alt Hacker NewsFor me the trick was just leaning all the way into it. I had a residual idea that if someone sends me a 2000 line PR, 10 page design, etc., that this represents some concrete investment of time and effort that deserves my careful consideration. And it just doesn't anymore.
I have one project where there must be hundreds of pages of design proposals I have not read and will never read, because the author really likes having Claude generate complete design proposals based on incomplete understanding. So every week or two he sends me a new one, I spend 30 seconds skimming it, and then I tab back to Slack to ask him to explain.
I don't like working this way, but you know, I don't like doing rollouts either. It's certainly better than being a human rubberstamp.
That sounds like a fantastic way for a malicious actor or an unintentional prompt injection exploit to sneak into a codebase.
Perhaps you could explain how this is different from rubber stamping, if it’s just 30 seconds of reading.
Does the conversation you have reveal what they actually want?
And what about the 2000 line change? Does that get stamped after someone talks about the change but without deeply reading it?
