It do be like that, tho. We were shipping faster, for a while, trying to keep up, and now we're sluggish, cleaning up after ourselves. And there's so much more to clean up!

I feel the same way :). GenAI feels painful though. Prompt, rollback, try again, break something else, rollback again, and so on. AI never quite gets what I want right. There's room for all sorts of folks, though. I admire the "ship raw" crowd, it takes guts to do that. I struggle with analysis paralysis and endless side quests. For people like me, who were already finding it hard to deliver a personal vision within proper time constraints even before GenAI, this kind of tool often becomes a huge distraction (it can actually sink productivity even further). Hopefully, I'll learn how to work with it better. But I'm glad that folks like you are building Alexandria at your own pace. Some projects can be fast and loose, while others really deserve more time and care.
