  • Shift-left eliminated the QA role.

    Now we have AI generated shit code, with devs that don’t understand the low level details of both the language, and the specifics of the generated code.

    So we basically have content entry (ai inputs) and extremely shitty QA bundled into the “developer” role.

    As a 20 year veteran of the industry, people keep asking me if I think AI will make developers obsolete. I keep telling them “maybe some day, but today’s LLMs are not it. The AI bubble is going to burst, and a few legit use cases will make it through”







  • In general, digital privacy invasions have been very successful because of attrition.

    Most people don’t care, those that do hold out, but then every competitor does the same and you no longer have any real alternatives. Eventually, the hold outs need to replace [car in this case] and the sting of the objectiknable change has faded, and they just move on.

    Rinse and repeat.

    We lost the fight for meaningful net neutrality, basic digital privacy rights, broadband limits, etc.

    They’ll win this one too. Eventually. Your phones and IoT with microphones are already doing it.
