I thought we were all doing that already?

The idea is to take the human out of the loop.

Jesus, dude. There are managers reading this.

  • What do you think they do all day?

    The larger pattern is not unique to writing code. Think of it next time a reorg comes, or some random thing gets "improved" in the name of "efficiency" only management seems to see.

  • Take them out of the loop.

    Unless they are not human.

    • They became obsolete when they stopped clearing obstacles, stopped masking politics, and started acting as a proxy for JIRA.

      But it's just they way it has always been done, so they get paid to meddle.
