Honestly people are in such a weird place with this shit. I'm not saying don't read the fucking code - but I managed to get my setup to write 100k lines of indistinguishable SWE code in a week or so. The main limitation was my reading speed. This is something like a 10x speedup for me.

How does one verify 100k lines in a week? Let alone evaluate it to being SWE equivallent? That's super human. I like to think I am pretty good at what I do, but really critically engaging with 100k lines in a week is beyond even 10 of me. Forgive my skepticism, but I'm going to hazard the guess that you don't know what the fuck you're doing. You've lost your goddamn mind if you think you're doing anything other than skim read at a rate of 42 lines a minute for your entire work day without a break.
