Lol, just received a quote as a ppt.
“Can we get an AI tool to save pdfs?”
Only if it can also be a microservice.
I’ve got a guy like this now. I’m sure he does what he does perfectly fine, but I watched him struggle to identify a very obvious bug he pushed to production which disabled an entire function. It’s a little different now when I see him being snarky with other team members…
Fastest way to save a PDF in windows is to tell it you want to print it.
Same in macOS, but it is just a save as PDF button in the print menu rather than a fake printer like in Windows
Many people struggle to save some pdfs lately.
Most devs refuse to take on any sort of responsibility of management. The manager gets paid to deal with that for you. Want more money? Manage coders on a successful team. You’ll e miserable but at least you’ll hit 200k.
My boss didn’t know how to use my ergonomic mouse, and needed me to walk them through how to sign their signature on a PDF.

I use a logitech M575 trackball, people have tried to scoot it like a mouse and yanked their hand away from it as if it burned them.
Its because people get other priorities with age. They dont care about learning new things as much, as a general rule. They have their paycheck and they value time with family or friends. The job is just a way to get money, not a choice or a passion.
This is in contrast with young people, who often wants to show how good they are, make a career, get recognized. Believe it or not, those older people wanted that too but not anymore. They did it, but other things became more important than work.
which is why its important to let people coast in their careers like we were allowed to up until recently
You shouldn’t have to constantly take on new and difficult projects at once just to stay afloat, it should genuinely be enough to punch in, do a single task, punch out after a certain age.
I watched someone print his screen by putting his monitor on the photocopier.
I mean I see this all the time but those people tend to either have the tribal knowledge or specialist expertise to keep things moving when we hit snags. It’s not obvious until the obvious or textbook solutions to problems run out
Though there are also people around because they talked to all the right people all the time so I partially take your point
Struggle to paste the path to a file. Seriously.
