I don't want to believe this, lol.
Did you typo an extra 0?!
Well said, the only flaw is the unfortunate realization that "I understand things and then apply my ability to formulate solutions" is rarely required, how many zombie corps are still roaming these days? Judging by how…
I really don't like the lang itself but nobody will deny it has a very strong ecosystem and stdlib for handling around 95% of many well-solved problems you are likely to encounter.

To be fair to this example it was also an tough situation: imagine MS trying to release W10 Classic with W11 still in prod! E.g. the older ver may well be better, and even what most users want, but pulling off the…
Sure but games are entertainment, not software, if we're being pedantic. You can't really map b2b enterprise software tropes onto b2c entertainment products, as ActiBlizz would discover.
Agreed though I'm biased. It will be interesting as orgs flatten to see what will keep all the remaining "superhuman AI-powered all-in-one" employees from just making their own shop.
I appreciate this is satire, or marketing, but I'll engage: in this scenario how is the SaaS generating millions if anyone can just prompt their own?
Bytes + FSM, don't overcomplicate unless your salary depends on the solution.
Good lord, thank you. I'm a huge fan of LLMs, they've replaced enormous amounts of toil for me but they are not 'my job'. If you walk to the kitchen and fry up an egg are you now a master chef? What's the difference…
Aye, it never happens but it does sell a lot of books ;) I don't think we'll reach this promised land™ until incentives re-align. Treating software as an assembly line was obviously The Wrong Thing judging by the…
> How the software is supposed to work, down to minuscule detail. So... coding. :P
Ownership means you have real skin in the corp, your payout goes up or down, hopefully somewhat proportional to your hard work. 'Ownership' is taking on those same stresses and responsibilities without any of the…
It must be tough running a Euro company, your own taxes end up funding your competitors! > European cultural hostility to business Is that the real issue? I thought it was that trying to compete in such a stacked…

You shouldn't skip the tutorial
The root issue is that the committe has no incentive to improve the language when the current situation enriches its key members, C++ is just the vehicle they co-opted to sell books, or consulting, on solving problems…
I wish you were a writer too, I'd love to read that book!
Same, it still feels like too much of a grift for VC monies to me. Not a hater, though it's fun to run Doom in a browser tab... just can't see any business value in 99% of its ecosystem, especially with the drift away…
Software 'engineering' is too abstract, yet imagine the outrage if every new highway had a 20km/h limit...
The final piece (writing code) eating more than 10% of your dev time "for decades" is a good indicator to find a new career imo.
No PMs is the real growth hack.
Awesome, thanks. Does C++ have a good async ('coroutine') story for io_uring yet?
Looks like a nice weekend project, who would actually fund this kind of hacking??
