When the author of a programming how-to on using magic beans to create apps feels he must inform the student that prompting "fix my app" can work better with some situation context, then even the pretense "software engineering" is dead.

What's even more dumbfounding is that the magic beans may actually just "fix the app".

Why doesn't this kind of article strike terror in the heart of the industry?

It's a canary-in-a-coal-mine and the bird has died.

WHAT IF, the author is the LLM?
