My company has had a backlog thousands of developer-hours long for years. Maybe eventually somebody will get fired because we're not needed, but the LLM would have to actually 10x our productivity for us to get through the backlog in a year.
- ripped_britches 2y agoThat backlog almost certainly is just stuff you care about and not related to revenue Or someone would have been added to headcount to work on it
- sarchertech 2y agoNo one knows what will bring in revenue. It’s all just a guess and at most bigcos there are far more people who can create tickets than there are people who can close them. Every PM I’ve ever worked with had 10x more things they wanted to add than they had devs to add them.

- MyOutfitIsVague 2y agoYou're almost certainly right.
