I am doing my PRs of shame now to rewrite and tidy some of the absolute junk that I let Opus and Codex add to my project last week.

Why yes, they can code in Swift!

Just not well.

I'm patiently waiting for any LLM to get better at native software work.

Being positive for a moment, it is a truth universally accepted that it's far easier to rectify something that's broken than to start entirely from scratch.
@tonyarnold agreed. Unless it’s built on a pile of poor assumptions or design choices that require a rewrite
@tonyarnold this is not universally accepted 😉
@mattiem damnit Matt stop poking holes in my extremely well worded quips 🙈
@tonyarnold @mattiem but how do you tell if they’re cooked through
