  • They are trying to kill CS with AI.

    Software and Computer engineers are absolutely stupid expensive. And we’re necessary, because so few people understand it, and even less want to put in the required work to do it.

    Unfortunately for them, they don’t understand it to the point where they inevitably push away the people they need to make use of AI tools, and cover the gaps that AI leaves.

    Me, freshmen year of college: “I’m going to major in computer engineering - with additional math and physics courses. Capable of designing all sorts of cool stuff, and get paid well”

    Me 16 years later: “I don’t know what the fuck I’m doing, I don’t know what the fuck management wants, I don’t know what the fuck I want to do, but at least I get paid well.”





  • Well, think about it. If you are writing software that already exists, it’s not innovative. But, think about how rare that is. Has anyone combined the business logic in your specific way before? Chances are no, because if they had, they already beat you to market or you can reuse yourself.


  • Hey, I do this. Sort of. Makes me wonder if I added my deck into the routine if it would be more effective.

    Work that no one has done before and is an interesting problem I can dive into and become a wizard on in no time. Only problem is I rarely get the time required to do it, unless I sacrifice personal time or maybe a goat
