It's almost always a very bad choice. The only good reason for doing so is if you're already prisoner from having chosen IBM proprietary technology in the past and your team existing structure is already constructed around it. permalink source embed save save-RES parent report give award reply hide child comments 12 points 10 hours ago I'll take "who's never worked in a company with more than 6 people" for 100 permalink source embed save save-RES parent report give award reply hide child comments -3 points 1Pours ago My ass Every company under the sun is doing running and then monitoring their systems using an open source stack.

Writing 10 lines of code without frantically Googling for syntax, Stack Overflow solutions, or that one weird error message is basically the programming equivalent of farming your own food. Sure, it's not glamorous or efficient, but there's a simple dignity to it. Modern developers survive on a steady diet of copy-paste and API documentation. Those rare moments when you actually remember how to initialize an array or write a proper regex without digital assistance? Pure, honest work.

The circle of digital life! Your AI coding assistant confidently suggests improvements while secretly running on a diet of Stack Overflow answers from 2014. Meanwhile, those Stack Overflow answers need constant human updates because technology evolves faster than documentation. It's the ultimate ouroboros - AI pretending to be smarter than the humans who created the very content it regurgitates. Next time your AI suggests "optimizing" your perfectly functional code, remember it's just parroting some poor soul who got 47 upvotes seven years ago.
