    AI rapidly increases speed of the first 90% of software development. But still, you’ll have to do the remaining 90% yourself.

            @emocoder Yep, posted about this recently, my company is pushing us to go crazy AI first (whatever that means, it depends on the day and sleep quality of the C - levels).

            They are the best cases of dunning kruger I have ever met:

                @emocoder And it's much harder to do that second 90% if you don't have all the mental context of how you made the first 90%.

                It's like playing a game and skipping through the first level straight to the second. Sure you'll start sooner but you won't arrive with all the lessons the first level would have taught you.

                  @emocoder Right? It's that 80:20 rule turned into its worst self. Now the humans *only* do the hard parts and on a foundation of inscrutable AI slop to boot.

                    @YvanDaSilva @emocoder My employer is attempting to use AI for absolutely everything, having neglected to build any habits around testing, architecture, etc. We've built no guardrails for ourselves and now we're letting the bot do most of the driving.

                      @emocoder
                      I have heard the original 90% + 90% joke 2 previous times and it was always hilarious too.
                      Both guys told it as "old soviet joke: ..." And were in fact born in Russia.

                      Turns out it was Tom Cargill at Bell Labs!

                        If you skip directly to the higher levels in games, you won't have the tools, skills, experience, hit points, weapons, or other things you would have gained along the way.

                        It will be a slaughter.

                        .

                        (It will be them slaughtering you.)

                            @emocoder the funny things is that Drupal did exactly this too

                            There have been many claims over the decades
