> The service is written in Go with few dependencies and an OpenAPI-compatible REST API. At its core, it sends and receives emails. I also generated SDKs for Python and TypeScript with a custom SDK generator. In total: about 40,000 lines, including Go, YAML, Pulumi, and some custom SDK glue.
40000 lines of code for sending and receiving emails? Hmmh...

- aitchnyu 1y agoSurprisingly no AI lover counts SLOCs. I've seen formatters expand readable 1-liners into 4.
- sph 1y agoWhat? All they can talk about is how many lines of code they generated. The other day someone was bragging about having built a 500k SLOC behemoth completely AI generated. Good effing luck maintaining that, and I wonder what the hell were they building that needs so much code. If it were a solo coder writing a half a million lines of code application in the span of a few months by themselves, they would either be a savant or a complete lunatic.
- stuaxo 1y agoYeah, verbosity is the big thing LLMs do. Lots of the work after the initial code generation is cajoling it into writing something shorter then going back and just doing that.
