Background & analysis
The developer of karasu, an architecture-diagram tool, keeps design decisions as Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) under docs/adr/. He began the practice on day one of the project in March 2026, and eight months later the directory held 495 ADRs. Development is done largely with Claude Code, and 80% of the commits that added an ADR (395 of 495) carry a Claude Code co-author line. In July 2026 he ran a controlled experiment in which an agent was asked to redo an already-rejected proposal, in order to identify the conditions under which ADRs actually work. So far, no full results from the experiment have been published.

How is heat calculated?About the methodHide
Heat counts how many independent sources covered a story in the last 48 hours: one source counts once no matter how many posts it published, decaying with a 24-hour half-life. What ranks first is what many people are talking about.
