Too cheap to be good? Think again.
I replaced aaPanel/OpenLiteSpeed with Caddy and shell scripts and turned the process into a benchmark. Two phases (architecture then code), one external code review. The winning model? Not the one you'd expect.

Return on Attention: Why AI Code Reviews Are Wearing Us Out
PR volume went up, ticket quality didn't, and the gap got filled with LLMs on both sides of the review: bots reviewing, bots replying, bots occasionally arguing with bots about priorities that only existed in a teammate's head. Our CEO named the actual problem, and it's bigger than code review.

Code generation is solved, but memory isn't. Here's an argument for why the SDLC is inverting with intent becoming the spine and code becoming a layer you drill into, explaining what teams lose every time an agent's reasoning disappears.
