I am 100% convinced that you are either trolling or that your comment is explicitly made in bad faith.

Besides a standard plain old rebrand - will there be any tangible benefit / gain from this move? Any reason for the rebrand to begin with?

I was having ads played even with the most expensive Spotify subscription a few years ago because ... feel this: The ads were CHOSEN BY THE END CLIENT, not Spotify itself as a legal entity. Needless to say that I am no longer using Spotify for a few years now and I highly encourage a mass exodus from the platform.

So, Microsoft products still are a garbage fire in March 2026. Fully aligned with the expectations

Music to my ears! Couldn't happen to a better company!

What do you mean "only the tests would take a few thousand days"?

Did running the test suite take 10 years? Like literally what exactly do you mean?

Some sort of an AI crash / bubble bursting is expected to be honest - now if that will take the rest of the US economy as well.... debatable. Any strong opinions on this?

> Europe just became a lower-cost extension of Silicon Valley.

Pretty much spot on. The UK included in the above definition of Europe as well.

Me personally: absolutely not - and I fundamentally do not understand the need for something like this. I would never use such a tool under any possible circumstance knowing what I know about the current technology underpinning these clankers.

These feels on par with Microsoft's push to shove Copilot down everyone's neck at every step possible whether we like/need it or not

Could you give only a few examples from those PLENTY of other places that are better? Like the first 10 that come to your mind, you made me very curious!

I was thiking the exact same thing: Either a troll or someone that should be actively ignored.

So ... will the crash be bigger that the one causing The Great Depression or smaller? Any bets?

Yes OK, but that was not the point that I was trying to make.

You are developing in a language + framework that you are not familiar with, without having any human feedback in the process at all - see where I am going with this?

Even with a quarter of a decade of experience you are still in what can basically be reffered to as uncharted territory.

So let me get this straight - you vibe code, make what you consider as necessary changes to the LLM-generated code, create PRs that get to be reviewed by another AI tool (Copilot), potentially make changes based on Copilot's suggestions and at the end, when you are satisfied with that particular PR you merge it yourself without having any other human reviewing it and then continue to the next PR.

Did I get that right or did I miss anything?

> in 2026 devs write 90% of the code using natural language, through an LLM.

That is literally not true - is the author speaking about what he personally sees at his specific workplace(s)?

If 90% of the code at any given company is LLM-generated that is either a doomed company or a company doesn't write any relevant code to begin with.

I literally cannot imagine a serious company in which that is a viable scenario.
