@LianaBrooks @robyn yes and yes since day 1

@cstross @ainmosni but this kind of mistakes benefits the “brand” because it creates visibility. Everybody shares abs points to the obvious mistake and by doing so meets the good old “every advertisement is good advertisement even bad one as long as your name is visible” I wouldn’t be surprised if it was deliberate to let it go to prod this way

@tante I remember all those headache inducing non sense conversations with directors, C-something dudes, managers when trying to define "software productivity". No one could agree and, despite all good sense and examples, they mostly stuck to the good old "productivity is how many lines of code are written and software is pushed to prod".

None of this includes meaningful software, quality code, user impact, etc. so yes spaghetti code generators will improve a certain definition of productivity
