Individual offices -> cubicles -> open space -> now this -> soon back to offices?

It's absurdly hilarious how many "good practices" the LLM assistance wave has ushered (back) in, from proper code comments and documentation, to the notion that being able to think out loud without distracting your coworkers might actually be productive.

proper code comments

Is that back in again? At my last job, the guy doing code review on our project wrote a script to automatically remove all comments, because he believed that any comments at all were a "code smell". It was annoying as hell because my responsibility was making sure the code passed accessibility testing (VoiceOver on iOS). I would make the necessary changes and include comments explaining the why (VoiceOver is wonky as hell and sometimes you have to do weird stuff to get it to work properly); his script would remove the comments and the other developers would do the same damn things that had broken accessibility in the first place. Over and over again.

Fortunately, the app never went into production and everybody was laid off.
