There is such a thing as too much software.

Indeed. Every line of code is like a liability, but managers suddenly decided to stack rank developers based on number of lines of code written, again, which is like ranking aircraft designs by how heavy they are.

Microservices have got all the attention, but at around the same time there existed the microlibraries fashion too.

And just like the other one, the people proposing those microlibraries knew what they were doing and had actually reasonable ideas. But masses of FAANG developers took it and run wild.

Anthropic eponymized Claude Shannon as the world's most powerful AI. Fabrizio the blogger named "a 7B model, trained on 1990s documentation" after Fabrice Bellard . Or perhaps his own name :)

Agree wit you. I like coding and am pretty good about tracking down edge cases to handle, but am so so slow compared to the good programmers. Until now, the company's money (my time) was better spent on other necessary work.

Don't tell the big investors that AI is conscious, they'd really get into role playing slave-masters.
