Good read, I think Dave and I would get along just great. I’m also firmly in the camp of AI is great and we should all be using it but we need better measured outcome-oriented analysis of it. https://t.co/95wpGcAjU5

I strongly believe there are entire companies right now under heavy AI psychosis and its impossible to have rational conversations about it with them. I can't name any specific people because they include personal friends I deeply respect, but I worry about how this plays out.

I lived through the great MTBF vs MTTR (mean-time-between-failure vs. mean-time-to-recovery) reckoning of infrastructure during the transition to cloud and cloud automation. All those arguments are rearing their ugly heads again but now its... the whole software development industry (maybe the whole world, really).

It's frightening, because the psychosis folks operate under an almost absolute "MTTR is all you need" mentality: "its fine to ship bugs because the agents will fix them so quickly and at a scale humans can't do!" We learned in infrastructure that MTTR is great but you can't yeet resilient systems entirely.

The main issue is I don't even know how to bring this up to people I know personally, because bringing this topic up leads to immediately dismissals like "no no, it has full test coverage" or "bug reports are going down" or something, which just don't paint the whole picture.

We already learned this lesson once in infrastructure: you can automate yourself into a very resilient catastrophe machine. Systems can appear healthy by local metrics while globally becoming incomprehensible. Bug reports can go down while latent risk explodes. Test coverage can rise while semantic understanding falls. Changes happens so fast that nobody notices the underlying architecture decaying.

I worry.

Good architecture is not "more complex" than bad architecture.

[Allen Holub. https://linkedIn.com/in/allenholub @allenholub]

The fact that people can graduate from a CS program without ever learning Software Architecture, TDD, "soft skills" like communication and collaboration, &c., is really not okay. The university system is failing us.

The primary benefit of Agile is that you learn how screwed you are in time to do something about it.
