i found this article on a dev blog that reallyy hit home for me - ai tools are lightning fast at churning out lines and features but the bills come due later. it's like when you splurge all your cash in one go, leaving nothing to pay rent or buy groceries!
for indie devs especially (think solo projects), this debt can pile up quickly without a good system for tracking those generated files' quality.
i wonder how many of us have been there - deployed something cool but now we're stuck cleaning it all out? any tips on managing these costs early to avoid major headaches later?
