Given this trend, GPT 5 or 6 will be trained on a majority of content from its previous versions, modeling them instead of the expect full range of language. Researchers have already tested the outcome of a model-in-loop with pictures, it was not pretty.

You mean Microsoft will recoup the cost of unbundling by charging more per product compared to the previous bundle, given that it's now different products?

'cause at work the powers that be has gone all-in on MS and this decision won't change a bit their "strategy".

Subjective take: there's worse than FreeCAD - sure it's a bit "old school" but it's bearable. O. The other hand, the solver has crashed on me so many times... The workbench way of doing things requires some time to get usdmed to, sure, but a crashing solver is far worse.

This one is interesting. What java bias is linked to user experience in Jetbrains products exactly?

Modular's Mojo might interest you - it just popped up in my news feed, it's entirely a coincidence.

Others has answered the specific cases where TTM is paramount.

When time is less of an issue, in my experience it's in no particular order a mix of:

  • product owners or similar role wanting "everything and right now" for no reason whatsoever, except maybe some bonus;
  • bosses bossing around to try and justify their existence instead of easying progress ;
  • developers being not much more than code jockeys with a tendancy to develop by StackOverflow copy/paste;
  • operations lacking time, resources or knowledge to build a proper CI/CD pipeline - when it's not an issue of operations by ServerFault copy/paste;
  • experts (DBA, virtualization, middlewares) being kept out of the project, and only asked for advice when things go terribly wrong later.

All in all, instead of short term profit, it's a lack of not-so-long term vision and engagement from everyone involved. They just don't care.

Yeah, I'm the one in charge of fixing the mess, why you ask?

Your question is a bit vague but it looks to me that what you want is some sort of expert system of inference engine.

There might be some open source solutions, and there's always the GNU Prolog language that might suit your needs.

I suspect that you won't get a graphviz structure out of it though.

On behalf of garbage, I loudly protest on this attempt to assimilate it to Powershell.

You decide which repo you want to be managed, there's an embarking option that creates an issue explaining how to have the tool embarking the repo and the tool itself has a filter if you want a "whitelist" approach.

The docs list GitHub, Gitlab, Bitbucket, Gitea and some Azure and AWS solutions. The runner is only available on Gitlab, though.

There's also a "freemium" solution, but I couldn't get it to work and the runner is working fine anyway.

On a side note, w.r.t. keeping the dependencies up to date, have a look at renovatebot. It creates merge request for each and every dependency update, thus triggering a build to check that everything is OK.

You can add support contract requirements for some pieces of software coming from vendors with so little confidence in their product that they're rather have it run on an outdated dependencies environnement. A side effect of the logic you talked about, applied to software vendors.

Unplug your mouse. Seriously. Do it. It might sound like the "kicking and screaming" method but you'll learn to rely on your keyboard even for GUI tools and you'll vastly improve how fast you navigate your computer. You should find yourself more and more in the terminal, obviously, but you may learn also some nice tricks with everything else.
