This post makes it sound like an engineers role is only the collection and filling of feature gaps, but leaves completely out that an engineer is also responsible for the feasibility of a feature. If you get a request for a feature, but you are aware of the current system's limitations, it is your job do come up with a solution which fits into the business sides given frame. But nowadays engineers have been so much drilled that showing resistance to management is portrayed as a lack of skill and not a lack of trust from management into their staff. And when it is clear that your management actually doesn't clear it just tells you how much of the self proclaimed mission is the real motivation behind these people. If the acceptance criteria of management does not meet your principles you might not be the right fit and if, in my opinion, the ac of management are mostly based on the next promise made to investors or by sales to prospects, their goal is to make money and not to develop a quality product.

I would be interested to see how exactly the agent helped. How was it used, where did it lead to the given improvement and in how far would it have taken a human to come to the same solution.

The text feels incoherent to me and lacks some nuance.

It starts about cutting costs by the choice of infrastructure and goes further to less resource hungry tools and cheaper services. But never compares the cost of these things. Do I save actually the upgrade to a bigger server by using Go and sqlite over let's say Python and postgres? Or does it not even matter when you have just n many users. Then I do not understand why at one point the convenience of using OpenRouter is preferred over managing multiple API keys, when that should be cheaper and a cost point that could increase faster than your infrastructure costs.

There are some more points, but I do not want to write a long comment.

The building in the graphic looks like the International Congress Centrum in Berlin.

Here a pic for comparison: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internationales_Congress_Centr...

Isn't the example in [0] already used on various sites? I at least used it at least on the humble bundle site and saw it on othes sites too.

I started paying around 250 Euro when starting my study at the university (2009). This term I had to pay aroung 290 Euro.

The fee for the TU Berlin is composed of:

Verwaltungsgebühr (gem. § 2 Abs. 7 BerlHG) (administrative fee)

50,00 €

Beitrag zur Studierendenschaft (Contribution to the student body)

8,70 €

Beitrag zum Studentenwerk (Contribution to the Student Services)

48,77 €

Beitrag zum Semesterticket (Contribution to the semester ticket)

179,40 €

Beitrag zum Sozialfonds zum Semesterticket (Contribution to the Social Fund for Semesterticket)

3,50 €

= 290,37 €

Of course it is still much cheaper than to study in other countries. But the fees are growing and you have to pay for the semester ticket, which is essentially a ticket for all public transportation in Berlin, even though you wouldn't need it.
