how? management in most Tech companies are incentivizing them to do just that, so if you bring it up, they'll happily trot over to your manager to complain and then the uncomfortable conversation is you with management about why you're getting in the way of AI uptake by the team.
Or maybe they just didn't have the time (left it to the last minute and ran out of it), and went with the first thing that AI proposed which was said CLI with documentation.
SLO timelines are usually over 7d, 30d etc no? and also often don't work that great for backend services in my experience ... they can't give you the level of reactivity that defining alerts about things you care about give you. I'd argue that moving from that direction upwards to figure out what alerts to aggregate and define SLOs around, rather than the other way around in those cases.
I don't think that massive downturn people are thinking is coming ... is going to come. The job market is too strong (because of lower immigration, and how many exited the job market during covid) and so is the housing market.

Bird is another big one, they've been trading below the $1 watermark for a week or two now, after 30 days of consecutively trading under $1 companies get delisted from the exchange.
The people who like your new stuff will help you figure out how to fix it and make it good enough so the old system truly becomes obsolete, otherwise the old system will continue to exist and people will continue to use it, so that now, theres 2 options instead of just one.
No Dichotomy there, its one thing to 'charge more' for your services, its another thing to ask for 30% of your client's SaaS subscription revenue, because you built them a website.
This is a really good post that every engineer should read, especially early on in their career. I spent a lot of mine butting my head against a wall, and getting nowhere because I thought that soft skills and understanding organizational politics (not necessarily participating in them) weren't super important as long as you were good at the primary work of building software.
This post articulates exactly why those things are important and furthermore exactly how to pursue acquiring them in the right measure to get things done in your org. Brilliant stuff.
