    Wowza, nobody had foreseen this happening! Well, apart from everyone in the tech sector, and all who were laid off in almost every sector, and everyone else… ahh forget it!

    This is what happens when increased velocity is demanded. It takes at least as long to verify that the code works well as it would have for me to write and verify. I can pump out a ton of code with an LLM, but if you want quality it’ll take me just as long as 2 years ago, probably longer because of my decreased practice lately

      It was established decades ago that

      It’s harder to read code than to write it.

      and

      Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the first place. Therefore, if you write the code as cleverly as possible, you are, by definition, not smart enough to debug it.

      Having lots of code appear out of thin air isn’t really of any help in making functional systems.

      yeah they are product managers who can’t understand why their shit requirements are rejected by the dev team and now have access to some tools that will inflate their Denning Kruger syndrom by several orders of magnitude.

      And them, boom, production.

    Relying on “AI” is just like shooting yourself in the foot while on angeldust.

    It doesn’t hurt now, but you lost your employe… I mean foot, and you still need to clean it up.

    We’re deep into a “move fast and break things cycle” which absolutely means a lot of testing is happening in prod because ev

    I get it… If the competition has features you don’t have you’ll lose business now. Telling your customers to submit a ticket so the team can quickly fix it or ignore you is kinda the normal now.

    What are you gonna do, vibe code your own solution?
