I don't think it is fair for a person dedicating years of life towards higher education and becoming a professional to earn the same as someone who doesn't. Its not jealousy, its just unfair. If earnings are flat, what motivates someone from getting educated and growing as a person?

    And Apple aren't that much better. They make a lot of privacy claims, but are still pushing hard for their online services like iCloud, and their hardware is designed to hide what it's doing from the user. Apple is still collecting user data. They might be sharing less with third parties, but they are still collecting it.

    I use copilot at work all the time and it's incredibly useful. However, it needs careful supervision to produce good quality. And obviously, you need to understand code and what quality means to be able to guide it, otherwise it's just the blind guiding the blind.

    Personally I think the problem is the culture which doesn't promote quality, but speed and the wow factor. You don't get promoted for releasing a bug free product, you get promoted for making yourself noticed among the upper management.
