software rewrites are no longer expensive or a thing you should not do the Netscape essay is falsified — currently 1:1 afk porting a golang library that has great snapshot tests to typescript via ralph and it’s just working
@GeoffreyHuntley I literally just copy the tests and the fixtures and let amp go to work fucking insane world we live in
@GeoffreyHuntley Do you think this works well because of the snapshot tests? I.e. if you tried this with a project that has less comprehensive tests, would it work as well?
@GeoffreyHuntley Do you have some intense prompting (or system prompting via Amp) to stop Claude from over-engineering? I find that when I give it too many tokens to do each small task (with sub-agents), it overcomplicates it and ends up with a buggy monstrosity, 10 times as many LOC as needed.
@GeoffreyHuntley Just need to clarify what you mean by “no longer expensive” after recent tweets 😝 x.com/geoffreyhuntle…
