I just quit my job. We have a dotnet application running that I didn't write, but I'm the only one who knows a little dotnet, so I took care of it. My handover will be this, or "learn dotnet".

Learning .NET is easy, the hard part is understanding the business. You can buy books or training for whatever language, but once the people who thought up the logic of the system leave, all you can do is archeology.

I just watched the episode of The Office where Michael drives his car into the lake because the GPS told him to turn right. LLMs will brrr you right into the lake and it will be your fault for trusting it

As long as insurance covers it, do we really need to care? If there's a big problem, insurers' lobby groups will get the law changed
