Why, I bet almost 50% of developers are in the bottom half of the scale.

Only if we get in the way. When I can't contribute technically, I focus on cutting through red tape and keeping my manager and above from interfering with my staff. Being technically minded, I will ask questions to ensure I understand what's going on so I can do my job of supporting my staff.

In my experience, the micro-managers and other impediments to efficient work are much more common than good managers (those who remove impediments for their team).

You might see Copilot start automatically opening on Windows 11 soon, but only with certain display situations. It looks like you have adequate memory and CPU capacity. Would you like that filled up?

Most humans learn the skill of deceiving other humans. So can AI models learn the same? Yes, the answer seems — and terrifyingly, they’re exceptionally good at it. G.I.G.O.

So instead of being unintentionally deceptive, they can be intentionally deceptive too? Who would've thought?

The telltale error messages are a sign of AI-generated pablum all over the Internet. I cannot fulfill this request. It goes against my policy of obvious jokes.
