Folks in “i dont review PRs/code anymore” camp,
Mind elaborating, how? IMO ai-generated code still depends on a) used model, b) how the dev worked on it
At the end of the day, there’s bound to still be missed cases, no? Is it just an accepted tradeoff between speed/correctness?
I think I am starting to rediscover the joy in writing software in this AI age, though not by pumping out lots of code
I've always enjoyed writing mini libraries, to learn how things work, now I am trying to understand how my brain works and make them somewhat deterministic
questions for engineering leaders
a. Do you monitor token usages by your team members?
b. Do you mentally (or even formally) use the metric along with other (e.g. task completed count) to make some classifications on your team?
c. Any interesting thing you can share anonymously?

GLM 5.1 seems to be promising enough for UI work without being as expensive as Opus
This is one-shotted on z.ai chat interface with the following prompt
"Build me a component library with a distinct memphis pop design direction."
it's crazy to me that kotla.vercel.app (no update since 2022) is still getting traffic today
slapped a service worker to it today, I need the 200k requests of my monthly free quota back
writing down my recent thoughts
I wonder what will be different when I revisit it after a few months
