8
Host welcomes viewers, catches up, and sets an upbeat tone about returning to normal routines and the gym.
Nuno Maduro tests OpenAI Codex and the new T3 Code app live, comparing Codex, CodeEx, and Polycope, while reacting to the idea that being a 10x engineer is changing in an AI-driven world.
Summary
Nuno Maduro kicks off a long, high-energy live stream by revisiting Lakonu and diving straight into hands-on AI experimenting. He first tackles OpenAI Codex in tandem with Theo’s Code3 tool (3Code/Code3 Code) and then boldly explores T3 Code, a Mac-only desktop app that promises to streamline coding with AI agents. Throughout the session, he alternates between building a small project (a to-do app) and reacting to a viral clip about being a 10x engineer who suddenly feels useless, using his own stream as a testing ground for how AI can augment or derail the craft. He compares Codex, CodeEx, and Polycope, notes speed versus depth trade-offs, and shares real-life insights on how AI changes coding habits, collaboration, and the emotional stakes of software craftsmanship. The stream doubles as a product demo and a candid meditation on identity, skill diversification (gym, design thinking, architecture decisions), and the importance of guardrails, testing, and fundamentals in an AI-enabled workflow. He alternates between GitHub, Laravel starter kits, Inertia with React, and cloud tooling, offering practical tips (e.g., conventional commits, PHPStan, testing with Pest, and how to harness Cloud and CodeEx workflows) while staying honest about the current limits and learning curve of these tools. The overarching takeaway is that developers should expand their toolkit, not abandon craft, and invest in soft skills and solid fundamentals to stay relevant as AI accelerates software production. The session closes with a teaser about future content, a personal life update (his brother joining as a full-time producer), and an invitation to his audience to weigh in on streaming plans and sponsorship ideas.
Key Takeaways
- Codex, CodeEx, and Polycope each have distinct strengths; CodeEx offered more UI depth and project view, while Codex showed stronger end-to-end scaffolding in this session.
- CodeEx delivered a full to-do app with UI and browser-based tests, though users report it can feel slower than Code generation heavy workflows like Cloud Code in some scenarios.
- JetBrains PHPStorm AI-assisted commits surfaced as a practical time-saver, with built-in options to generate commit messages and pseudo-conventional commits.
- By testing AI-assisted coding side-by-side, Nuno highlights speed, reliability, and readability trade-offs, emphasizing the need for guardrails, tests, and explicit design choices.
- Developers should diversify skills beyond pure coding (architecture decisions, deployment, security, testing, UX) to stay resilient as AI tools scale up.
- Fundamentals still matter: understanding of testing, architecture, and design patterns remains essential even when AI accelerates code production.
- Open discussion of the emotional and career implications of AI—identity tied to craft, fear of obsolescence, and the importance of continuous learning and healthy routines (e.g., gym).
Who Is This For?
Essential viewing for Laravel and PHP developers curious about practical AI coding assistants (Codex, CodeEx, Polycope) and for engineers exploring how to maintain craft while integrating AI into daily workflows.

Beautiful PHP family. How everyone is feeling today? Welcome back to another live stream. Finally back home and just happy to be back to the office. How everyone is feeling today? Happy to see you all. Eden Mike, what's up? Elite Dev, thank you so much for the tier one subscription. 15 months in a row. Dude, you are absolutely awesome. And you are saying the following. What's up everyone? Hope everyone is doing good. I'm doing fantastic, dude. Just be ha just happy for to be back honestly. Back home, back to the regular schedule, back to the gym.
Everything is good stuff, man. John Sugar, what's up? Nice to see you all. Chris, what's up? Hi, Nuno family. What's up, dude? Happy Nuno Nation all over the place. Excited to see you all today. And today we have an exciting live stream. Okay, it will be absolutely dope. I hope you guys are ready because this one will be dope. What's happening with my mouse? Okay, my mouse is broken, chat, wait a little bit. Why is it broken though? What the [ __ ] Okay. Can he can you move? Okay, maybe it's good. It's not good though. Oh, here we go.
Here we go. Okay, we back. We back. We back. Dear bell, nice to see you, dude. How you doing, Sh? Today we are going to see a couple things. Okay, a couple of things. Okay, first of all, I want to try OpenAI codeex. Does any of you ever tried this model yet? I have been super into cloud code opens 4.6 and that's pretty much what I've been using for pretty much everything. So, today we're going to try that model. Codeex from OpenAI. I want to try it for the very first time and to do that we are we are going to actually use this new tool called it 33 code.
Okay. So recently I don't know if you have seen it but this dude call it Theo have released this new tool called it 33 code which allows you to in theory open multiple agents to work on this project and I think this will be fantastic. So we are going to try open um 33 code open AI codeex. So that will be awesome. That would be awesome hopefully. And on top of it, we are going to react to this video which says the following. I was a 10x engineering now I'm useless. You know, we have been seeing very cases where various cases where people are, you know, they cable too much their identity to the to their craft.
And once they can no longer do that craft, they just feel a little bit lost. And I want to react to this video because I have heard, you know, contains good content. I'm happy to do that. John Sugar is saying the following. Make Taylor release Lavel 13 already. I don't think it's happening. I don't think it's today though. Do you guys know if they if Taylor announced the date? I don't even know. Thiago is saying the following. Welcome back, mate. Looking forward for the stream. Me, too, man. Happy to be here today. He's also saying the following.
Quick one. Nuno. Pen PHP is still broken and there's a pull request open with a few fixes about 3 weeks ago. All right, I will double check. Why is it broken though? Like I haven't touched it. In theory, it shouldn't, you know, just be broken. John Sugar is saying the following. I have recently started using codeex and finding it better than cloud. Okay. What I have heard is that codeex is just more slower than cloud code in general, you know. So I want to see how that plays out a little bit. Chevy hood, what's up, dude?
Nice to see you. Nice to see you all. Okay, chat. So let's actually to warm things up a little bit while people show up on the stream. I want to start with reacting to this 10x engineer and now I'm useless. And you know, a lot of people's identity was literally about being good coders. And I think like now more important than ever, you kind of have to expand a little bit your set of skills. So besides being a good coder, a good problem solver, you need to be a good engineer in general. Like you guys need to be ready to engineer an entire product.
And I'm talking about outside code, you know. I'm talking like taking highlevel decisions. um things like if you should use Cloudflare and if yes why and you know which database driver should you use and why those database drivers like you guys just need to be just better software engineers and less code typers almost so I'm super curious to see this video and I think we are going to react on it real real soon chat all all together first of all let me know how the sound is hopefully it's good has completely oneshotted my ability to code like okay how is the sound chat hopefully it's good Mike is saying the following.
I'm using codec sometimes and yeah it is slow. So that's what I've been told. You know I've been told that codeex is good but slow. That's it. You know saying the following pen PHP is broke at the moment. It's the inject GS injection not working because of the char setf8. Okay I'm going to double check that. John Sugar is saying the following. I don't find codec slow at all. Well we are going to find it. We are going to see it real quick. Sound equals good. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. How about polycope from beyond code?
I honestly think that the tool we are going to see today will be very similar to polycope from beyond code and I have used already polycope from beyond code. I can actually show you guys uh that tool too and I actually feel it's super close to this one like in terms of feature feature set it feels like super similar. Try saying let's enjoy the stream now. Yo absolutely absolutely first of all before we dive into all of this stuff today what do we have to talk about? We have to talk about Lakonu Lakonu. I was the MC and I want to just give you a quick recap how things went.
Uh so first of all being an MC is much different from being a speaker is just like I would say that there is a lot of variables when you are MC and you just need to be ready for everything else you know so it's I stressful high pressure during two days straight overall it went fantastically I was happy of being an MC I think people were happy to see me on stage that felt really good and it's actually very special Laval community we have you know Laval community is so special in that regard people were supporting me that feel that felt the world to me.
I'm going to be honest with you. You know, Taylor talk was wild, dude. Absolutely. I don't know if you guys have seen, but Taylor literally received a call from Open Claw on stage and he said, "Merget it." Like literally a badass Merit on stage and so many things could have went wrong, honestly. So, that was so good to see. Domino's, wait, let's [ __ ] go. Legal Dom, what's up, dude? Nice to see you, man. Joanito is saying, "My man, what's up, dude? I'm doing fantastic, man. How you doing today? How you doing? Develing the following quick feedback.
