I let the GPTs do that for me, without worrying that I won’t learn to code YAML for Ansible.

And this is the perfect use case. There’s a good chance someone has done exactly what you want, and AI can regurgitate that for you.

That’s not true of any interesting software project though.

FAIL some code reviews on corner cases. Fail some reviews on ISO27002 and supply chain and role sep. Fail some deployments when they’re using dev tools in prod. And use them all as teachable moments.

Fortunately, I work at an org that does this. It turns out that if our product breaks in prod, our customers could lose millions, which means they could go to a competitor. We build software to satisfy regulators, regulators that have the power to shut down everything if the ts aren’t crossed just so.

Maybe that’s the problem, maybe the stakes are low enough that quality isn’t important anymore. Idk, what I do know is that I go hard on reviews.
