I don't even deploy anymore, I just proxy the user credit card directly to my API Key on someone else's provider

Oh, you work at Anthropic?

Pardon the snark, but they literally wrote an article [1] about giving up on code reviews because they push 30k _changes_ (I assume that means commits, but they don’t clarify), and were bottlenecked on reviews.

Instead, they claim to just review the _intent_ of the PR and presume correctness will be caught by more AI.

To me, the more absurd part is that they’re pushing that much code.

To put it in perspective:

    Software     # Commits     Equiv. Time
    --—-----     ---------    -----------
    Nginx            8,758              7h
    uv              11,081              9h
    Vim             24,608             20h
    Go              67,914            2.3d
    Git             82,513            2.8d
    VS Code        168,140            5.6d
    Emacs          183,611            6.1d
    Rust           343,063           11.4d

* Equiv time equals the amount of time it would take Anthropic to push that many commits, given their 30k changes/day estimate provided in the article linked below.

It generated some interesting discussions here on hacker news [2] [3].

FYI: The last is a blog post at simonwilliamson.net about the source post, which was flagged appropriately, but I left since it had a few dozen comments as well.

I don't even have a prod environment anymore. I route any incoming traffic directly to my LLM on Openrouter and let it answer.

This is the way!
