And that's the point. You don't have to consume everything all the time w/ AI/LLMs. But if you don't pay attn, 1) You'll likely make mistakes on things which didn't work out, like zero-shot prompting, or which models do better on which languages and 2) you'll have to play catch up.

On git? Did you know git would have won over HG, or Fossil? What about using git submodules, or bisect? You can do the research now that I wrote it out, but would you have known about them before hand? What about all the hook features?

And git can be hard, esp if people around you don't know it as well as you do, or people above you know it better than you do. Which again is a problem of people getting in way too late.
