>we as a community spent decades trying to make it clear that our productivity is not easily measured
Did we? All I saw the last decade was increasing worship of the Github activity grid, from both engineers and non-engineers. IMHO the bazaar had already lost its way before this.
I had seen, up until LLMs, posts in this theme: https://dannorth.net/blog/the-worst-programmer/ pretty regularly. This one was only a few years ago!
Maybe we run in different circles. Or did, anyway.
