Why the hell would it be a good thing to withhold knowledge from junior devs?
this is the sole reason i jumped to the comments. you are supposed to be on a team. i mean, yes this product is silly but the posters way if thinking is disastorous.
What I've read is it's meant to keep crosstalk from multiple devs using AI at once from messing up each other's work. So everyone can just vibe code and not have any idea what they're doing in their own little space.
Just...just fucking work from home
My code:
That's the best code i have ever seen
Self-documenting!
But then it's harder to micromanage everyone. Better to hire people with no skill, then force them to drive to a central location, and distribute masks to have them tell an AI what to do.

If they didn't, other companies would be more attractive to capital, its how competition works.
Am I reading this wrong? https://uslawexplained.com/fiduciary_duty
Yes, I believe you're interpreting that page incorrectly. Fiduciary duties are law bindings for specific relationships and situations not applicable for all publicly traded companies to all shareholders.
I believe you're confusing that idea with the theory of shareholder supremacy that's a claim, popularized by the likes of Jack Welch to support their actions.
The background comes from Dodge v. Ford Motor Co. in 1919 which stated
and the interpretation has been quite debated.
