ceiling is being raised. cursor's copilot helped us write "superhuman code" for a critical feature. We can read this code, but VERY few engineers out there could write it from scratch.
Took lots of convincing too. "come on, this must be possible, try harder". and obviously- done

my best advice for getting into tech 2024
tech is open to anyone with enough grit. it's hard, it's really really hard. harder than a lot of people will tell you. it continues to be hard and i suspect it's getting harder

ifn't the most beautiful thing i have ever seen
C# now allows the "ifn't" statement to check whether a condition is *not* true.
This helps with readability, as well as reduce the amount of exclamation marks used.

They don't do any marketing really
