Some tools like code rabbit (PR review bot) encourage you to do this. I couldn’t believe I found myself replying to code review comments to explain to an AI why we would rather let an exception crash the app than to catch and hide it several times so that it would stick in its memory. Having to interact with bots as if they are humans, especially when they are gate keeping, is degrading.
- hypfer 2mo agoNot just coderabbit (though it is a bad offender). GitHub's copilot review feature is an equally miserable experience. That one loves talking in imperatives, regardless of the fact that it is a clueless machine. FWIW, this tells you a lot about both the culture behind who built these things but also about the people that enable this stuff and don't immediately nope out. From that perspective, it's a low price to pay to learn whose judgement to never trust again.
