how are you even meant to review 10k lines of code a day?

Or: too much weed tweeting.
Twitter is such a superficial format that obliterates all context, reason, and sense of humanity. I'm still 100% unsure what the intent of that conveyance was. Brain fart? That's why I don't tweet. Also, I'm too old.

Are you sure of queries in `.js` files? Or do you mean `.rs` files? grep -r -i --include="*.jsx" --include="*.tsx" "SELECT\|INSERT\|UPDATE\|DELETE" ./adminapp grep -r -i --include="*.jsx" --include="*.tsx" "SELECT\|INSERT\|UPDATE\|DELETE" ./menuapp
Apologies, they are in JSON files. GitHub truncated the last two characters on my mobile. https://github.com/brainless/letsorder/blob/main/backend/.sq...

Looks like we are supposed to check them into version control.

Exactly. And I wonder why Paul Graham is jumping on such a statement. Of everything I've read by him so far, this has the least substance.
I suppose VC love it. They want to lower the bar to building products, and make them cheaper. They want a steady line of investable companies with cheap hiring down the line. More generally, it's weird. 10 years ago, the technical aspects would legitimately be seen as a major, perhaps main obstacle to building a product. It's questionable whether that is really gone (can you really, really build a software product no…
Yes! VCs want to make it so cheap and easy to build that you don’t need VCs anymore!
Why would anyone care who Paul Graham hangs out with?
PG has become a parody of himself.
He says that this is not 10,000 lines of bug-filled crap… but, unless you are explicitly verifying and testing the code, how would you know? And, what kind of solution needs 10,000 lines of code added to it daily ? Then again, these could be separate solutions. but, still… this 10,000-lines-of-code-a-day thing seems strange.

VCs fund companies. For them, employee compensation is a cost against their profits. In tech, this is the largest cost by far. The owners of capital deeply deeply deeply want a future where they can earn their billions without paying the rabble anything. AI is selling this idea to them.
Hey, who wants to start a project for CEO.ai?

A. you are doing this "full time"
B. Know what to build
C. More importantly you know "how" you want it built and you push the llm to refactoring regularly in your style.
I don't buy into the "let the agent code for 6 hours straight" agentic nonsense. I review every (big) change and just saving me stackoverflow/Google visits has been a huge productivity booster. Heck I wrote css, proto plugins, dsl parsers, simple games and more because now I needed much less "onboarding" times.
