This should not be new.

Make your shit work. Make it work well. Don't fuck with a thing that's working as desired.

In this way, you'll make everyone's lives at least a little easier.

This should be a mandatory teaching to anyone who wants to use the moniker of "engineer".

The "ENOUGH" is the essential word you didn't include. They don't care about "good". They care about your money and the least quality they can provide to continue to get it.

Blame the patrons for demanding more with little care to the quality.

I mostly gave up on software development roles in business when the vast majority of developers and, particularly management and executives, made clear that they couldn't give a fuck about craftsmanship. It was just about shipping, good, bad or otherwise.

AI in software development predates on that appetite for MORE at any cost. When the business doesn't really care about quality, because, let's be honest, most don't, this is what you get. You get massive volumes of garbage.

Personally, I'll take the DSA over both. However, the population is unlikely to accept Sam's. And both political parties would sooner collude than accept the DSA as a modern inheritor of American Liberalism.

Please also consider infectious disease and famine throughout the world.

You can hide from the temperature. You will have a harder time hiding from war and disease.

We would, quite literally, be cooked. That'd leave us with summers around 140-150F.
