This didn’t require PRs
But, it did require passing tests
Most of the changes in the end were relatively straightforward, but I hadn’t read the code in over a year.
The code also implemented some features I don’t use super regularly, so it would’ve taken me a long time to load everything up in my head, to fully understand it enough, to confidently make the necessary changes
Without ai, it would have also required a lot of google searches finding documentation and instructions for setting up some related services that needed to be configured
And, it would have also taken a lot more communication with the people depending on these changes + having someone doing the work manually while the scrapers were down
So even though it might have been a reduction of 15hrs down to 1.5hrs for me, it saved many people a lot of time and stress
Who created those tests?
