<p>>I kinda just expect it to be all “AWS” trust.<p>This would be very unwise from security standpoint. Internal access to customer stuff is granular and made hard for internal staff to gain, to minimize chances of screw up intentional or not.</p>

<p>"Once those additional vaccines are off the "routine" schedule, they'll be pulled by the suppliers, because it eliminates exemption from lawsuits"<p>Why is this bad? From one of the threads - "There IS scrutiny on vaccines, by the scientific and medical community - your "scrutiny" (as presumably neither a PhD in a relevant field or MD) is not valuable or relevant. There is decades of research that says that currently recommended vaccines are safe and effective."<p>OK, then there won't be grounds for lawsuits or lawsuits will be easily dismissed.<p>"you can be sure there'll be a bunch of crackpot right-wingers trying to prove each one is "bad" and they'll disappear sooner or later" - This logic can be applied to literally any product, be it a medicine, a vaccine, or any consumer good. Somehow pharma companies are able to sell any other drug without going into bankruptcy.</p>

<p>"But accepting the full S3Client here ties UploadReport to an interface that’s too broad. A fake must implement all the methods just to satisfy it."<p>In NET, one would simply mock one or two methods required by the implementation under the test. If I'm using Moq, then one would set it up in strict mode, to avoid surprises if unit under test starts calling something it didn't before.</p>

<p>Documentation is actually better with LLMs. In 2010s+ majority of the docs is autogenerated doxygen and alike slop or some hello world in marketing speak. Absolutely useless. The ability of LLMs to hoover up everything related to the problem at hand improved my experience manyfold.</p>

<p>It's 9am in the morning. I login to my workstation and muddle my way through the huge enterprise code base which doesn't fit into any model context window for the AI tool to be useful (and even if it did, we can't use any random model due to compliance and proprietary and whatnot).<p>I have thousands deadlines which are suddenly coming due and a bunch of code which is broken because some poor soul under the same pressure put something that "works" in. And it worked, until it didn't, and now it's my turn in the barrel.<p>Is this the joy?<p>I'm not complaining, I'm doing it for the good money.</p>
