Skills, preferences, and activities that seem to benefit me when using AI to program:

  • Decomposing work into sequences of tasks
  • Knowing good words to express software design ideas
  • Preferring encapsulated, composable units of code
  • Preferring clean semantic separations into modules
  • More frequent refactoring as a part of dev cycle
  • Many small conversations, rarely maxing context
  • Careful manual selection of files to add to context
  • Smaller prompts with more concision and completeness
