Choose Boring Technology (2018)

We were discussing this classic at work today...

How do you all think LLM-assisted coding has interacted with the thesis of this deck?

This is perhaps in contrast to this recent blog post: https://www.anthropic.com/engineering/redesigning-source-con...

In normal times, choosing to roll your own source control would be akin to spending all your innovation tokens at once. Obviously, Anthropic is now a google-esque corporation so they have many tokens to spend. But one of the implications of that blog post is that non-google-esque corporations may now actually have more innovation tokens than we had previously.

Curious what the wisdom of the HN crowd thinks!
