When writing code, do you ever feel like you're in a dark small uncomfortable room? Almost like a kind of synesthesia. When the code is nice, clear, and robust, it feels like a comfortable expansive well lit space. When it's messy and tangled, it feels like I'm in a small and uncomfortable space, unable to determine the shape of my boundaries, not knowing where the exit is. Using AI somehow makes this feel worse for me. Accepting Cursor-style changes makes the space I'm in feel less familiar, less consistent. It feels like the shape of the rooms and walls might have shifted but it's too dark to see. Only way to tell is to feel for all the boundaries again, walk the perimeter.

A stupid idea I’ve always wanted to try is a physical “code smell” device that would scan a code base and emit an actual ambient smell.

Now I'm feeling claustrophobic and it reeks.

Maybe @samantha can do a series of PR review candles. When you review a PR, you also assign a /humankind candle for the submitter to light while they work through the feedback.

And when you submit a PR that breaks prod, I come to your house and break the candle as a consequence 🤣
