The fallacy being spread about code reviews goes like this:
Guys the future is to not have code reviews. Therefore, be prepared. Therefore, don't do them NOW.
No, now is not the future.

Want to delete an association but not sure what still uses it? Rails 8.1 can tell you.
Add deprecated: true and every use is reported, including preloads, joins and post_ids. Pick :warn, :raise or :notify (an Active Support notification you can send to your error tracker).
Talking OSS & AI is complicated because there is no single definition of OSS.
There are different types of projects, profiles and, specially, different types of **motivations**.
Those doing OSS for its social aspect may legitimately not see a place for AI in their projects.
The Rails API documentation has been converted to Markdown:

In my toy apps, vibe code works.
But in client code with millions of lines, there is no patch that is right on the get go. I steer by reading the code.
Those not reading... if you were in this project, you'd be shipping shit. Incorrect code and incorrect tests.

I wonder what is going to happen with AoC.
I think the paradigm shift is making different types of programmers apparent.
Like the ones that considered programming a chore, or the ones working on a product, happy to be able to go faster than ever.
