I know that. Bumping GHC can still be relatively painful. Some language stacks are meaningfully easier on dependencies (not you Python), but can give you some other headaches (yes, you Python, damn you). Every PL in one way or another has some warts and ugly parts.
It seems the job of a senior software engineer these days is to make fun of programming languages on HN pointing out their flaws, while simultaneously keeping an eye, waiting on agents doing "thinking".
- whateveracct 3mo agowhoa buddy, i'm a senior eng but i don't wait on agents. ew! i could probably do my job and get passing (or better) perf reviews using nothing but fundamental-mode and the compiler.
- iLemming 3mo ago> i don't wait on agents. ew! You're conflating "what I do" with "what my job is." A bunch of my friends and colleagues are literally getting paid and forced today to use agents. There's no break from it unless they quit their jobs. I'm not saying I'm eagerly content and happy with this bullshit, alas, it is what it is.
- whateveracct 3mo agooh that is a shame
