They are known are engineers pushing features that bloated product management folks keep pushing so they can justify their jobs on LinkedIn.

I'm not sure why this particular industry is so abysmal at making things even semi-reliable after decades of research, educated workforces, and loads of cash.

It sucked with a CEO as well

One might question your perspective if you ever thought they were serious.

I dunno, I wish Android had a cohesive backup strategy the way iOS does. iPhone is terrible but losing your phone and switching to a new is insanely easy, with all state back to exactly how it was before.

You would think so. But it seems all that everyone is obsessed with is increasing the velocity of enshitification in the hopes of becoming the next papa Elon

I would think it’s much more religious to think that consciousness could ever exist on silicon substrate alone.

All of these debates were had in the 60s. But everyone forgot them.

How does this relate to socialist programs? Any sufficiently large org basically ends up looking the same way.

The code is the information. If you need binders of info then it wasn’t codified

Is it really a failure of automation? This is just improperly validated automation.

Skills are lazy loaded. AGENTS.md is not. It’s stupid regardless.

COBRA seems useless af. Often better to just get a personal plan.

ArgoCD?

“If you can afford it” is not efficient. It’s merely priority queue vs FIFO wherein it is decided that some folks get to skip lines based on some arbitrary merit.

If it were efficient it would clear the queue with max throughput. This is not so.

Patents shouldn’t exist.

With all of these developer productivity metrics, perhaps developer teams can also measure productivity metrics of management up to the top.

When it is decided that a management resource such as a line manager, director, or even C-level exec are causing detriment to organizations they can be put on performance improvement plans —which involves developers simply ignoring anything and everything that person says until they stop speaking nonsense.

This is the way.

Why people continue to treat AI as though it’s not just an intern or recent grad? That alone will solve 90% of problems people have.

How can you vote out incompetence when only the incompetent gravitate toward controlling the levers of power?

What is making these spread? Is it lack of forest management / controlled burns, etc?

Haven’t used Android in forever but…Isn’t ADB the only way to do real backups?

surely there is some published copy-paste set of sane defaults noobs can use to get started. at least i hope.

what is this obsession with bun and js in general? with all this vibe coding why not fix the reasons we needed js in the first place

Infinite money is worthless. modern finance is bunk and infinite currency chasing finite energy is all there is.

There are no bounds to human stupidity

The demand isn’t that high for so much effort?

Is there any kind of solution to saving everything that is cut or copied to some kind of temporary history so you can paste things you copied/cut like an hour ago?

Welp, back to enshitification as much as possible.

And companies grease the levers of power to not care what most Americans say. It is the American way.

Not sure about lastpass, but you can save passkeys to 1password. Works just fine.

Dorsey needs to just sit down and retire into obscurity.

That doesn’t seem like much
