Uncle Bob vs. Grady Booch: Rethinking Code Reviews in the Age of AI

Image
In response to a question about the feasibility of effective code reviews for large (e.g., 500-line) AI-generated PRs like those from Claude, especially when reviewers lack deep codebase familiarity in new projects or fast-paced environments, Uncle Bob Martin and Grady Booch have contrasting views Uncle Bob Martin advocates metrics-based oversight (test coverage, complexity, dependencies) and higher-level management over line-by-line AI code review, while Grady Booch stresses manual verification for vulnerabilities, dead code, and performance factors. Uncle Bob Martin : " I don’t review code written by agents . I measure things like test coverage, dependency structure, cyclomatic complexity, module sizes, mutation testing, etc.  Much can be inferred about the quality of the code from those metrics. The code itself I leave to the AI.  Humans are slow at code. To get productivity we humans need to disengage from code and manage from a higher level." Grady Booch : "Unlike B...

A Guide to Spec-Driven Development: Plan, Implement, and Validate

Image
The DeepLearning.AI short course on  Spec-Driven Development with Coding Agents  introduces a professional paradigm shift in how we build applications using agentic coding assistance.  Rather than "vibe coding"—where developers rely on quick, high-level prompts that often lead to technical debt—SDD brings engineering rigour back to the process.  Agent is the muscle, but the SPEC is the brain - In this workflow, the human takes on the role of a senior architect, providing the "blueprints" (specifications), while the AI agent acts as the "muscle" to implement those designs.   The 1 Hour 20 Minute video course has 15 short lessons - Introduction - 4 mins Why spec−driven development? - 4 mins Workflow overview - 3 mins Set up your environment - 5 mins Setup - 1 min Creating the constitution - 10 mins Feature specification - 3 mins Feature implementation - 1 min Feature validation -...
