#1 rejection reason: missing context. 80% needed human fixes. Agents can write code fine. They just don't know what "done" looks like in your codebase.
Count successful merges into repos with real history instead of LOC and the hard part is specification, not execution.
At augment code we specifically build our code review tool to find noise to signal ratio problem. In benchmark our comments are 2 to 3x more likely to get fixed compared to bugbot coderabbit etc
At augmentcode.com, we've been evaluating Haiku for some time, it's actually a very good model. We found out it's 90% as good as Sonnet and is ~34% faster than sonnet!
Where it doesn't shine much is on very large coding task. but it is a phenomenal model for small coding tasks and the speed improvement is much welcome
Fivetran acquired Census (reverse-etl) & Tobiko (dbt alternative).
I wonder who's next to really consolidate their platform play and compete with the old legacy MDM provider like Informatica. Data Observability or Catalog like Monte Carlo and Atlan. The whole Modern Data Stack has either died, acquired or merged by now. Wonder what's missing for Fivetran to IPO too.
I also wonder what this merge means for Airbyte who raised 150m at 1.5b in 2023.
the MTR study is a joke. it surveyed only 16 devs. in the era of Sonnet 3.5
Can we stop citing this study
I'm not saying the DORA study is more accurate, but at least it surveyed 5000 developers, globally and more recently (between June 13 and July 21, 2025) which means using the most recent SOTA models
does that mean that Windsurf will only support OpenAI models going forward? I doubt OpenAI will pay to have users use Gemini/Claude? Especially as all of these Ai coding tools (Windsurf, Augment, Cursor) are heavily subsidizing the users.
I wonder what Anthropic makes of this. Windsurf was like a top 3 customers of them, might be a big revenue blow too?
