I think the question here is: do the laws of economics allow it?

I think this comment (and TFA) is really just painting with too broad of strokes. Of course there are going to be people in tech hubs that are very pro-AI, either because they are working with it directly and have had legitimately positive experiences or because they work with it and they begrudgingly see the writing on that wall for what it means for software professionals.

I can assure you, living in Seattle I still encounter a lot a AI boosters just as much as I encounter AI haters/skeptics

Wow, this describes _exactly_ what I've started to see from some PMs.

Thanks for the response, that does make more sense!

Walmart builds their buildings to last only 15-20 years and then builds a new facility.

I'm really curious about the 15-20 year statistic that the author mentions and I was disappointed not to see a source on that claim. I couldn't find much from official sources after a quick search. That seems like an incredibly short lifespan, especially for buildings so large.

Great article nonetheless.

Its likely they are referring to [0] where Coinbase announced that they were going to be discouraging internal focus on "broader societal issues" and "political causes".

Unrelated to the contract itself but that's probably a couple more call to action buttons than needed.

The dark text boxes can be fixed by doing a bit of configuration editing[0], not ideal I'll admit but it goes a long way to making it usable on linux.
