Loving this: "The Copilot Delusion"

Quotes:
"Copilot isn’t that. It’s just the ghost of a thousand blog posts and cocky stack-overflow posts whispering, "Hey, I saw this once. With my eyes. Which means it's good code. Let’s deploy it." Then vanishing when the app hits production and the landing gear won’t come down."

"The problem isn’t just laziness. It’s degradation. Engineers stop exploring. Stop improving. Stop caring. One more layer of abstraction. One more lazy fetch call inside a render loop. Eventually, you’re living in a cathedral of technical debt, and every user pays."

"At that point, you’re not working with a copilot. You’re playing Russian roulette with a loaded dependency graph."

"But even if you're just slapping together another CRUD app for some bloated enterprise, you still owe your users respect. You owe them dignity."