I would love to have the link to YouTube stream of Lakonu. Oh, it's literally like you just type Lakonu on YouTube and it's just basically day one and day two. That's it. Meret best line of 2026. Merjet. Absolutely, man. So, overall it was fantastic. You know, then I went to Belgium to do a stream with Freak MS and you guys have seen that one. I think it was awesome. It was at Freak M's office and it went fantastic. Okay. Yep. Yep. Yep. Yep. Yep. Yep. Yep. Let's move forward chat. Let's say thanks to our sponsors.
Redberry International, of course. They're absolutely fantastic. Check them out. They are good making lot of apps. View apps. They are fantastic and beautiful team. So, check them out. Of course, redberry. International. So, SER API, if you want to have access to a nice Google search API, you can definitely use their services. They also work with Amazon and everything, but basically like if you want to have some nice search results and through a nice API, this is definitely for you. Okay, SER API for the win. Titan, of course, the building and rescue web apps and development teams that are awesome.
They also have the people behind the book up and running from by Matt Staer. You know, I'm a big believer on Titan. Check them out. Mail trap, which in the past used to be like this local solution and now they're just allow you to also use them as production solution. They're absolutely awesome. Check them out. I also love them. And Jet Brains, of course, you know the company behind PHP Storm, the best editor in the entire planet. Okay, PHP Storm. Check them out. Absolutely awesome. Jet Brains, Code Rabbit, if you want to have some nice AI reviewing your pull requests to G through GitHub.
They have you they give you a nice review plus some nice charts like this. They're awesome. Check them out. And of course, Devon AI. If you want to offload some tasks to AI, you can use Slack integration, linear integration. You just say, "Davin, get it done." And they will get it done and we'll make you a nice pull request. Thanks to my sponsors. They make my dream possible. Okay. Yo yo yo yo yo Vulc, what's up dude? Dabel, nice to see you. Agent, how you doing, man? It was so lovely to be with you at Lakonu, man.
It was so nice. It was really nice, man. I'd love to be with you. I hope you enjoyed the t-shirt I gave you. So service Adrian John is saying the following. It was streamed on Vimeo. Uh, no, no, no, no. It was streamed on on YouTube as well. Okay. It was absolutely streamed on YouTube. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Okay. All right, Shad. It's time to react to I was a 10x engineer, but now I feel useless. Okay. And a lot of people feel this way. So, I want to kind of pay attention to this video.
Like, I know a lot of us AI has completely oneshotted my ability to code. Like, I know a lot of us like to joke about AI psychosis and how it's the other people who have AI psychosis and not us and not me certainly. But I I have realized that I have been oneshotted like I can't code anymore. My brain has been fried by the easy button that the LLM Now this is actually a reality. Do you guys felt and I actually felt this myself and I want to hear your opinion. I don't know if you're speaking about that but I want to ask you like did you guys also felt that you now just typely you just type code slowly?
Not that you have forget how to review code or to how to you know how to how to understand if code is good or not but like just try to do anything without internet. Okay, don't we don't have we don't have to go far just shut down the internet and just type just try to type characters yourself without any nice autocomp completion from GitHub copilot or without any nice AI just you know smashing code for you. It's so much different now. It's almost like impossible to do it. I, you know, no problemmo for you or for me it's just a huge problem.
Honestly, I cannot do it anymore. So, type on the chat. I want to hear your opinion chat. I want to hear your opinion about this situation. I feel it's a problem. It's it's a problem that even like back in the days when people got this first math calculators, they forgot how to how to do math by themselves. And I feel a little bit the same here. You know, you can kind of understand if a a math resolution is correct, but you don't know why almost. No, the live stream was on the YouTube channel, dude. Lot of lot of your YouTube channel though, you know what I mean?
Hey, Pick and Flow, nice to see you. It's been a while, dude. How you doing? Vulcave is saying the following. Sorry for the question. What MacBook do you recommend for Docker, local LLM, software development, virtual machine? I think you should go for the latest MacBook and ideally with the highest memory possible. I think memory RAM is just so important these days. If it was up to me, so right now my laptop is the following, by the way. Okay, I have a MacBook Apple MacBook um M4 Max with 36 GB of RAM and I regret so hard using this [ __ ] 36 GB of RAM.
I should have went it with 128 because now I don't I cannot run any single good model locally which [ __ ] me over, man. I'm so bad. So just basically so sad about that situation you know Kuban Federal what's up dude welcome to the live stream nice to see you here today man is saying the following I realized this when I decided to code on the flight exactly so when you try to code without internet it's just a [ __ ] nightmare you just cannot do any [ __ ] companies have provided where you press a button and literally 67 you know literally 67 instant results and now my dumbass brain when I want to sit there and try to code by hand.
It says, "Why would you do that? Why would you code by hand when you could press a button and get similar results seemingly? Why the hell would you do this by hand? You idiot." Plus that like I honestly feel like every single time I'm just typing code myself. Like why AI is just so much better just not not much better doing it, but it's much faster doing it, you know? And I can just adjust things myself afterwards. You know what I mean? Vulkov is saying the following about the MacBook he was asking about. That's that's what I thought.
I felt limited with low RAM because of that. Thank you so much, Nuno. Boom. Pick and Flo is saying the following. Queen three queen 3.5 runs on a 36 GB as well. Pretty decent. Pretty decent and only takes 22 GB of RAM. You think like 22 GB of RAM within a laptop of 36 GB? It's just not a lot. Like you open Chrome, you open Safari, you open PHP Storm, you are out of RAM real real quick chat, you know what I mean? You know what I mean? I just set up a server for myself.
I may actually do that, you know, with fly and [ __ ] you know, one terabyte of RAM. I may do it. I may do it. Legal dom is saying the following Chrome rank hog. Absolutely, dude. Absolutely. And so now I'm like By the way, chat, if you just arrived, today will be awesome. We are going to literally use three code uh application. So, this is something new from Theo, which is a YouTuber, a popular YouTuber actually. And what I've noticed is that this only supports codeex. So, it's a nice opportunity for us to learn about Codex and how good Codeex actually is.
So, we are going to build a quick app, a quick to-do app, or whatever to see how fast Codeex can get results. We are going to see the features of this app will be absolutely dope. I need to ship a software product, but I'm completely at the mercy of the AI companies to build a model for me that can do my job. But there's a couple problems with that. One is that responsible developers are presumably supposed to be like reviewing their code. In practice, everyone knows that you can't review AI code. Not only is it h this is not true, by the way.
I do review every single bit of my produced code by AI. And you know maybe he will mention it we don't know but I do review every single bit of AI produced code and I have told you guys the tip about this. The tip is that you don't prompt for a full feature. You prompt for individual pieces of that feature and you just go slowly but surely. That's how you review code produced by AI. You know what I mean? Pu what's up? Nice to see you. Pinflow is saying can a lot of cloud add lm hosting for us.
That's actually good feature request. We can definitely talk about that. impossible to keep up with the AIS. They want to move like a thousand miles per hour and and we're here like 30 miles hour like reading trying to understand every line. It's impossible to keep up with. And so the question is, well, can we ship products without reviewing the code? And in recent videos, I've been trying to warm up to that idea because it is what I need to ship my product. Take OpenClaw as proof of that. Peter Steinberger never looked at the code. It's huge.
It's it's a monstrosity. Is this true? Like the co the open clock code haven't been reviewed by the Is this true chat? Does anyone any of you know if this is true? Wow. If this is true, that would be unbelievable though cuz Open Claw was literally mentioned by Nvidia as being one of the most important open source projects ever like in the industry ever. You know what I mean? John Sugar is saying the following. I wonder how much 30 48 gigabytes cloud server would cost. Well, with Hibernation potentially nothing even, you know, Open Claw is the most sloppiest app.
