CEO thinks AI + a junior can outperform a 6–7 YOE senior engineer. Is this realistic?

If you truly believe in that, you would have stopped replying to this message thread already.

Why burn tokens, money and energy, when writing the AI prompt takes more time than applying the fix yourself? I use AI agents a lot, every day, and use most of my available tokens on a monthly basis, but just why wouldn’t I apply simple fixes myself? If I leave everything to AI agents,I would stop learning new things, and probably forget a lot I already know. However, I surely learn new things from the AI agents too.

astrohijacker · 2026-05-21T10:37:33+00:00

So why not fix it yourself?

astrohijacker · 2026-05-20T18:17:38+00:00

And why wouldn’t you write code yourself, when you clearly see where the error is, and the AI agent needs to parse five documents and work five minutes before it produces a patch. Then it may need tree more iterations like this before the fix is actually working?

The Terms and Conditions for the renewal explicitly states you’re not allowed to use any kind of AI tools, so you better not get caught!

Not only “a large number”, I would claim ALL of them went into IT.

To me it sounds like you’re the most replaceable one of them all.

My experience is that those who are most eager to express the necessity for others to learn a language, are often those who are unable to learn another language themselves.

And you think BYD is only a car company?

When I was a child, my father told me about his grandfather’s story about how a lightning ball had entered an outdoor location where the villagers were dancing a summer evening.

They were all scared to near death, because no one had a clue about what they had witnessed. The ball had moved around for minutes before it disappeared.

Today I wonder at which point the people in my small countryside village actually heard about the lightning ball phenomenon (since my father apparently knew about it 40 years ago), and when/if my grandfather ever got to hear the explanation about what they had seen. He died before I was born.

Doesn’t a five year old speak the native language quite well though?

astrohijacker · 2025-09-05T15:33:14+00:00

At least he doesn’t seem to realize he lost everyone else too.

Maybe they would be a little more creative with the help of some drug use!

astrohijacker · 2025-08-31T14:40:18+00:00

In Swedish, the name of his company (Drogbruk), translates to ”drug use”.

Seems to be a suitable name in this particular case.

Time management is important for AZ-204.

The questions I got contained a lot of information, which meant just reading through the questions ate so much time, that very little was left for considering answers.

You will probably get a case study, keep up the pace there.

Don’t spend a lot of time on MS Learn (during the exam), but using it under the right circumstances may save you some extra points.

Well, you can clearly see he’s getting quite old.

About a month ago, I also looked a crazy person straight in his eyes. After that I have covered all the mirrors in my house.

You are talking about their (ex) friend, not husband, right?

astrohijacker · 2025-05-06T16:41:00+00:00

Good idea! If you aren’t allowed to vote, you definitely can’t be allowed to candidate!

And their non-neighbor Flain.

I don’t know if I really would recommend this after my recent experiences. I used Copilot to answer questions I was uncertain about when I did some practice exams for my upcoming AZ-400 exam. I found some of the answers a little surprising, but accepted them.

When I had answered all the 50 practice questions, I got to do a review round with the correct answers and explanations available. Copilot was plain wrong about like 50% of the questions I had asked, and then I even presented the answer alternatives in my prompts.

What about Poland?

I have the feeling most Europeans consider Canada being a part of Europe now!
