I work mostly with Python and I cannot image my life without type hints.

If you ever had to maintain anything in prod, they're a must.

I would understand the view of some people thinking "why even use python then" but that's a whole other conversation.

Wholeheartedly agree. Astra was some improvement over 5.6-sol in the sense that I'd "argue less" with it, but still frustrating and still sloppy. I'm starting to feel people are not honest about their experiences, they do very simple things or have very low standards. The biggest improvement i've seen from Astra so far is speed.

My experience with agentic coding on projects I care about (because my responsibility in my firm is to care about these things, at least for now) has not changed a lot in the past few months, and I have kept up with every single model update / experimented with harness a great deal.

I'll add one more annoying part: testing the CI/CD script on gitlab. It doesn't exist, and it's hell.

Edit: perhaps it's skill issue too, but I'm annoyed they don't have a similar feature to jump to definitions as github does.
