They still need 10% float and 1 year of bake time, so the rules are still doing some work for us

Veterans generally don’t need additional support or benefits. Disability is basically a second pension at this point. SCD for veterans under 45 has risen from 16% in 2008 to 39% in 2022 [0]. If you know any young veterans, then anecdotally you will see this is true. You can (and should) get partial disability for all kinds of aches and pains that in a normal career would go ignored.

tl;dr The best ~AI's~ LLM's slop asymptote is 10 hours.

Restated, if you let the best LLM chomp on a task for 10 hours, the output becomes slop.

* These tasks are of the type that you spend 1% of your SWE career working on.

* Each task is primed with an essay length prompt.

* You must play needle in the haystack for bugs in 10 hours worth of AI generated slop.

My experience trying AI coding at work and my observations of AI evangelists makes me believe AI coding is exclusively the purview of people who willing to handhold an AI at half pace to achieve the same result while working on software which amounts to greenfield/toy problems.

The danger of LLMs to thought work is enormously overstated and intentionally overhyped. AI : StackOverflow :: StackOverflow : graybeard in basement

It would be cool if AI kills all thought work, but what will actually happen is a undersupply of SWEs and a second golden age of SWE salaries in like 15y.

If you're buying an appliance, why have it manufactured by Ferrari? Modern cars, especially electric ones, are not exciting in any way as cars. Only agenda motivated e car foamers pretend otherwise. Electric cars are exclusively exciting as commodity transportation.

Even if their negative impact is a fantasy, they provide no benefit. There is no reason we shouldn't ban them.

This, but without sarcasm, and with mostly peaceful violence.
