Our readingWhat is a korrent?

Models will not learn to write maintainable code from today’s benchmarks, because the cost of bad architecture cannot be measured by running the unit tests — it arrives three to six months later.

Drawn from what Dex Horthy said

What these subjects mean

design How things should be made and judged: what makes a design good, who should do the designing, and what an interface is for.

writing Prose as thinking: writing well, writing by hand while a model offers to do it, and who will still be able to.

software quality Whether a program is any good and how anyone would know: tests, review, debt, and what a suite cannot cover.

Feedback loops

What are tests for, and how much testing is enough?under our view: Tests an agent wrote cannot be trusted on their own, so a person still has to check

What Dex Horthy actually said

  1. Dex Horthy Founder of the agent company HumanLayer
    the problem with training models on maintainability is like the cost function of bad architecture and bad program design can't be evaluated by running the unit test because it hits you 3 to 6 months later