Oh, okay. I didn't know about that. I don't know. I feel like every single maybe open claw is like it's not a good example but I feel like if I just allow AI to go nuts and just produce whatever the generated code over time would just be bad because it's just [ __ ] average. You know what I mean? So Gabel is saying the following. That's the thing. I mean this is the reason for security issues and pull request spam. Absolutely man. Cuban Federal is saying the following. Not writing code has helped me tremendously because now I can get uh to review my code, think about uh it reason about it and have a pair programmer doing the heavy work plus I don't have to write tests anymore.
I don't know man. There's a few things you said that I don't agree. You know, like even the not write tests, I don't think that's a good thing. He's never looked at the code and he's testament to just what can be done. I guess if you don't care about the code, it's no secret that if you don't look at the code, you'll go really fast. In my last video, I likened vibe coding to essentially evolution with natural selection, where evolution seemingly has no idea what it's doing. To code up something as as precise as a hand, it doesn't say, "Hey, I want to make a hand.
How do I code it up?" No, it tries random thing. Now, I'm thinking like, is really the I'm going to ask Chip real quick. is really the open claw never was I'm going to ask real quick. Was open claw developed without any code review like just you know just vibe coding? Let me see what what Chachip tells me about this. Yeah. So it wasn't actually developed like this. So what Chachip is telling me is that the early PC was developed like that. But after doing that, it kind of starting rearranging things and you know kind of organizing the code.
Exactly. After it exploded, it started to just reviewing everything, scrutinizing every single bit of the code, which kind of makes sense though, you know, cloud released right now a new feature. Which feature is that one? Cumin Federal saying the following. I mean, AI writes them for me using pass of course. Oh, that makes sense. Yeah. And if then you review the test and if you agree with them, that's a good thing. And if it passes the tests, it adds it to the DNA stack. As long as you survive, you'll add your DNA to the gunk of the DNA code base, which is absolutely incomprehensible, inscrutable.
And yet, it made us. And so it's like, well, if evolution can do that, why can't I have this? That is one thing which is worth to think like on uh when I was in Belgium me and Freak we actually you know we went out for dinner and everything and we had me and freak van which is the creator of spasi and many packages you know and we were discussing like a lot like of about the future and something we discussed is that eventually and this is just a hard reality eventually AI will actually become a [ __ ] master expert developing full sasses like literally You just prompt you I want a full sess like this and everything will be just perfect from the very first character to the very last one.
Eventually we'll become like that. That's just the reality you know we keep increasing the memory. We keep we keep you know having quality on these data sources that train those models. Eventually we'll be like that you know uh it's not even close to that yet though which is not even it's John Sugar is saying the following. The main thing with open claw is giving you access to your machine. Uh it is have access to your private data. That's why installing on a private dedicated cloud server is better. Absolutely. But like to let let me know if I'm wrong, but like to enjoy all of the features of openclaw, you kind of have to give access to private things any anyways, right?
Like you need to have you need to give access to your GitHub account and to your telegram or to your phone number or whatever. Otherwise, why would you use it to begin with? Because if you cannot do anything, you know, so from the moment you give them access to Telegram or to Gmail, for example, I think you're screwed already. Well, not screwed, but you're open to security issues. Yeah. Yeah. You just set up API keys. Exactly. But you give access to those tools and to those private tools basically. Better than random clearly. And if you pit it up with some tests, as long as it passes those tests, then why can't I do something like evolution does?
like, you know, it's good enough to make me it's good enough to make my damn to-do app. Yesterday was a perfect opportunity to test that hypothesis. ChatGpt 5.4 came out yesterday and everyone's somewhat raving about it. So, I was like, "Okay, let's try that." The directive that evolution seemingly gives to natural organisms is don't die. And as long as you do that, you're doing something good. And so I was like, "All right, what is the the the directive for me to make my product go from not existing on the internet to existing on the internet and getting customers?" And so I was like, "Okay, well, the app is currently on my machine.
It's on local host, but I need it to be deployed to an actual environment and I need people to be able to hit the download button and be able to sign up and start using the app." So I was like, "Okay, that is the validation criteria. That's a survival. That's the end result. Now in theory I should be able to give that end result to an LLM model and if I give it the right environment if I give it the right tools then it should be able to automate that result from start to finish. So that's what I did.
I gave codeex 5.4 it had access to the AWS command line. It had access to the GitHub API so that it could read the pipelines and see how that's basically what cloud CLI now is. So with cloud CLI you can literally give access to the models to your cloud Laravel cloud account to create uh database to create like a server. So in theory um the agent have access to pretty much everything every single bit of your cloud code of your cloud lot of organization things are doing it you could commit the code I graphics is saying the following what do you say about us college students learning the old way and AI is taking over I am interested in web development learning PHP right now the old way just need a quick advice so my advice like honestly learning how to program is still essential like you actually need to learn how these things work you know um you know knowing what is an if condition what is a while statement like this is literally programming basis basics that will make your brain just much smarter basically you can you know it's like learning math or learning those basics that will make your brain just better prepared for the world or better prepared for problem solving you know I don't think that will have any impact regardless of AI is dead or not okay that will be my advice so that's still important.
um maybe like in the very last years of your um of your studying that's let's call it that way you probably need to make sure that you are actually using AI and AI you know in the way that the job market uses AI okay John Sugar is saying DL is saying the following if you don't care and set up local locally behind firewalls etc is good but just look at the skills or stories yeah literally I saw a story today where openclaw was being in well so basically just the LDR I think openclaw was being used to no yeah yeah to read github issues and then one issue title have some sort of instruction which got parsed by AI and AI took that instruction and executed some sort of installation of a package which was a malware and affected 4,000 machines that's what I've read between the lines you welcome graphics said just do it all I'm not going to look at the code and so I started it on that prompt and it worked like you know you go on shape.work work right now.
You can hit the download button. Everything works. It's there. But there's a problem and it's that I have no idea who I am anymore in this process. Yeah, that's what I told you on the sense that um you know like a lot of our identity is literally on the craft on the things we do during the day. You know like I wake up and if anyone asked me who is Nuno my answer will be well Nuno is someone who loves software engineering he loves PHP and he loves Laravel. If suddenly PHP and Laravel stops existing like who is Nuno tomorrow you know like it's it's because of that a lot of people are literally getting depressed because of this.
Um so I don't know if you guys feel this if yes just tell let me know but um definitely you know definitely is affecting a few people. software is like especially in the in the ground phases in the early days zero phases. It's supposed to be a really intimate thing between you as the provider and the users that you are trying to sell your product to. You're offering your users something more than just, you know, commodity software that they can get from Microsoft or Google or something. You're what is that link dabel? Let me see.
Uh, where is Safari? Oh, here we go. Oh my god. Peter Steenberg. So, this is the creator of Open Claw is saying, "Confession, I sheep code and I never read." Jesus Christ. That's insane though. Okay, his workflow. Uh, I know you came here to learn how I build faster. I'm just writing a market pitch for OpenAI. A hopenthropic is cooking oo five and turns um tides uh turn again. competition is good at the same time. I love Opus and general purpose model blah blah blah blah. So I will usually work on multiple projects on the same time depending of the complexity can be between three and eight.
Jesus Christ. So he works on three to eight project at the same time. That's insane. Extensively make use of the queueing feature of codeex. I don't even know what this is. Maybe we're going to find out today because today we're going to try open. We're going to try codeex. Okay. I simply commit to main. He commits directly to main. How fun that is. Oh my god. Yeah. I will read this afterwards. Okay. Devel. Thank you for the link though. Appreciate it. Yep. Yep. Yep. Yep. Yep. Multiple maxs. Wait, what? Okay, we are going to definitely read this after.
Looks cool. It looks cool. offering something like artisal, handcrafted, really close support, a really tight feedback loop. And yet what I created here is something that I have no emotional attachment to. I'm unable to. That's a real problem as well. Like I feel like a lot of the people actually finish it the products or their, you know, their craft because it felt emotionally attached to the way it was crafted. You know, it was kind of fun. Like the fun part of building software for some people was actually crafting the code and the problem solving. And in the back of some people's head is that it wasn't actually me building that thing.
And if I with a few prompts, I could build it 100% sure other people can build it too. you know, like I am like I've been thinking a little bit about this and like with if if AI can make you um a 10 times better developer or a faster developer, why don't we see 10 times more products out there? Like we don't actually see 10 times more products out there these days or 10 times more open source libraries. I think it's the opposite actually. You know, what do you guys think? Like do you guys feel let's just let's just talk about this.
