Ask HN: How to speed up code-reviews?

baalimago — Sun, 18 Oct 2026 12:11:31 +0000

Writing software is practically free. Validating that the software does what we want is not.

Any good methodologies to resolve this glaring bottleneck? What's your post-ai SDLC?

I'm having trouble finding what this actually is

They're entering the search engine scene since they already have "all of the internet" stored due to the expansive LLM crawling -> training?

I don't understand why we http/1 is still around. Even worse: updated to encourage more usage.

Is the MCP ecosystem a preview of what's to come?

Funny how these things work. I built slivingdoc.dev which is practically exactly the same thing.

Glad to see that my idea was on point, even though I ofc failed to make it into a competitive product.

baalimago — Thu, 01 Oct 2026 13:42:21 +0000

I thought that the bulk of memory is already "technically bought" by the AI hyperscalers in the form of the big (not so) "hidden" debt? As in: the supply should already be known.

Why the need for speculation?

We don't know how much they are bleeding financially, it might just be a front

New comment by baalimago in "AX – Google’s Open Agentic Orchestrator"

baalimago — Mon, 21 Sep 2026 17:45:09 +0000

I never quite understood why agents should be treated as anything but normal software engineering. "Just" build a normal service and add an async call to some agentic framework, then parse the results. There is no need to "flip" this system and have the agent BE the process and invent a whole new ecosystem to manage the complexity that this flip creates.

If an agent is treated like nothing but a call to an external service (...which it is), everything fits in the existing programming paradigms. But I guess that's not very exciting. Only pragmatic.

>pretty shitty sandbox

Well, speak for yourself. My MCP servers are pretty solid.

There's nothing in the protocol making them inherently poor other than perhaps popularity, causing a swarm of people vibe-coding things they don't understand.

AI for proofreading/spelling correction and reordering works quite well. My words, but perhaps structured in a way which makes more sense, with sentiment replaced by synonyms.

Basically an automatic "second-pass" which I would've caught had I re-read it, but automatically.

In essence: MPC servers are the sandbox
