Recently I gave my first ever presentation at iO. It was about what it actually feels like to be a junior developer in a world where AI is just always there. This is a write-up of that talk, including what the room said back.

Is that because you didn’t bother to read the documentation before using product X, and now you encountered some issue because you used X incorrectly?

After years of using SO, then years of going to docs first, I've started going back to SO. It just tends to be faster. You can find a question that is 90% similar to yours, rather than piece together scattered bits of information across pages and pages of docs.
