Author's github history looks like an absolute coding machine

Spending a little bit of my free moments throughout the day interacting with coding agents on my phone, it's almost impossible to not have solid dark green for every day.

These charts are less useful than they have ever been for determining how much code a person writes, but they are probably a good metric overall to measure the productivity gains going on in the industry overall.

many of those commits are in private repos. I've seen people pushing e.g. weather data to GitHub in regular intervals blowing up their commit numbers. Just check this to find crazy numbers: https://committers.top/

The days with lots of commits start rather abruptly at the end of 2023, so it being some sort of automation seems plausible.

This is awesome! Are there any other things like this?

Sadly the domain never.gonna.give.you.up was not available. (Damn, that's the kind of stuff we entertained ourselves as freshmen on a PDP-11 with a few terminals in 1991.)

wow, using coding agents from your phone is interesting. what's your workflow look like?
