From the discussion

A few top-level comments from Hacker News, shortened. Read the full thread on Hacker News.

Not a single mention of value or revenue. Only three metrics went up: LOC, token spend and presumably release speed/frequency. What's the markup (profit/COGS)? is it up? Customer satisfaction? Is NPS moving one way or another?

This post is funny to me, because I feel it falls well short of what a proper, forward-thinking "AI-native" engineering org would actually look like. That is, the author is presenting this as kind of a radical departure from normal engineering, but I just see it as normal engineering with more AI. I don't see that as…

It this point, a whole lot of teams have been leaning into AI-first, not-entirely-reviewed code since around March this year. That means we are already 6-8 months in, and not far from having a full year of experience of what that actually looks like, albeit weirdly influenced by the increase in model capabilities…
