I… don’t agree with this at all.The bottleneck of offshoring was always in the other parts of the job, not code generation. It was in communication and feedback, and product and customer needs.

This is the exact cope I’m talking about, as if these tools are just good at code generation and the actual work was always communication or architecture or something.


Ehh, maybe a little. I don’t think the bottle neck has been prised open all that much yet in those areas
