ochidaniel4··on Ask HN: Is AI code verification becoming your main bottleneck?
This is super helpful, thank you! I've heard of CodeRabbit but didn't know about RelayEvals. I'll definitely look into them. Since you use both, I have a quick beginner question: Does RelayEvals actually catch those 'silent' logic bugs I'm scared of (like breaking a hidden edge-case), or does it mostly just check if the code is well-written? What is the main thing you still have to manually double-check even after they both give it a PASS

Thanks, this is a really helpful perspective. I think I’ve been letting the scary stories make AI coding seem more dangerous than it might actually be.

I like the idea of learning where the edges are and letting my confidence come from my own experience. I’m definitely going to start paying more attention to what actually goes wrong in the code I’m building instead of just worrying about what could go wrong.

Thanks, this is really helpful. I never thought about the “doesn’t do anything I didn’t expect” part. That actually seems harder to verify than just checking if the feature works.

When you say you use specs, tests and LLM reviews before shipping, how do you personally know when you’ve tested enough to actually feel confident shipping? Is there a point where you just have to trust it and ship?
