AI coding has made CI a bottleneck, so we reworked ours to keep up

    Here's my constant question:

    Everyone's going so fast that they keep hitting walls. Review, CI, product asking for things, whatever.

    Why have we not seen an improvements in products?

    While every post and thread feels like a 90's wall street office, the new android and iphone ship with fewer features than usual. No indie guys come up with a linux-sized alternative OS. Switch 2 remains unhacked. Windows takes 3 seconds to show the right click menu.

    Is everyone just running full speed in circles or something?

      Yes. The lack of actual tangible results is how you know that the claims of increased productivity are false. We haven't seen a bunch of new useful apps (or anything else for that matter), which we would have if LLMs actually worked.

        What do you mean by llms not working? Did you use one recently?
