Then the GitHub repo (<a href="https://github.com/Kuberwastaken/hp-laser-1008a-macos">github.com/Kuberwastaken/hp-laser-1008a-macos</a>) hit Hacker News. The HN thread delivered what HN always delivers: a brutal adversarial code review, answered with a clean-room A/B test.</p> <p>This is the story of that session — and what it says about AI agents doing work that used to take driver engineers weeks.</p>
