alt Hacker Newsyou can read a 10k pr in ~1-2hr. there’s nothing wrong with a 10k pr. i would rather review 1 10k pr than 10 1k prs or 50 200 line prs.
attitudes like this make it seem like computers are incomprehensible and we’re lucky to ever land code at all

10k in 2hrs is 1.5 lines of code per second for 2 hours straight without spending any time to make comments, think about what the code is doing, etc.
In pre-ai era that is just skimming and trusting the person who wrote it or the code changes are largely auto-generated or there exists an exceedingly simple test suite that is incredibly verbose.
Post-ai you are ruining your code base, I probably have to spend 3-5x longer reviewing ai generated code, the code they write tends to be too verbose, mediocre, filled with subtle bugs, adds unnecessary comments, etc. If someone gives me 10k loc pr it's a sure thing they've just let the ai run loose and I'd just tell them what they need to change in general terms instead of wasting days of my time reviewing junk.
