Lighting the Dark Factory: Full Synthesis and Application
Seven sources, one thread. Dex Horthy on why architecture has no RL signal, Osmani’s Loop→Harness→Factory and comprehension debt, StrongDM’s return true incident, Pulumi’s Isolation Wall, Stripe’s 1,300 human-reviewed PRs/week, Hipp’s MC/DC ceiling, King’s structural invariants. Distilled to guardrails that are cheap, binary, immediate, and hard to route around.
