You do acknowledge this but this doesn't make the "spent 7 hours and shipped 35k LOC" claim factually correct or true. It sure sounds good but it's disingenuous

You do acknowledge this but this doesn't make the "spent 7 hours and shipped 35k LOC" claim factually correct or true. It sure sounds good but it's disingenuous, because shipping != making progress. Shipping code means deploying it to the end users.
- skydhash 1y agoI'm always amazed when I seen xKLOC metrics being thrown out like it matters somehow. The bar has always been shipped code. If it's not being used, it's merely a playground or learning exercise.
- dhorthy 1y agowould "wrote" be more appropriate than "shipped"?
- adastra22 1y agoI don’t think it is any better. 35kLOC of slop isn’t a good metric by any measure, no matter what word you use.
- gloosx 1y agothe most accurate wording here is "generated". we generated 35K LOC in 7 hours, 7 days of fixes and we shipped it. This at least makes it clearer that it is on par with what it would take a senior BAML team member to accomplish this, which is kind of impressive on it's own. Not sure about ignoring the tests though
