I don't require metrics in these instances. I review the code and test the functionality. That is sufficient for my needs.

- lolakutty 6d ago> I review the code... If this is true, then you are not saving a lot of time. Because most of the time is spent evaluating various options and ways to implement the functionality. Even when you are reviewing, you ll have to do that. (With LLMs, this is even more feasible, because now you can actually implement some of the variants, and evaluate them). But on the other side, you are saving from typing the code. So if you are really reviewing everything, then you are not saving much time. The alternative is that you settle for some local maximum during each review, that in long term won't necessarly translate to a globlal maximum or even a global "good enough" position...
- teliskr 6d agoI'm saving time. It's implementing features in a few hours that would have taken me weeks to implement. I can review code much faster than I can create well reasoned, implemented and tested solutions.
- lolakutty 6d agoCan you tell me what the most complex thing (software) that you have yourself implemented is?
- senordevnyc 6d agoThis faux socratic method flavor of AI skepticism is so cringe at this point, and reeks of your own insecurity in your beliefs. We get it, you don't think AI is useful for the type of coding people claim it is. Why on earth would anyone try and convince you at this point?
- lolakutty 6d ago>AI is useful This is not a binary thing. It could be useful at the same time detrimental in some manner. Look at smartphones. I am just raising the possibilities if one use LLMs indiscriminately to generate code.
- senordevnyc 6d agoNo, that would be more honest. Instead you’re asking loaded questions as if anyone owes you an explanation or proof.
- lolakutty 6d agoDon't answer then...its as simple as that... They can LLM themselves to complete lock in for all I care...
- senordevnyc 6d agolol, yeah, you clearly don’t care at all
- lolakutty 6d agoI care about other things. Like my amusement that I get when I see the AI praising accounts go silent once they are pushed a bit...
- senordevnyc 5d agoProbably because it's utterly pointless to try and convince someone in 2026 that LLMs are useful for coding. Why waste time trying to talk to someone with their head in the sand?
- lolakutty 5d ago>LLMs are useful for coding.. No one said they are not...look at my comment above in this thread! Why are you so mad lol...
