Hello, I'm Shrijith. I'm building git-lrc, an AI code reviewer that runs on every commit. It is free, unlimited, and source-available on Github. Star Us to help devs discover the project. Do give it a try and share your feedback for improving the product.
What does it mean to be a professional or to practice a profession?There is no one better to define this for us than, Admiral Rickover.
He truly walked the talk, and got the job done.
These are my takeaways from Admiral Rickover's essay: "Engineering in Practice".
What exactly is a profession?
Practicing a profession means - mastering theoretical knowledge in a field, and applying it to everyday problems.
A profession is "intellectual in content, practical in application".
The reasons why the professions receive respect
Traditionally - the professions have been seen with respect for these reasons:
- Esoteric content
- Useful to everyone
- Long & Costly preparation to practice
- Usually practiced by people of above average intelligence, education & character

With the expansion of knowledge, new professions started appearing.
"Engineering" is a relatively new profession.
From remote antiquity, we've had useful "skilled crafts".
The old crafts became engineering.
With the advent of science & massive energy sources it flourished.
A body of organized knowledge and procedures which require lengthy course of professional study emerged as a result of intense development.

Why
- 🤖 AI agents silently break things. Code removed. Logic changed. Edge cases gone. You won't notice until production.
- 🔍 Catch it before it ships. AI-powered inline comments show you exactly what changed and what looks wrong.
- 🔁 Build a habit, ship better code. Regular review → fewer bugs → more robust code → better results in your team.
- 🔗 Why git? Git is universal. Every editor, every IDE, every AI…
