Based on ~5 years of professional programming experience, I’m very confident there is a strong correlation between programming quality and commit rates. (Though Goodhart’s law may be a danger)
That’s probably true. Can you think of anything that I could do that would correlate with programming quality and that doesn’t depend on other people? I.e., I could say get at least two GH repositories with >= 1 stars, but that relies on other people, so doesn’t seem process oriented enough for a NYR.
I am not sure if there is much correlation between the programming quality and commit rates.

I totally agree that quality programming tends to lead to higher commit rates. It’s the other direction I am dubious about, like you say.
