Yeah, if anything my trust in the value of these tools has declined over the last few months. It's very good at doing the bullshit parts of my job, and utterly useless at doing the things that actually keep me employed. That was the case a year ago, it still is the case, just now people are filing tickets with it containing 18 paragraphs of meaningless technobabble.

I see the overall effect on productivity as a rounding error. More stuff is happening, but for every improvement in my productivity there's some fuckass slop machine clogging up some part of a system that worked just fine a year ago.
