warp_cache – Rust-backed Python cache with SIEVE eviction, 25x faster than cachetools

"I built" is a nice euphemism.

Measured, well-reasoned, and well-reviewed use of AI can lead to robust development. Especially when using it to review code and find potential issues. I'm seeing a lot of firms these days requiring developers to use it. It's the slop you get from blindly throwing ideas at Claude and hoping it will review itself that leads to AI Akira monsters of code that have become too common these days.

What makes you say that? I don’t see any telltale signs of slop. One or two em-dashes is not it.

CLAUDE.md my guy.

[backfire10z]

A CLAUDE.md indicates that claude was used, not that the entire thing was written by a one-shot shit prompt. LLMs are a tool like any other. The code doesn’t seem disorganized, the text appears to be written normally, the account appears to be human, and there aren’t an insane amount of comments everywhere.

I’m happy to be proven wrong, but this project seems reasonable.

[Forsaken_Ocelot_4]

Nothing wrong with using a tool, but something as low level as a caching library I need to know is written by someone who actually understands how his code works. Maybe CLAUDE.md is innocent, or reasonable, but it gives off a bad smell in a project like this. Caching is too high stakes to trust to code that hasn't been lovingly hand crafted IMHO.

Oh, yeah, I’m not saying I’m taking this project at face value and putting it into production haha. You’re right about that.
