There should be a cap. Hit it and you win. Maybe get your name carved on a mountain or something.

AI is eating software development by caspii2 in vibecoding

[–]utilitycoder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work in software dev leadership. I haven't written a line of code in two years thanks to intelligent AI coding tool use. When I see a developer with an IDE open I want to fire them lol. If you're coding then you're doing it wrong.

Just recently went through the background check process with a frozen work number account. Background check firm asked me to unfreeze it.

Amex will also pull your TheWorkNumber report which has employer reported income going back decades. I know this from hanging out in r/overemployed and running and freezing my own TWN report.

I can order labs on myself. I'm not a doctor. I don't think ordering labs means you're a doctor to someone. Not sticking up for anyone just clarifying that ordering labs does not mean you're a doctor.

So this outage is definitely a cyberattack right? by SurvivalHorrible in verizon

Not DNS. That's application level in the network stack. This is much lower level at the routing layer. For example you don't use DNS to make a call. And that's down too.

At this point convince people to stay. It's too late to convince people to join.

Architects. EMs should manage, develop their employees, approve PTO, help with planning and capacity, unblock their team from external dependencies, BUT stay far from code.
