This is too real.

Now I get PRs entirely written by Claude from my VP that include things like full plaintext secret keys, or reimplement an API that exists, just shittier.

“Claude wrote this in an hour, why is review taking so long”

Uhh because I can’t figure out the diplomatic way to say this is shit and you need to stop without creating an incident, and I don’t want to spend half my day reviewing crap.

    Have you tried asking them a bunch of technical questions they don't know the answer to, until they give up?

    Or spending hours explaining in excruciating detail all the reasons why it's shit and what they should have done instead, make sure to throw all the heavy handed certification standards and strict audit requirements and mind numbing bike shedding naming standards back at them.

    Yes. This is the way.

    I'm the VP's ally. Practically their beat friends. It's all these pesky regulations, lawyers, audits and extreme personal liability that is slowing both of us down from doing things the sociopath way...at least until I find a gig with a less sociopathic boss.

    freshers

    Is that the new name for "engineers ready to un-slop the code"?
