post ai coding I like to think of my codebase as some sort of loosely defined orb/balloon.
every time I send of codex to write a feature the "thing" gets inflated. you can only do this so much until it bursts.
/review compresses the object again. and going through hot paths manually / writing critical parts by hand attaches something like a steel between two points on the inside of the blob (and therefore adds stability and tightens it)
if you do everything correctly you end up with a robust and concise "thing" (a diamond even).
if you only progress by the amount of hours you work, you’re definitely underleveraged.
I’m all in for putting your head down but the hustle porn (putting in hours for the sake of it) is straight up retarded.
