alt Hacker NewsDidn’t we learn anything from the past? Using loc or number of commits or github stars to measure success or productivity is so backwards. It seems everyone on the AI wagon is either young (and so they don’t know our history) or simply forgot about all the good practices in software engineering
That latter bit is my experience. As soon as AI enters the equation, we have to immediately ignore everything we ever learned and just type text into the prompt box, or you're not doing it right.
