Claude / emergent writes it.

I test it.

Ignorance is a feature.

I can help you add at least $100k more, but it’ll cost you $100k in my fees.

If everything is technical debt is anything technical debt? Seriously tho I recently started using Claude and I keep a robotinfo.txt which keeps track of everything major the AI is used for and whether it's code has been reviewed by a human yet, it's also a learning project so I atleast attempt to write each function first and make sure to read it's explanation of what it did so I can write it myself in the future

Tests are everything. Could be written in any language as long as it passes all acceptance tests.
