it's a good start. VSCode is most popular. Largest impact. More potential users. More likely to find a customer base.

That's my experience with co-pilots too:

- Generating tests

- Generating functions consistent with prevailing style of similar functionality in the existing codebase. The greater the consistency, the more helpful the AI is at generating.

- Telling me why my code is crap by adding a `# todo: ` above some code and seeing what the AI suggests should be changed :)

What other tasks do you see as good target for 5-10x boosts?

I like this. I think AI agents are the future of software development.

AI will not replace devs. Devs that use AI will replace devs that do not use AI.

The most effective devs will be those employing a fleet of AI agents, acting as the glue and guiding hand for what the agents should produce.

This helps us get to that future, so I think this has legs.

I use VS code. I will try this out.

FWIW, HN is much more positive (while also raising valid points that will be taken into account going forward)

flake8 does not currently support this check, as they are concerned about the false positives from "what if the string it later used in .format(...)"

However, Code Review Doctor is more of a "this MIGHT be a problem. have you considered..." rather than "it wrong"

what's also ironic is I left an easter egg in the code sample for how we downloaded the list of repositories and no one has noticed it yet.

klyrs was right about the reply from me (a dev behdind Code Review Doctor) being dismissive in the issue. I apologise for that.

FWIW my reaction was classic "expectations not meeting reality": weeks of work to do (what I thought) was a mutually beneficial helpful thing. I was naively not expecting non-positive responses and was ill prepared when you raised valid concerns I had not considered.

Again, I am working on that and sorry I was passive aggressive to you.

Yeah good point that sucks. I will move off wordpress because I'm not a fan of tracking cookies. It's got ridiculous.

interestingly 69 of the 666 repos had the f string issues
