How many hours a week are you reviewing PRs now vs. a year ago?
Curious whether AI coding tools made review the new bottleneck, or whether teams quietly lowered the bar.

Pitched 2 outlets for the Lacewing Creative faith based advent calendar today.
Looking to find anyone else globally who is thinking Christmas or advent guides who might like to chat.
Who could you help me connect with Twitter?
I have to imagine the amount of compute accessible to all the ChatGPT and Claude desktop and CLIs is its own bot farm by now.
The ability to DDOS or hack anything with that much compute is unfathomable.
And we all installed it and keep it working 24/7 willingly.
UI's are also just API wrappers.

I implemented and shipped support for MCP at Clerk, I contributed to the MCP spec and SDKs, and I was involved in steering the direction of the protocol in the early days, even attending in-person meetings about it with a variety of industry players.
I am now very strongly against MCP and advise against using it both as a consumer and as a provider. Unfortunately, I don't think there's any going back at this point, but I feel sadly confident that it will waste countless hours of everyone's time over the coming years, when a much easier and better answer is right under our noses.
Let me tell the full story.
I mean, AI is amazing. Actual travel data from 4 sources being turned into a map-based journal. Time in our RV around the US in orange, flights in blue
Syncs w/left sidebar (not shown) that includes vlogs, notes, photos, & other resources from time in area or along the journey.
So commit yourselves to mastery. Go all in. Be obsessed. Practice deliberately.
It's the only way you'll stand out.
The highest quality will continue to require mastery, even if AI assists.
The expert still shoots an arrow at a target, just like a novice does. But the expert lets unconscious dynamic quality take over, after years of discerning, filtering, strengthening, repeating.
With attention diminishing, building getting easier, and the rise of the comparison algos, the things we will say have quality will be those we spend an inordinate amount of time to produce.
This is why you hate AI writing. Not because it's wrong. But because it's easy & average
