It’s just been so long since going from ‘head to code’ has been the hard part for me. I’d imagine you have to be very unfamiliar for this to be useful.

Per-token billing will be lit

You’d have to be really terrible at writing code for anything like this to be ‘easier’.

I couldn’t possibly disagree with every point in this post any more. Rust is bad because.. people update things? What?

I get why it might not matter depending on the work you do, but if non-trivial work is required just to keep your code building due to fast non-backward compatible changes in libraries you use, that might introduce hesitation.

Isn't that the point of semantic versions though? You can lock it if you need to.

It really feels like they’re just reaching for Rust and don’t know it yet

If your company hires more scrum masters and project managers than engineers, this is where you’re heading.

I never understood why companies adopted diamond shaped org charts where middle management out-numbered people doing the work

Because middle management convinced them it was a good idea to do so!

This is the future that they warned us about.

Went looking for a reason to be angry, didn’t find one (quite the opposite!) but meh… just protest anyway lol

When you read the article and realize that they’re actually complaining about a raise.

Both are a hot mess in practice. I could imagine a scenario where this ‘flexibility’ in not knowing what you’re building ahead of time may be valuable but I’ve never lived one. I’d rather think it through?
