alt Hacker NewsI'm way too afraid of a "paperclip problem"-style target overfitting to use it really; how could I even describe a goal so well it doesn't sacrifice other things that are important to me? Like, if my goal is to make an endpoint faster, will it create an over-engineered mess out of the clearly readable code I have to reach that goal?
If you want to be able to use it like that, you need to find a way to encode (most of) your concerns into something that can be programmatically verified.
