I just don’t have time to review 4000 lines of code

4000 lines of code

Got in the way: Reviewing massive, ununderstood code generated by managers and devs.

The whole situation is suboptimal because the manager uses Claude to generate tickets, the developers copy and paste the whole thing in to Claude and then post a PR they didn’t understand a thing about, and then it gets to me and I just don’t have time to review 4000 lines of code. So it ships having not had a single person understand what it does or was even for.
