Your Website Is Not for You

...and now it's for AI to "consoom"...

This is a distillation of what we used to (still do?) teach junior SWEs.

"You are not the customer for the thing we're making, nor have you ever been. You don't know what they want/need."

And why did you put a clock in your website? lol

This writing was effective, clear, to the point, and revealed a human perspective. I can sense the frustrated professional going behind the curtain and tidying up his reservations about dealing with his clients.

It was refreshing to read in exactly the way AI slop isn’t.

And you are the reason internet is putrid.

Leave technology please.

You are here to scam someone, not to have fun, not to produce anything of value, not to please anyone.

Leave technology please, never come back.

Except when your website is for you. That being the case where you aren't just making it because someone else is paying you or you think you might get hired because of it. Those websites aren't yours, obviously.

I'm talking about the websites you make because it is actually your choice, not when you are coerced into it by external forces. That website is for you, it is your backyard garden of the mind and everything about it is only what you like. And it matters a whole lot more than anything you're being paid to do.
