Jokes aside, I've grown to love "XYZ in Minecraft". It's like a newer (still 2011 was a long time ago!) version of "Doom on XYZ".

I am so tired of hearing about this false equivalency. Compilers are deterministic, their outputs are well understood and they’re transparent.
LLMs are not.
Write lots of code now and statistically look great, while the impact won’t be felt for a much larger range of time.
With the job search and whatnot then yeah, caring becomes a lot more important. That’s true.
If I ever got an AI interviewer at a company I was interested in working for long term, it would be dead on arrival. Interviewing is a two way street. Candidates glean info about their possible teammates and work experience from the interviewer, just like the interviewer gets a read on the candidate.
Also if I am having someone join my team, I’d want to get to know them first. I’m sure the goal isn’t to have this replace every interview panel but it feels icky to me outside of a seasonal job.
I do need a good backup solution though, that’s one thing I’m missing.
There’s also the fact that they’re known for dogfooding heavily, I imagine that contributes to it a lot.
If you have buggy software, people don’t use it if there are alternatives. They don’t care about the code but hard to maintain, buggy code will eventually translate to users trying other products.
