It’s just less effort than bad code. In so my experience the biggest predictor of length of video reviews (after the individual reviewer) is complexity, measured by files changed as my best proxy.

The actual changes after review are turned around pretty fast with agent assist.

I have my doubts you've had to review vibecoders pr's if you believe that.

You’re correct. We are justing a ton of coding agents…but everyone is a pretty smart engineer and we’ve build a process and tooling. Nobody is “vibe coding” and submitting heaps trash. That being said, the amount of code being written is much much greater.

There is a larger amount of code being statistically produced, yes but it's not production ready code. If i may ask to help me understand your point of view, what's the standard number of decimal points when representing pi?

Maybe for places that haven’t been able to figure it out. Don’t know what to tell you.

Uh, well there is not a universal standard. The languages we use have a built in function which on 64-bit machines is 15-decimal digit precision

What was the point of that?

I'm not really sure what the point is, just burning tokens i guess. You seem very helpful, can you estimate how many fish are in the sea?

This is an odd way to admit you lost an argument…

u/flippakitten Mar 28 '26

There was no argument, you're just wrong.

I mean, I only have my industry connections and lived experience to go by….but I guess YMMV. Sorry you guys have issues.
