Actually "AI spending" is the new "lines of code" metric.

  Too real. I got DMed by management recently asking if I was anti-AI because I had the lowest spend on the team as the lead, y'know, the one that has to review all the slop my peers are generating.

    That is rough, and downright embarrassing. What is happening in this industry?

    I'm sorry. These charades are such a complete waste of time, energy and money. They're some real 21st Century Office Space nonsense. I recently joked (only slightly) that it's currently possible to get yourself promoted at these orgs using tokens as a productivity proxy by spending your days having Claude OCR dictionary pages. The concerning corollary of that joke and this management strategy is: when do orgs start offloading reviews to Claude? They're already surveiling a large percentage of peoples' day-to-day and are in a position (or will claim to be) to make a judgement about how those tokens are being used.
