I have data scientists that work for me that have this problem. I'd rather that everyone I hire wrote the kind of code I want out of the box, but for lots of reasons it's not always possible. I have tried enforcing frameworks and ended up wasting more money trying to get people to change their workflow. A developer or data scientist (even an inexperienced one) is expensive enough that $30/mo is nothing if it makes them more productive. I'd guess this is what the company is banking on.
(You'll see I made another comment where i say i don't like their pricing model, this is a matter of principle because I don't believe in just trying to wrap a program in SaaS in order to get more money without offering something beyond "you can run my code if you pay me". But the cost / benefit is still easy to justify)
- oshams 5y agoExactly, developer time is extremely valuable! Plus, even on an individual level wouldn't you rather spend less time doing something a machine can make a reasonably good guess for you? My internal heuristic has been anything that can be easily guessed is something AI + PL techniques should do for you. I think developers in the future will have way more mental free space because of this trend towards accelerating developer tooling with AI.
