Yeah, when there is no code review requirements and no pesky production database you can't just yolo :)

At work, they mostly let me increase quality, because it's easy to say find all parsers in my code base and fuzz them.

It is great. I just had claude yolo a human in the loop image segmentation pipeline last night. It cut weeks of work down to an evening like 4h. Segment Anything 3.1 + Napari final touch.

I'd also say: when you really understand a domain well and you're a one-(wo)man show, you can just fly!

Of course, you can make a giant pile of doggy-doo-doo, but that was always true, just you can now make an epic Giza-sized pile.

Yeah but were more likely to learn how bad your code was in the process. I see people oblivious to their slop putting pressure on others to merge it.
