It made me wince when Android did away with its dessert based codenames and now they're just 'Android 12' etc. It really went corporate after that direction.

I'd love standarized modules to unscrew and separate the "smart" part just like a desktop pc can. If they want to shove in that shit, then at least make me able to pull them out.

My man, have you ever worked in tech support? I admire your optimism.

I dread meetings and I can't wait for AIs to replace those managers. Or perhaps we'll have even more meetings because the management wants to know why we're so late despite the AI happily churning out meaningless codes that look so awesome like all that CSI VB GUI crap.
