Works going full AI crazy. 10x the amount of projects, only half work

i disagree with this take, when i type code out i start to see flaws in my own logic and am able to adapt it because i can start to see the bigger picture as it comes together. also when i start to see code smells i can decide to change my approach and refactor it to fit the problem better.

AI just gives you what you ask sometimes. sure it does it quickly but it doesn't care about those logic bugs while introducing more through misunderstanding of intent. good luck finding it in review, especially when you have 10 PRs of 5-10k lines to review in a day because your manager has lost their mind and other developers appear to forget libraries exist. oh and you had feedback on one of those PRs? well lets just regenerate a complete new codebase and start from scratch.

i forget who said it but they mentioned it's a DDOS on human intelligence and energy and i really have to agree.

Test environments are for wimps!

my work we had test, stage and prod. test was very unstable as every merge auto deployed, so stage was semi stable where you would push changes you verified in test. then one day they decided to remove the stage environment. we have no data in test, other teams never passed data there, so we setup a semi production environment that has data and cost 10x as much. now they want to setup a stage environment to save costs but they don't want to call it stage because that was bad and was too expensive. so they came up with a new name and are making everyone update to push data there. honestly i can't take watching these people be praised for their innovation and promoted to make more of these shit decisions. the world's gone mad and the madder you are the more you're rewarded.

But I like the secret handshakes of the Illuminati

Gates made his money off monopolizing technology. You can find memos where he specifically leveraged his contacts with manufacturers to ignore specifications (which Microsoft helped specify) so FOSS like Linux wouldn't work properly.

I truly believe in a world without Microsoft that todays software would be much safer, private and advanced by quite a few years.

Gates only became a philanthropist after he married, there's probably a very good reason she left, even excluding the Epstein connections.

Hot Cheetos don't taste the same

could be skimpflation. company's have been changing ingredients slowly to lower the cost of ingredients to save on cost. doing it very slowly over years they end up saving money and no one really notices the changes.

if you can find an old ingredient/nutritional list from a few years ago you can compare ingredient order to see if it's changed

They really hate artists

when they have no actual skills outside of gaslighting they end up seeing this as the same they see an expert. they can't validate either way correctness and correctness doesn't really matter to them as long as they make money.
