Okay. I actually messed up, because I should have said "zero attention to detail" - or at least close to it.
I'm of the unpopular opinion that "shipping" is overrated. It's in my opinion fomo to ship early if you didn't do severe quality control. This makes me slow af, but I avoid debt this way: do the work now, so that you don't have to do it later. Works except for when you have no idea what you're doing.
When Theranos went down, I was hoping we'd see the end of fake-it-till-make-it. But humanity is addicted to this. Both on the producing and the receiving end. We need to have dreams then get rekt while living that dream so we can move on to the next dream. Substance... is gone.
Much of the AI use we see is unsubstantial. The cases where it is substantial, you won't see, because it was just one cog in a giant machine. And that's what we're dealing with. Some noob that has no fucking clue what they're doing so they're letting an LLM do it for them. If they had an idea and/or actual standards, you'd never see the slop.
