- bombcar 2y agoSalesforce has tons of features, but at its root it's Microsoft Access Online for 80% of the companies that use it.
- cruffle_duffle 2y agoIsn’t the fix supposed to be some senior leader writes the prompt “make the code faster and less over engineered” and the Rune Goldberg contraption comes to life and echos back “eye eye captain!”. Thirty seconds later, problem solved! That is my understanding of these AS/GI agentic wizards anyway. They’ll fire the rest of their staff right after the thing fixes all the slowness. You don’t even need to define “slowness” in your prompt! It just knows what “slowness” means and fixes it for you! It’s truly remarkable technology. Those primadonna devs will be out on their ass any day now. All hail our agentic future!
- dvsfish 2y agobloat, feature creep, insistence upon itself, are all tantamount to this economic system. Without them, there isn't enough for everyone to do. True innovation is rare or prohibitively expensive these day since most of the low hanging fruit has already been picked. Currently many efforts are driven by some level of leadership trying to justify their continued employment. This isn't just a salesforce problem.
