when compiler appeared assembly programmers would complain all day how ugly and inneficient the generated code was
if you want to get the productivity gain you need to figure out how to solve the code review problem
- bccdee 9mo agoYour solution is, "just ship worse code, it's probably fine"? I think it's your standards that have fallen 90%…
- onehair 9mo agoNo not, worse code. Wrong code. Code filled with bugs. Code filled with lawsuits too. Code that make you look productive this month while you prepare to leave the company, and turn out to be absolute pooopoo the day after you leave.
- jdmoreira 9mo agoI think there might be something here! a core of truth about what the future might hold. I cant take this approach right now though. Its not a good approach today.
- christophilus 9mo agoBut did the generated code do what you told it to do and was it deterministic? LLMs aren’t the same at all. That metaphor doesn’t work.
