alt Hacker NewsWhen I generate code with AI, I will read through each change as it makes them (babysitting). If I don’t understand it, then I ask for explanation right away. At least by the end I have a grasp on what each change does and the reasoning. Then, I can make a PR and highlight the same info for my reviewer and for longevity. Our codebase style is not to litter comments everywhere. We go back to the code review for details and discussion. Obviously, this only works if the changes are small.
Yeah I work in pretty small chunks and do a lot of iteration on each chunk.
This is harder when I'm reviewing other peoples' work. It has definitely gotten to the point where I spend more time reviewing than implementing and find it to be the much more difficult part of the job. Which honestly sucks.
