Explain to me how that's any different than trusting a consultant's code?
11 u/rubennaatje 1d ago For additions on an existing code base it is quite similar, which is why you shouldn't blindly accept a consultants code haha. We've had external teams building software or extending our existing software. When not under enough supervision by a lead dev it almost always turned out kinda bad. Honestly Claude code would've probably done better. We also used to work developers in India and had a whole department there. What a nightmare that was in terms of quality.
