I’m awaiting the fireworks for when they use AI to patch the Cobol systems still used by the banks.

Just keep writing on the same line ? Fixes everything

Exactly, just run your magical new code in a minifier and problem solved! It’ll be just as speedy as the real deal!

Ok… just for you, I will extend the saying to be “every line and column is a liability”.

It sounds like you’re suggesting single-letter variable/function/class names everywhere

Bill Atkinson and his -2,000 lines of code would like a word

Even then, so the theory goes… every line of code is a liability, it is only emergent properties of the system as a whole that makes it an asset. It takes but one line to destroy it’s value, and in general a 2kloc codebase is more valuable than a 4kloc codebase, if they do the same thing. QED? :)

There’s a ticket in the backlog. We’ll get to it next sprint (aka never).

A recent job I had, Product kept saying this over 2ish years…
…at the end of the stint and with ~2 weeks until launch, they laid off all but one person on the team (some 12 engineers or so, myself included).
I often wonder how much shit that person is wading through leading up to launch and post-launch fighting fires.

The AI will detech the debt.

It’s the only plan form all the teams that the company actually executes!
