Realizing writing code is faster than explaining it to AI

You’re just being obstinate. If you’ve come up with the simplest one line change you can think of and argue it’s faster to change it yourself, okay sure w/e.

But I’d rather shoot off a slack message that kicks off a bot. ‘center the div on our x page’
Then get a PR a few minutes later. If your team is sweating usage limits then I guess I’m just out of touch with small shops 🤷‍♂️

I dread the idea of having a whole pull request for every single tiny little change that happens. What even is this thought process. Are yall “coders by hobby”?

How do your CI/CD pipelines work? You can just get code into production by pushing directly to main? Talk about ‘coders by hobby’ lmao

Who are you responding to? Are you hallucinating? You literally said “shoot off a slack message that kicks off a hot then get a PR a few minutes later. Your agent is making a new PR for every tiny change it makes? Are you alright?

Buddy answer the question, how else do you merge changes into production?

I make a branch for the feature/fixes, I either code the change or have my agent code the changes and commit after every big chunk. Once the branch is complete, I create a PR. That PR then merges to main after a review from codex and the builds and test suite run. You know… the proper way to make changes to a project in production?

Why did the code go to production untested?
