I design everything with plan mode and review every line. Nothing happens to my codebase that I don’t decide should happen. With my way of working, tech debt doesn’t exist because I never have to create it.
You’ve made a bunch of assumptions you’re not conscious of. And now you’re blaming me for that.
Open your mind, you never know what you might (un)learn.
So then your response has nothing to do with the post.
The thesis of the post is (paraphrasing): "if an AI wrote it, and I don't immediately grok it or if the code quality is low, I throw it away, even if on the surface it seems to work, because simply 'working' isn't enough to say a piece of code is acceptable."
I'd add as a corollary "and therefore I would never want to be accountable for that code."
If you're reviewing every line then it sounds like you have no argument with the writer and I don't understand what your point is.
Your very first paragraph says:
> If you reject AI code that works then your mindset is still too hands on. Put another way - you still have some loops to work on taking yourself out of.
But if you do indeed "review every line" then you seem pretty damn in the loop yourself and I don't understand what you think taking oneself out of the loop is.
