  I tend to trust Gergely Orosz (the writer of Pragmatic Engineer). He validate sources and has a good track record on reporting on the European tech scene and Engineering Management. His blog and newsletter are both fairly popular on HN.

  The original story doesn't make any sense. How would you fake an "AI" agent coding by using people on the other side? Woudn't it be...obvious? People cannot type code that fast. What's your non-snarky theory about how this could possibly be true?
