The problem with this take is the assertion that LLMs are going to take the place of secretaries in your analogy. The reality is that replacing junior devs with LLMs is like replacing secretaries with a network of typewriter monkeys who throw sheets of paper at a drunk MBA who decides what gets faxed.

You are describing a state of software development that has existed since the introduction of punch cards.

Practically every business I've worked at has had some internal library or repository of commonly used behavior that can be included in day to day projects.

There's Finamp, a music client for Jellyfin with offline playback. I've not used it personally yet, but with Spotify ratcheting up prices again I'm in the process of switching to self-hosting my music library. When that's up and running it's at the top of my list for Android clients.

It's a diagram of states where certain rights are being suppressed.

Top circle is abortion, bottom left is voting, bottom right is LGBTQ+.

Rollout policies are the answer, and CrowdStrike should be made an example of if they were truly overriding policies set by the customer.

It seems more likely to me that nobody was expecting "fingerprint update" to have the potential to completely brick a device, and so none of the affected IT departments were setting staged rollout policies in the first place. Or if they were, they weren't adequately testing.

Then - after the fact - it's easy to claim that rollout policies were ignored when there's no way to prove it.

If there's some evidence that CS was indeed bypassing policies to force their updates I'll eat the egg on my face.

PHP is better than Javascript these days.

Fucking PHP.

The only thing JS really has going for it is ease of execution, since any browser can run your code... though the ubiquity of Python is closing that gap.

API access was only half the problem. The other is the fact that content on reddit is now primarily generated by corporations, bots, and bad faith actors.

Going there for specific threads (e.g. help posts in programming subs) seems okay-ish, but scrolling the front page is a doomed endeavor at this point... not much different from Facebook or Instagram.

Did you know that HOLOGRAM is an anagram for GLAM HOOR?
