I think it's not elitist at all to say that people with no CS education (whether academic, self taught, or acquired over time) should probably not be considered when writing documentation or release notes. If you generate AI slop web d

It means "you're moving the target". The meaning is essentially that someone claims I can't hit the target, and then after I hit the target, moves it further away and keeps saying I didn't hit it.

This is phrased like you're moving the goal post, and that's not really a good way to have a discussion about this. I think this sucks, because my gut tells me it sucks, the same way AI in everything sucks -- it just sounds kinda
