It's harder to read code than to write it (coderabbit.ai)

Yes, it's harder and takes longer to read code. Hopefully this reality will propagate to leadership.

But there's something more. It's the benefits of a first-look perspective. With these tools that's lost.

Also, it seems like we've entered phase two of sorts in the sense of we solve LLMish #1 issues by running it by #2. So writing and reviewing. I wonder what #3 will be. Maybe confirming.


I don't know, it depends.

I feel like I've gotten much better at reading code now that I read so much of it(generated).

I don't mind it. As long as I'm not the first human filter, I'll review a colleagues AI generated code without kicking and screaming.


Strange, it appears I am unable to deny the advertising cookie on mobile.
