Three Lines of Code in Two Weeks — It's Not Always Laziness
2주 동안 코드 세 줄 — 그것이 반드시 게으름은 아니다
Why it matters
The author argues that evaluating developer productivity by lines of code is deeply flawed, as the visible output (e.g., 3 lines committed) hides extensive cognitive work—debugging, refactoring, dependency tracing, and experimentation. They propose that IDE telemetry, similar to web analytics, could help legitimize and make visible the invisible effort developers invest, especially as AI transforms how we measure work.
