Developers, We've spent decades arguing •against• source lines-of-code and numbers of commits as a measure of productivity. If you're an AI convert, your proselytizing will be unconvincing if you show charts of your SLOCs and commits increasing. Show us: • How many more features shipped? • How many more of your customers are happy? Showing how you are measuring business outcomes is way more convincing than showing that you're only measuring code output.

    @robbkidd@hachyderm.io My favorite thing is when commit metrics don't even increase with AI. https://zomglol.wtf/@jamie/116053287312218279