Do you guys feel that today we have 10 times more products than before or 10 times more open source libraries? If yes, type yes. If no, type no. I don't believe it. I don't think we have we see I I don't believe we see more stuff right now. That is just what I think. Emily Devis saying the following. What I like about programming is understanding how things work in designing um the architecture so everything fits together. The code feels like my work. Exactly. Exactly. No, I I honestly believe you. I think that's it. You know, marketing that's why Well, marketing is a thing right now, but it was a thing before as well.
I think marketing actually AI didn't actually, you know, change anything here. 10 times more AI slops. Do you I don't know, man. I don't I don't actually feel that is more more products out there. Set up being the business side is still a painoint. 100% sure. 100% sure software is just the start. Absolutely, man. I feel the same. I feel the same. Honestly, software is the most easy part if I'm honest. Everything else is just a [ __ ] um um a [ __ ] painoint. Adrian is saying, "Do you enjoy eating good food?" Um Adrian is also saying, "You could eat [ __ ] but I can make your brain think it's good.
Would you eat [ __ ] or good food?" What? What the [ __ ] is your problem, dude? Oh my god. Sam is saying the following. Right now, for me, things have uh have shifted from problem solving um to building guard rails, workflows, plugins, better processes to make cloud code more effective. For me, I think like that's the most important thing that software engineers should be ing about. is like okay we have this very sharp knife right now which is AI which can make me 10 times better. How can I make sure the produced code by AI will have the same quality as before you know and for that absolutely get guardrails workflows plugins you know in talking in concrete examples on Laravel apps would be type coverage uh you know all those small toolings I have been talking with you about like 100% you know code coverage type coverage PHP standle max like all this [ __ ] I have been pitching for years with AI Now is more important than ever.
Okay. W PHP stand everyone. Okay. W PHP Stan W past. Absolutely chat. Sell it. By the way, chat, if you just arrived, we are going to check codeex and T3 chat in a second. Okay. I'm unable to like offer it to my users because Yo yo yo, by the way, we have 100 people watching the stream right now. So, go all the way down and click like on this video. Okay. I haven't asked yet. So, just so go all the way down and there is a like button like this, you know? You just click on it.
That's it. just [ __ ] takes a second. It helps me a bunch. I have no feelings towards it because I didn't do anything to I I I didn't earn it. I didn't suffer for it. I've like created this like hot dog. This is true, by the way. You know, this is 100% sure true that it's presumably food, but no one really knows what's inside. It's just encased in By the way, Shad, I'm going to grab water real quick. Give me a second. Yeah. Light fight. Uh-huh. John Sugar is saying, "If AI produces slop, it's because you didn't check it." 100%.
That's why tooling is so much more important these days. 100%, dude. 100%. Fowl saying the following. Any update regarding the new React starter kit and will be using inertia 3? Yeah, we need to migrate, I guess. So, that's happening soon. Some kind of synthetic wrapper. And it's like here, here's food. And you take the hot dog and it you put it in the sandwich. It fits in the sandwich. You put the ketchup or not. And you take a bite. You're like, "This tastes good. This tastes like food. Is calories." And so the transaction has been completed.
I You pay money, you get some calories. But I can't do that. I can only work on something that I'm passionate about. And the second I lose interest in something, you can't pay me a billion dollars. This is so true, dude. Like honestly, I don't know if your mentality is like this, but for me at this stage in my life, if something does not interested me, it doesn't matter how much you pay me, I just don't do it. My brain is not higher up to work on something I'm not interested about. You know, if I didn't enjoy being with you guys right now on stream, I would 100% not do this stream right now.
Okay? And same goes with actual work at Laval. I get assigned to a project that is boring, you know, it will [ __ ] take six months to get it done because I just I'm just slow. I just I I cannot focus, you know? It's my my my mind just [ __ ] goes everywhere, you know? So, um that 100% okay. I feel the same hard as this dude 100% to do it. Like I can't work on something I'm not passionate about and now I've seemingly created a hot dog business and my job is to sell it. Well, I don't want to do that.
Typically, a as crafts people, as developers, as engineers, as artists, the art changes us while we work on it because we struggle and we suffer for it. We work for it. We go to sleep uncertain about how we're going to solve this problem and we wake up with a solution and we're excited by that and enlivened by that. Yeah, I also feel the same, John Sugar. This video is literally not about AI. It's about the guy's brain and how he thinks about things 100%. And all that is gone now. There's no more suffering or struggling for things and being changed by things and having your brain expand and grow.
You no longer become a better person by doing projects. That was the number one way everybody like me figured out how to launch a business or how to become a developer. If you were self-taught, you did it by just doing things. And now we're all making hot dogs. I don't know how to feel any kind of emotional bond to the output of my work anymore. I have a sense that a lot of us may be in this sort of like liinal waiting space where no one has any idea what's happening anymore. You have like World War II starting between countries and other countries.
World War II between governments and AI lab. I would say though that well I wouldn't go that far about talking about World War II but um 100% on the AI world. Nobody gives nobody knows like what's happening you know like nobody knows how this will long-term affect companies and software engineers um nobody knows how this will how this will be in five years from now like nobody knows that's true although what do you know is that expanding your set of skills is important know how to work with AI is important so that's what what you guys can work on you know you guys can All right so here is my here is my advice to the nation okay And I am no one to give you an advice, but I'm going to give you what I do think is a good advice.
Okay, what you can start doing tomorrow. Okay, boys, look at me right now. This is important. Okay, this is important. Get ready for the clip. Number one thing you can do starting tomorrow is getting your ass on the gym. Okay, this is something you guys can do right now which will be beneficial for you in 5 years from now. 100% sure. There is no way getting your ass on the gym right now will be not be good for you in the future. will be 100% sure good you know healthywise everything wise so get your ass in the gym tomorrow second thing expand your set of skills will be always important regardless of what skills are you going to learn okay I'm literally expanding a little bit my set of skills by trying to be this entertaining programming guy right so I'm doing YouTube I'm doing YouTube content we have through videos you know I was an MC atonu so I was I'm kind of learning a little bit other things on the field a little bit.
Okay. So, um you know, if something goes sideways, I at least have this side hustle which can potentially become something better in the future. Um you know, at Laval, I always try to make sure that I work with different stuff, stuff that always leads me to learn something new. Um regardless if that's AI or something else. So, you guys can always try to start to do something a little bit more different. And um you know, and also learning the fundamentals. Exactly. Dodo Ty uh for absolutely learning the fundamentals um it will always be a good thing no matter what fundamentals those are in the programming world okay learning how to do use docker learning how to use AWS dashboard like all those concepts they will be things that will be worth for you in the future so expand your set of skills keep hard working and you will be just better prepared for the future with AI okay Sammy saying the following I have struggled with stuff for 20 years and now I have the tool to work with any any tech stack.
It feels like golden time for people um to know how to wear things together. Also, like just to be clear, just having a positive me a positive mentality towards this new stuff is also important, you know, like obviously you can become you can be at home and be depressed and just thinking about this stuff all the time and just be negative in general. That will only like get you together with negative people overall, you know? So, if you could just start thinking, all right, [ __ ] it. I'm going to just embrace all this stuff and I'm going to do like whatever I can to make it work and you will get connected with people more positive.
You know, you go to meetups, you go to conferences and just things just start, you know, getting better over time. Okay, is saying going to the gym is not the same as exercising. That's true. You can uh you can do other stuff. The most important is that you get your steps together. You know, you just move your body, dude. So important, man. probably the best decision of my life if I'm honest. You know, you have the looming threat of AI putting us all out of work. Just go outside and do sports. Uh you save the gym money.
Well, a gym subscription is not expensive. I don't know about in your country, but in my country, it's not expensive. It's just actually super cheap. Out what use we have anymore. In the meantime, we're distracting ourselves with like McDonald's new sandwich and the shape store. I think everyone is in mass psychosis and we don't even realize it and I don't even know what could be done anymore. We're holding our breath for these two AI labs to figure out what is the caliber of these models. Are our jobs safe or not? And it's why you have two very heated camps trying to adapt to the to the to the you know what he's saying.
