3 years later, I now do believe we're at a point where it's possible to release a "years of effort" software project in weeks to months, and that people are actually doing that & it's not really coming from the LinkedIn posters, who seem to be constantly flapping between models for trivial issues

if all those LLM boosters really got "10-50x more productive", well, it's been a few years right? so they should have each released a few "this is my life's work" pieces of software either that or they were just lying. who can say

Last month I shipped about as many commits as my entire day job's org chart did, and while it was very doable, it was also possibly the hardest I've worked on software in years

I have been broadcasting that observation internally It's incredibly hard work. I'm extremely glad things have normalized a bit, because the euphoria period had everyone pushing themselves way too hard
