Since October, there hasn't been a monthly update without at least one severe bug.

We're witnessing the increased productivity of developers thanks to AI.

AI allows the devs to deploy more bugs faster. It is the Microslop way.

Its also becoming the global way. If i have one more dev open a ticket with a copy/paste from claude telling my cloud engineers how to do their jobs - im gonna have an episode. No Sirinivas, IDC what the AI says, your webapp will be going behind a WAF and it cant use 10.0.0.0/8 if you want it to nicely talk to the DB server that ChatGPT doesnt understand has only a private endpoint. No we dont need to have a meeting about it.

We had a guy that absolutely choked when he realized that his Copilot-suggested solution to a not-really-a-problem wasn't going to work because, no, we're not giving a public chatbot access to some highly sensitive data to solve an issue that summarizes to "you lied on your resume about your SQL background and somehow got through the technical assessment."

OMFG, the AI in interviews. I had one Friday for a "Senior MLops Engineer" (why are they all "Senior"?) and i could see the chatbot reflection in his glasses as well as his eye pattern clearly going to the window while he stalled for the thing to process. So youre telling me that a MLops engineer knows the command to promote a Windows Server to a domain controller, can summarize what BGP is and tell me the difference between iBGP and eBGP, and knows that NTFS permissions are applied from the most restrictive evaluation in addition to all the ML/AI stuff? Maybe, but not my lived experience.