Well, you know, also something you can do regarding this positive attitude is that if you I mean we cannot predict the future. There's not it's not like you can control it anyways, you know? So why you know why to think about that? Adrian did some exercises today. Here we go, dude. That's a start. There we go. Now we talking, dude. New world. One camp says, "You're going to get left behind. Here's how you adapt. You got to use the tools." The other camp says, "No, these LLM are idiotic statistical machines. Like, you'll get left behind if you use them." And honestly, well, I don't believe on that one.
Okay. I think like just like in the past we saw like C being a language and suddenly you saw like Java and PHP and various various languages which were high level on top of those low-level ones like nobody is actually using C anymore for web development for example or um you know people just use these highle languages or you know when we changed from editors like very simple editors to editors with um you know like PHP storm or um VS as code like it was an improvement overall on things. So, it's always worth to be on the edge of um the edge of technology cuz you know that technology will just end up becoming mainstream at some point.
That's the camp that I'm feeling like I'm in. I've used these tools and Dreamweaver, dude. Oh my god. It's been a while since the last time I've heard that name, man. Dreamweaver. Jesus. [ __ ] You know, I've heard here note Dreamw Weaver. Jesus. I've used Vim Dreamw Weaver, dude. Oh my god. Well, Vim is different because you can actually have a full ID experience on Vim if you customize it enough. But not with Notepad++ exactly like Notepad++ there is so much you can do on it. Like at some point it's just, you know, you just have to use a real IDE, you know.
Now I've one-shotted my brain. My brain is completely useless now. Has no use for coding. The only way to for me to get it back, I can get it back, but I would have to just delete codeex, uninstall it, cancel my subscription. I'm not going to do that realistically because there will be some tasks that I know AI will be boomer detected 100%. But here's the problem. You can say like, okay, just do the really hard stuff yourself and when it comes to like a laborious, mundane task, just have the AI do it. And that's what I tried.
But what happens is you're working on something really hard and so you spend like a day doing it. You're coding and by the end of it you're like, "Man, that was hard. It was rewarding, but it was hard." And then you're like, "Okay, let's have the AI now wire everything up." So you say, "AI wire everything up for me." And it does it in like 10 minutes. And it oneshots it. And you're like, "Oh, wow. That was really easy. Why am I Why don't I do this more often?" It's it's a real drug, man. I think it is.
It's the best way to describe it is it's a drug and you can't wean off. FYI, my first editor, well, my very first editor was Notepad++, but after that was Sublime Text. And I still s I still use Sublime Text today. Once you do it, you just want to do it all the time. And the only way to regain your sense of humanity is to get rid of the drug altogether. There's no there's no middle ground of like Mondays and Tuesdays I'll do crack, Wednesdays a little bit of heroin, but Friday through Sunday I'm going to be clean.
I promise. No, it's not going to happen. You got to go cold turkey. And for me right now, I'm unwilling to do that because I've just it's I've just it's just gotten so bad. The dependence has gotten so bad. My livelihood is at stake here. It used to be if you were an engineer. Yeah. I just I don't I don't remember the last time I have craft. Taylor asked this, but I want to hear your opinion. Like how much All right, let's just put it this way. How much do you actually type yourself right now?
Okay. So, if you if you had to put a percentage like from your entire pull requests, if you had to put the percentage of handcrafted code, how much that would be? Okay. So, for me, for example, what I do is just rearrange code, you know. Yeah. 5%. I would be with pick and flow. Yeah. Pick and flow. I'm with you on that one. like 5% is handcrafted code because I always end up tweaking like the characters because you know spacing and potentially you know a few little things. So we have here a bunch of people saying zero too which is very interesting ef 10 10% interesting 90% dl you [ __ ] crazy why would you do that right now wait no no no no typing from my prompts is not handcrafting code okay I'm talking about actually does the commit message count no no I'm actually I'm talking about like typing public function and then typing the parenthesis and [ __ ] variable as a first argument.
Agent 100% codes, dude. Why would you do that? Come on, man. Who write this commit messages by themselves? I do. I do write all my commit messages. I don't use AI for the commit messages. Wait, do you guys use AI for the commit messages? Now I'm missing out. I'm missing something here. Oh, you use whip. Okay, gotcha. Got you. Yeah. What I've what I've asked is like what is the percentage of handcrafted code? This that was my question. Okay. No, I don't use AI for committed messages. Pinflow is saying that all these commit are 100% AI.
So what how do you do that? You actually say commit the stuff now or how does it happen? Interesting. So for everyone here who is using AI for committed messages, how do you use that? Like how exactly that happens. Oh, you have a skill. Interesting. You Oh, Jet Brains has a button to generate the message. I didn't even know that with PHP storm I do I would have like a [ __ ] g history thing. So what do I use for my commit stuff? Let's say for example I go here and I do this. Okay. So this will appear here.
What I do is just I just fill this thing. I just come here and say feet do this and does that you know. So I don't have any actual um this is the UI I use that's here. Okay. So apparently a lot of you are using the Jet Brains AI assistant button or cursor which equally has a button for that. Yeah, I'm not using any of those at the minute. There is a GitHub button in the bottom. What does it do? Wait, what? Well, do I want to try this? [ __ ] it. Oh, wait. is generating commit details.
It might do exactly what you guys are saying. Okay, it's thinking it may actually it may actually just Oh my god, that's such a way. It just literally did it. Oh my god. Let me see this. This is actually badass. So, I'm going to go here and I'm going to just do this. Okay, so I changed the the main page to welcome. It just generates the commit details. That That's nuts. Okay, that's new. I'm literally finding out this stuff. It This is insane. Oh my god. Well, thank you, chat. That was a good one. my name is Nuno Maduro, PHP Lafel developer.
Also, if you are enjoying today's live stream, don't forget, go all the way down, click on the like button. Insanely important. Okay, just all the way down. There's a [ __ ] like button. You click on it. Also, I have published a new video about Inertia V3. If you haven't checked all of the features of Inertia V3, here we go. Check that out. All right, check that out. Okay, inertia V3 for the win. Well, cool stuff. Very cool stuff to actually being able to learn with you all. Okay, now I have a button which I simply can click on it and that's it.
That was new to me. It doesn't follow semantic commits though you guys know like the semantic versioning thing, semanticing commits or whatever it's called. It Oh, conventional commits. It doesn't follow this though, which could be interesting to do. Yeah, convent conventional commits. Exactly. Which could be potentially a little bit better. Well, okay. Max Vin is saying that Jet Brains does follow conventional comets. Okay. You can set conventional comets. Where do I do that? How the [ __ ] do you guys know that? Do you guys also use this tool? Cuz I Yeah, this is like a click thing.
I can just click on it, you know? Okay. Well, Shad, I think I'm done with this video. But we are going to move forward with some real [ __ ] here. Yeah, overall I want to say that the following a lot of people are depressed obviously you know because this a lot of this cloud code is changing their environment at work and all I can say is that we can we cannot we cannot control the future and my advice to you guys is just you know just become better prepared for the future starting with going to the gym or exercising of course uh being healthy at home also super important just grow your set of skills learn other stuff um either that the uh soft skills or art skills.
Even soft skills are important like know how to communicate, learn how to be a better person. It's actually insanely important, you know. You want to you want to be one person that that people want to work with you, you know? So, all that stuff is stuff you can improve on. Meanwhile, all right, it's time to move to T3 chat. Okay. So, uh thanks by the way to who is it? Who made this video? I don't even know. Okay. Who made I'm going to give you the link. Okay, chat. I'm going to give you the link.
Here we go. Here we go. There we go. That's the link for the video if you guys want to finish up. Okay, moving forward. It's time to actually explore T3 code. Okay, so obviously a lot of the industry is shaping a little bit different. Let me actually record this. I may want to do a video afterwards. Here we go. Here we go. Some water. All right. So, a lot of the ID ID industry is moving and shifting. Okay. at the in the past every time you would go to an editor you would just type all of your code it doesn't work like that anymore most of the you know most of the ID experience now is about prompting and reviewing that's it and that's why we are seeing a lot on the market kind of new apps being out there and one of them just got out yesterday it's called it T3 code and apparently it's the best way of coding with AI I'm going to give you the link chat so you guys can also see it here we go bam bam bam bam bam bam bam bam boom here we go T3 three codes or codes and it's a Mac OS application.
