    "With AI, I can replace 20 software engineers with 1 'prompt engineer'"

    A few months later: "plain text editor that was rewritten by AI to be more than that with RCE vulnerability".

    (but congratulations to Microsoft for managing to put a remote execution vuln in something that should never have anything 'remote', like notepad)

              @reiddragon @marado it's even worse because abusive relationships between people are mostly based off socioeconomic dependencies and pressure.

              • The consumers ain't forced to use either under threat of violence, homelessness or even death!

                • Neither are corporations!

                This applies more to software than people, but fundamentally, most humans find change scarry, and find comfort in familiarity. And after decades of Windows being the default choice, often the only one people knew of, to the point computers running Windows was as much a fact of life as the sky being blue, now they're struggling with the idea of change more than anything. Deep down they know the windows ship is beyond fucked and waiting to blow up, but they don't want to accept that and keep making up excuses to stay, and as time goes on and those excuses are proven wrong, pride also becomes a factor where ditching the burning ship also means admitting you were wrong before and every psychologist can tell you there's nothing the human brain hates doing more than that, and I'm sure you've observed that second mechanism with Trump voters.

                tl;dr: humans are still just monkeys

                  @reiddragon @marado Yeah but then one invests a few minutes and familiarizes oneself...
