I had a case in my job of an HR guy that was so bad a communication everything was super confusing and we always had issues and tension.
Once GPT came out he clearly just copy / pasted LLM output and I was very conflicted because it felt insulting but it was the first time I was actually able to understand what he intended to say...
I sadly would prefer LLM output over prompt because I'm pretty sure the prompting was a process with him he would prompt, get a bad LLM output, seeing the LLM wasn't understanding force him to clarify and we ended up with actually understandable content.
I agree with your first statement, this match what I've witness when I learned coding by doing my own private sever.
But I can ensure you that my motivation wasn't money, and I don't think it's the case for most starting projects. How ever, with success come temptation, also if you can easily justify getting some cash
I could hire some dev, I could get a better server, do some promotion, etc...
And then when money arrive it's hard not to feel all your hard work doesn't deserve a bit of the share.
To me the main issue is that there is no legitimate way to license blizz IP and give back a share.
TurtleWoW wasn't a simple "recycle the content and don't pay for retail" type, and those are actually a lot of work interesting take on the classic game.
It's a shame there are no good legal way to make a legit business to explore those ideas more seriously and for the "private server scene" to grow up in it.
I work on a ~9y old nodejs codebase, have none of those issues, we have 8 dependencies, this is fully resolved tree.
One to generate zip files, one for markdown parsing, connecting to postgres, etc... most of them have no sub dependencies.
We always reach out first to what nodejs lib have, try to glue ourself small specific piece of code when needed.
The app is very stable and we have very few frustrations I used to have before. Note that we used to have way more but bit by bit removed them.
Now I would whitelist anything from the deno std* lib, they did a great job with that, even if you don't use Deno, with what ever your runtime provide plus deno std you never need more than a few packages to build anything.
JS is doing pretty good if you are mindful about it.