I don't know if it's a Linux or a Windows app. I think this is literally just a Mac OS app and gives you a UI that looks like this. Okay, so you have multiple projects. You have multiple tasks tasks on each one of those projects which I'm sure if this uses G trees or not. So obviously like in if you are working in the same project and you have multiple tasks, you want to kind of use G trees or something equivalent. So you can run the test suite in one of the tasks and that doesn't have uh the other tasks being um you know impacted let's call it that way.
Tapsi is saying the following. I am developing an app and I need to keep the audit log access log. I want to use the action pattern. I was wondering if I should put a audit stuff. So what I do every single time I'm using the action pattern is that at the very end of the action pattern you can literally just store uh you know what happened on that action. That's what I'm doing on Laravel Cloud for example. Okay, DL is saying it's like air.dev from Jet Brains. Yeah, I mean with with AI out there, we are going to see a lot of apps like this because it's just literally you can craft it on one afternoon.
So yeah, it probably it's very likely to be similar to this. Oh my god, this looks good though. We need to try this out too. So this is equally Mac OS apparently. Yeah, this is [ __ ] kind of the same the same [ __ ] So but yeah there is obviously the tool by Marcel Posio and I think with AI being able to generate apps so fast we are going to see a lot of these tools you know a lot a lot a lot chat okay so yeah I downloaded so I have it here we can try it out real quick let me just revert this changes let me actually go to PHP stormy making sure we have a passing test suite so what I will do real quick is uh I'm going to do g composer update because it's been a while since I haven't been on this project.
So let's actually do that. So here I have I am working on my own starter kit. Okay, this is like using React. This is using inertia. Obviously I need to migrate to inertia v3 which potentially could do it um soon. Okay. Um but potentially we need to work on that. Okay, let's just type composer test to see if we have a passing testuite. And we do without a coverage driver which potentially I can just fix it by changing to PHP8.4. Uh let's run composer test once again. Uh I need to have composer update when malfeit is out.
Uh once I find the time man time is a very important thing that for me man at the minute like it's just tough. Time is so [ __ ] up at the minute for me man you know but malfeit kit is literally ready. Okay. All right the test is passing but we don't have uh I don't have xdebug configured it. So, I'm going to just ignore that at the minute. I thought that I had that, but I don't have it apparently. So, I'm going to just ignore that for now. So, this is looking good. However, I don't want the lock files to be committed.
Actually, let's just remove them real quick. So, I want to remove this and I want to remove the npm.lock. Was it generated though? Oh, it's not. It was the bund lock now, I think. Well, let me just do this and just commit this stuff. I'm going to just stay sure bump dependencies. Okay, so we're good to go. Easy peasy lemon squeezy. Let's actually start exporting a little bit T3 app. Uh so let's move here to the app. What I will do here is add actually that starter kit. So I have the Laravel starter kit uh inertia react.
By the way, let me just explain you a little bit how this works. So I have downloaded the binary. I have installed the binary on my Mac OS applications folder. This is the UI that you get immediately. Okay, so it says the following. You need to add a project to this. So let's actually do that. I'm going to click on browser folder thing. I'm going to add an app to it. So add the app and suddenly you have some sort of shacht kind of UI that you can start working on this project. Okay. So I can just start immediately ask for changes.
So I'm going to just say something really stupid and sim in you know simple. Um, can you get familiar with the app structure and just recap it for me? Okay, I'm going to just ask for something really simple. Now, all the way in the bottom, we see already that um we can select the model and we have SHA GPT 5.4, but we also have GPT 5.3 codecs. So, I have a question for you guys. Does he actually make changes? like is that different actually using the codec model and the non-codex model are this different is this better than the previous one so here we have GPT 5.4 four and we have GPT 5.3 codeex.
Which one is best? Can you guys let me know? Yeah, that's only Mac OS by the way. John Sugar is saying make sure you run boost install and choose codeex. That's actually a very good point. I haven't done that. Uh let's actually fix that. So PHP artisan boost install. Uh do you install her? No. Oh [ __ ] What's happening here? Undefined method pages directory. Oh the [ __ ] Do we have a bug on boost? Oh, one is for thinking, the other is for coding. So I should use I'm using the old boost. Oh, really? Oh. Oh. Oh yeah.
Oh my god. This needs to be fixed 100%. Thank you. Thank you, Veltics. Appreciate for fix it. Well, this was faster than asking AI for fix it. Oh my god, I was really outdated on boost. Thank you. All right, let's go again. Let me just uh go here. Type PHP artisan boost install. Oh, yeah, that's much different. So I want AI guidelines, agent skills, boost server configuration. Let's just accept all of this. Do we want level 45? I'm going to say yes, I guess. Uh, do you want to install herd MCP? I'm going to say no.
Uh, so here I say codeex. Yes. Okay. So we have we don't need cursor cloud code and codeex for now. Okay, let's just use this two for now. That's enough. Okay, John Sugar is saying that codeex is for agentic coding. It's optimized for it. Just add open code for later. That's actually a good good point. Uh the throneer is saying the following. Uh GPT 5.4 combines gent coding capacities of the previous codex models with a conversational reward knowledge of non-codex models. GPT 5.4 is the best in class right now. Okay, I'm confused. chat. Should you use 5.4 or 5.3?
All right, let's do a votation. Okay, just the ones you think you should type um use 5.3, just type 5.3. The ones that you think we should use 5.4, just say five 5.4. Okay, here I'm going to say enter. So then we have some boost situation for codeex. Here we go. I'm going to say I'm going to just add them all. Okay. So, a lot of people saying 5.4. So, I'm going to use 5.4. Okay. All right. 5.4. I'm going to select the reasoning which may be extra high, high, medium, or low. I'm going to go with the default, which is high.
So, a lot of the CLI tools are now literally um allowing you to specify how much reasoning do you want. I'm going to just say I'm going to go with the default. Fast mode. I'm going to go with off. I don't really care. What is this? Oh, I can chat or plan. I'm going to go with chat and I'm going to give it full access. Okay, by default it's full access. I may just, you know, ask for every every single command, which I think is annoying. So, I'm going to go with this. So, I'm going to just say this.
Can you get familiar with the app structure? Just recap it for me. Something really simple. Okay, we have literally an issue. Runtime error. Like, it's just literally not working. Oh, it's working again. What the [ __ ] Do you guys saw that for a split second? There was definitely something going wrong there, but it's apparently it's good. Okay, I'm mapping the project structure so it can reflect the actual conventions here. Not a generic L assumptions. I will inspect the back end, the front end, blah blah blah blah blah. So, it's kind of wrapping a bunch of the things we have at the minute.
So, then he will do a nice recap for me. Okay. Boom. 67 100% sure. 67 for the win. 67 67. Okay. It's a lot of L12 app with inertia react 45 off Wavefinder 100%. Yeah. Yep. That's right. Fairly strict action based backend split 100%. Yep. Yep. Yep. Yep. Okay. It's literally just walking through the entire app and kind of displaying. This is literally just like light. This is like just night mode or Oh, holy [ __ ] What do you guys feel about this light mode? I feel the dark mode is too dark and the light mode is too light.
Oh my god, I can barely see anything. I'm going to revert this change 100%. Jesus Christ. A flashback 100%. It was like a flashback in Counter Strike. 100%. My eyes I know. Like cannot see [ __ ] 100%. Oh my god. We options we have here. So we have the system options. Okay. Themes and [ __ ] like that. Uh models, codecs, blah blah. Okay. take some key bindings safety uh I can't delete the threads cool stuff oh the recap is done all right so apparently just you know cloud code will also do this for me I think I'm going to ask for something concrete okay so I'm going to just say something like I'm thinking about building a todo application that will uh allow guests to allow users actually allow users to have their own to-do applications on the back end.
