I found the microsoft development experience to be terrible aside from win32. Yes, win32 lasts forever and outlived every attempt to replace it. There's been no end in half-baked APIs such as winforms, direct video, etc. I once had a p

I can second this. I’ve never had a problem writing short scripts and glue code in stuff ive mastered. In places I actually need help, I’m finding it slows me down.

Pretty crazy and no doubt a lot of these patterns will find their way in more subtly. The total global ad revenue for online is massive at nearly 1T. Some large fraction of that (say 10%) will need to shift to AI for these bots to keep the

The message with AI from execs is that you have to go fast (rush!). Quality of work drops when you rush. You forget things, don’t dwell on decisions and consequences, just go-fast-and-break-things.

Googles search revenue comes from ads which depend somewhat on the quality and speed of the search result. Yeah, a better LLM could do it but a better pagerank with NLP that actually works again could do it.
