Somewhat agree, I know LLM have boosted my programming output mostly in writing jsdocs and pr descriptions. The things I don't really like doing

- cube00 3y agoIf your docs and PR descriptions can be generated off file diffs everyone's time could be better spent scanning the diff to come to the same conclusions. Consider using your PRs and docs to capture the answers to the usual why questions which LLM won't be able to do.
- devin 3y agoAh yes, but that would require actual effort, and in the end is only going to serve to improve someone else’s model.
- vorticalbox 3y agoThe why is largely in the ticket and the what in the pr.
- dbalatero 3y agoHuh, your tickets aren't just a single vague title sentence and no description body?
- vorticalbox 3y agoSometimes this is the case but most tickets have a detailed info of the bug or links to a confluence page of design specs.
- zten 3y agoI've seen code bases survive three different ticket management systems. Meanwhile, the tickets never made it between the different systems, so if the 'why' isn't in the commit message, then it got lost to time. I will admit that a lot of the really old decisions don't have much relevance to the current business, but the historical insight is sometimes nice.