Uh what else? On the on the dashboard. I'm going to say on the dashboard. I'm going to make it complicated. So, they may actually have more than one to-do list. Okay. So, they create more than one. So, this is like already fairly complicated. Let's see how Codex will behave. And something I'm expecting is that it will just run the test suite as part of this. Um you know you have seen that I'm using past pint recctor lot of stand and kind of the whole thing. So hopefully we'll just understand all of that at least cloud code would.
So oh my god here we go again. Ask what skill he has. So, I'm still not familiar with the skills thing, but I'm gonna ask. What skills? What skills do you have access to? Let's see what he says. Oh, you guys cannot see [ __ ] One second. Can I move this? I cannot. [ __ ] That's a problem. Well, I just asked what skills you have access to. That's it. Evanox is saying the following. What is your latest plan to live stream about building some map with PHP and Lava in a limited time? So dude, let's actually talk about that.
Why this is work in progress. Um, let me actually talk with you about that. That's a actually a very good point. So here's the good news, chat. I literally yesterday tweeted something that says the following. Um, so I tweeted something. Um, where is it? Okay, here we go. I was trying to reach out slowly and privately, but it's taking a little bit too long. So I will just ask publicly. I'm looking for a company willing to sponsor something like building a X app uh using PHP and Laravel and blah blah blah in 48 hours. So the goal here is actually doing something a little bit like this.
I'm going to go to a span to a space um more than actually building the app will be like the fun of it. you know, going to a space with a bunch of buddies, having like a very acoustic-wise, you know, visuallywise have a very nice place with barbecue with some beach in the background, like having a really nice place with some drinks and everything where I can just build an app in 48 hours or or in 5 days or whatever. And the goal is like literally just do something, you know? I think this will be fantastic content-wise.
So in the TLDDR of this story is that after tweeting this a lot of companies reached me out directly and you know some of them were just saying I can you know I can give you I can give you the location you know I can fly you in and everything just let me know what you think and blah blah blah. Other companies wanted to go a little bit more further than this. Anyways I got a bunch of invites so I'm happy about this. That was that's a TLDDR. And honestly, like if any of you you feel that it would be like a nice company to be with me doing this, just let me know.
Maybe we can make it work. But the goal is like literally having like you know two to three people literally constantly streaming on my YouTube channel and uh you know and just make it super fun. I think we can make it happen honestly. And it doesn't have to be fantastic. Like something I have learned like on creating content is that you just don't know what works and what doesn't. You don't know what you like, what you don't. So, let's just make one. Make let's make two. And potentially in the future, we do more. But that's that's the end of the story.
Okay. What do you guys think? You guys think it's a good idea? If you think yes, type yes. If you don't think, type no. Okay. I think overall is a great idea. By the way, we just got a bunch of skills. What is the [ __ ] What is this? Let me see. Okay. Apparently, we have a few skills here. Um, one of them are developing with 45, which is the guidance to develop 45 based off. We have past testing. That's interesting. I didn't know that past has a skill. What else? We have um something to build slides.
We have another one which is skill installer, which allows to install like literally other skills, which is interesting. Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. And we have wayfinder development. A bunch of other skills available apparently. You didn't know about this [ __ ] which is good. Mel Loqu was saying the following. Hi Noo-Noo, you rocked it a lot of con. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Picking FL is saying awesome idea. Thank you. I think it'll be fun. And my brother, I have by the way. Okay, I need to share with you guys. I have a very exciting new news.
Okay, so you guys ready? I literally So, as you guys know, my brother uh joined um um you know, kind of was doing some stuff for my YouTube channel. So, he was editing some videos. He was uh you know working with me in some ideas, brainstorming and everything. But he's actually joining full-time to my YouTube channel, which is great news. So, I hope you guys are happy about that. I'm super happy and super excited because we are going to have someone who can just reuse a lot of the content I produce during live streams and just do very polished videos that you guys can watch on the next day, you know?
So I want to kind of have content on my channel like consistently and ideally like every single day you would see like eight hours 8 minutes video or a 10 minutes video with very good content. So you know I just had to literally have my brother fulltime on this otherwise he just doesn't have the time. So W brother for joining me fulltime. I hope you guys are excited about this as I am. I am super excited about this because I think like it will just bump my channel like a bunch because right now I just don't have more time than I than I'm that I have at the minute, you know, with a lot of old job full-time and also like gym and and [ __ ] I just I cannot do more than this.
That's it. My time is just limited. So, I just have to have someone else joining me. So happy that you guys are happy, you know? It makes me happy, too. My brother is a fantastic person. You guys are going to love him. And hopefully like for this new 40 hours application thing, uh, you guys are going to see me already. Okay. I'm going to try to schedule in the way that makes it work when he's already like full-time on this [ __ ] with me. So, it'll be awesome. Yeah, it's awesome news. You know, I'm happy for him.
I'm happy for me as well cuz having something with your family is just like it just cannot be better than it is, right? Because he's I really I really trust him like a lot. So, it just feels like I couldn't find any better person than him, honestly, cuz I I can give him access to all my accounts on Twitter, on YouTube, on my Instagram, on Tik Tok, and everything. And he will be able to just publish content for me. It's just it will be so good. Honestly, I'm so excited. I'm honestly super excited. Super super excited.
His name is Ryu, by the way. I'm going to type it for you. Here we go. This is his first name. So, my first name is Nuno. His first name is Ruy. Okay. All right, let's go back to 3G chat. So, we need to do the app thing. Do I have it still? I [ __ ] don't. All right, so let's type here. Can you build um a great application that uh manages to-do lists? So, basically, the user uh needs to log in and have access to the dashboard. And on this dashboard, he may have multiple to-do lists.
Uh what else? Uh make it cool like a real product. All right, Sh. Let's go with this. So, we have like a prompt. Let's move forward with this. Vulcave is saying the following. That's good to you, too, because you can focus more on content. That's the entire goal, you know, cuz editing is so so timeconuming. I don't think you guys realize like when I go to when you guys see these videos right here obviously videos bring a lot of traction honestly this that's the only thing that brings traction to the channel you don't get like a lot of subscribers from doing it live streams I do it because I it's fun but um these videos right here this is what actually subscribers come from you know so and editing is such a long process just takes forever and not something I actually enjoy doing a bunch so you know it will be fun still phone cam oh My god.
Oh my god. Here we go. We're back to the game. What I was saying is that so by the way, just for info, we're back on the app. I asked for building an great application that manages to-do lists. So basically the users needs to be able to log in, have access to the dashboard and XYZ blah blah blah blah make it cool like a real product and is actually working on it. Okay. And I was just saying that um you know the videos that you guys see here is just a lot of work and editing wise.
is just, you know, I love imagining in code. Thank you. Thank you. Oh my god. Thanks for all your job in advance. You guys are too nice, man. You guys are too nice, man. Too too nice. All right, let's see what we have. So, it doesn't feel like in hindsight that much slower than before. I kind of think though that this is a this is very verbose. I kind of wish this all of this stuff was been hidden, you know, like all this commands run. It should just collapse them basically. I kind of don't need to see all of the seeds.
By the way, I should have planned the Yeah, I'm going to revert all of this, by the way. Yeah. Yeah, I'm going to stop right now. I should have planned it. [ __ ] [ __ ] [ __ ] [ __ ] [ __ ] Okay, I'm going to How do I stop this? Can I even stop? Yeah, I can stop. Let's just stop everything. Okay, I'm going to say something a little bit different. Uh, where do I have the app? Oh my god, it just cracked it all. No [ __ ] way. It did it. Oh no, it was just literally creating the chest and everything.
Okay, I was scared now. Oh, it did. [ __ ] Yay. Okay, I'm going to just literally How do I revert all of this now? Let's just revert all of this [ __ ] because I kind of want to elaborate the plan first. Let's just do this. Okay, going to revert equally all of this. Okay, so we have the skills, we have this codeexy thing, agents.mmd. I'm going to revert this to because I forgot to change to plan mode. And of course, as I told you many multiple times, um, the plan mode is the most important thing in an entire planet.
Okay, so let's go again. Let's go back to the thing. Let's actually copy my prompt. Uh, where is it? uh all the way top. Here we go. Let's go to another chat session. I'm going to delete this one. I'm going to create a new one. I'm going to say get familiar with uh the app and and then we just say can you build a great application blah blah blah blah. So then I'm going to ask this on plan mode which is right here. So I'm on plan mode. So in theory it should just come back to me with a plan.
Okay. So I'm going to say I'm going to start again. And I'm going to use Chachi PT 4 5.4 which is what you guys told me to use. Okay, it's on high thinking. It's on high reasoning. It's not on fast mode. It's on full access. And let's just do it. Okay, there's some runtime error here which I don't know. It just appeared as well on the other uh session. The full access scares me. Well, it doesn't scares me a lot because um you know this is like directory based. So I think we're showing just use git restore.
Well, I wanted to keep the skills and everything, you know. So, by the way, Chad, if you enjoying all the way down, click like on this video. Insanely important, chat. Very, very, very, very important. All right, so it's literally just seeding everything again, getting familiar with the app. Do you guys know if it's possible? Like I've been thinking about this something I always do before actually building something is like letting AI know what are the existing coding conventions regarding testing regarding actions. Do you do you guys know if it's possible to snapshot an existing section because almost I always want to start from a given snapshot.
Maybe I should just put all of that like on existing coding rules or guidelines. That's actually a very good point. I'm just dump basically. Dal is saying the following. I'm scared about cloud workspace and this [ __ ] Why would I give more permissions to sensitive stuff? Yeah, that's a good point. But I think the full access here we are doing is literally just uh you know like directory based. So we should be chilling. Conventions are clear. Uid users actions based. Oh, here we have some questions. Which product scope should be planned for build first? Polished f.
Yeah. Yeah, polished. Yeah, polished MVP 100%. yeah, let's say polished. Can I type one? Yes. Should to list be personal only or share between users? Personal only. For dashboard access, should I keep the current verified email gate or relax it? Um, I actually want uh yeah, I don't want the user to be verified on ease email um because it's just dump at the minute. Let's just action two. Okay. Submit answers. So we are still in plan mode I think. So that should come up back with like a list of files that is planning on changing.
Nuno, can you take a portalite picture? What do you mean? Why would you want that? Mock is saying the following. Create a structure MD for that in a quality MD to run the coverage after each call. Yeah. Uh well I do think that I have the quality MD at the moment. Like I literally run the test suite and everything at the end but I the structured MD is definitely f definitely missing 100%. Okay, Bruno is saying the following VS code has a new fork button to copy the context. Well, that's a good point. What should the main dashboard optimized for?
Workspace view recommended overview on metrics on top list of grids blah blah blah blah. Yes, 100% workspace. Yes. Yes. Yes. Do it. So, it's still not doing any change. I'm actually wondering like how do I Oh, what is this? Can I see like can I have a nice view of the changes? the [ __ ] is this [ __ ] How do I see the code itself? Can I see the code on this app? That would be nice. Maybe not. If not, that's [ __ ] up. Well, let's see. Pickinflow is saying just say create a checkpoint and it will write a markdown file with the current state.
Well, that's a good suggestion. Where are you from Dabel? We vibing 100%. 100%. Well, apparently we are still like seeding. It's kind of crazy that seed is the most used command by AI tools in 2026. Like seed is used all the time. All the tool calls so far they were using seed. There is no code now. Oh my god. Should we break up the news for him? Oh my god. Anyways, let's see if we see any changes on GitHub. Not yet. Okay, cool. Let's see. Let's move here. I'm going to actually move to a new branch real quick.
So, fit uh try T3 shed. Uh bring my changes and let's actually move all this stuff here. I'm going to just type whip. Uh yes, Veltx officially is saying the following. I build on weekend uh for my e-commerce store visual search. Basically, you can take a photo of your car key and find it your um find all your car key covers using Laravel AI SDK for that. That's so nice. Florpio is saying the following. If you click local below the input box, it will turn uh on work trees. Oh, really? Oh, I I don't think I can change it now.
It might be too late. This is taking a lot of time though. Like the what people were saying on Twitter that Codeex is slower. It is indeed slower. Okay. Uh with cloth code it wouldn't take this much time to come up with a plan. So right now I'm not sure if this is just broken or for those of you who have experience with codeex is that normal that takes a little bit more than usual for um for planning. For those of you Oh, okay. Legal DOM is saying it's slower but it's more concise. Okay. It's kind of worth it.
I also give it like extra reasoning like this is high reasoning. Okay. It's ready apparently. Okay, let's see. Okay, blah blah blah blah blah product shape. So, I don't care about any of this. I want to see like the actual code it will it will be doing. Okay, here we go. Visual direction matrix adder list rail create edit dialogue rewrite the dashboard. Yep, yep, yep. Oh, here we go. So, we're going to get Oh, way more top. This is This is exactly what I wanted. like the full plan basically. Okay, so data model we are going to have a to-do lists to have the various to-do lists.
Okay, they will be associated to a user which will be cascade on delete. I don't like cascades on delete. You guys know this. Name will be a string, description, gloable text, color. Okay, icon position and sign integer. So I kind of wish I could see like oh well we're going to find out anyways. So a model to-do list to-do item. Yep, yep, yep. Uid explicit casting. Perfect. Perfect. So it did rely on existing conventions. This is good you know um it's basically relying on the user model to kind of have this tips on how we should build the other models which is good.
That's why my starter kits are very important chat because you just get like all these nice conventions in my models you know on on future AI code. It's literally using UIDs explicit casts in relationships because I have existing models working that way. Okay. and then had, you know, kind of um um getting the relations factories. Okay, I'm going to let it just do whatever he's thinking about doing. So, I'm going to just say yes, move forward. And now I'm going to change to chat, I think. Okay. Uh I'm going to just say move forward. And I'm going to change from plan mode to chat.
Okay. So, I'm going to say I'm going to move forward. So, now I expect the code to actually be crafted. That's what I'm thinking. By the way, Shad, today um I started I'm going to start like a full week or two or three on Laravel stuff like for the framework and I have come up with a huge plan of features I'm going to introduce to Laravel. Various things I'm going to do um that will be basically new features on the framework uh but also like on the ecosystem in general. I have a list of 15 items actually you guys are going to love it.
Okay, so there is new stuff coming from Laravel. Okay. TC is saying UID or UL ID. I'm using UIDs. V7 is saying the following. There is indicator how much token is currently using. Maybe behind your camera. Behind my camera? What do you mean? I have no idea how much tokens this is using. That's actually a good question. It would be kind of cool to have access to that information, but apparently we don't. Okay, so it's relying on artisan to write some of this um create some of this initial boiler plate. So obviously we have you know actions from requests and everything.
So it's just creating all of that. Uh let's see how it behaves from now. Just by the way I think like with behind code is tool you can literally edit the code. I don't think this is offering that solution but we are going to find out in a second. Okay, scaffolding is in place now filling with real schema and behavior policies, actions and everything. Good stuff. Good, good, good stuff. Wid 100%. Codeex got slower today. Okay, maybe that then saying the following no down methods in migrations also. Yeah, who does like down methods on migrations?
Nobody does it. Codeex do read the full project. I don't know if you read the full project. It definitely read a few files. I actually wanted that. I think reading a few files is important, you know. Good stuff. Good, good, good stuff. Okay, so what I the only thing I did Yeah. Yeah. The only thing I think it did so far is like creating a bunch of empty files. Uh kind of starting all the boiler plate and now we'll actually go to every single one of those files and making sure they are just perfect. Okay, good stuff.
Okay, someone is saying click on the plus and minus on the top right to see the code. Oh. Oh, here we go. No net changes in this selection. Which selection are you talking about? Okay, it's not yet working. This plus thing, I'm going to wait a little bit. Um, uh, maybe this takes a little bit to appear there. Yeah, I don't see any changes yet. might take a little bit, you know. You know what I mean? You know what I mean? Meanwhile, chat, if you're enjoying today's live stream, make sure you go all the way down and click on the like button.
What's up, Tik Tokers? How you guys feeling today? Hopefully good. Thank you so much for the ones who subscribed my YouTube channel today. You guys are absolutely awesome. Okay, awesome, awesome, awesome people. This is this is definitely slower, too much slower for my taste. It might be good for people who are working on multiple projects at the same time, but like this is actually more slower. I'm not…
