  • I once collaborated with an exceptionally talented programmer who seemed so engrossed in his addiction that he would invent challenges where there were none, presumably to make his work more engaging and bearable. However, this often led to incomplete projects because once the stimulating aspects were finished, he struggled to find the motivation to continue. Clearly, this behavior was extreme and detrimental.

    I think a lot of devs can relate to that












  • Industrial workers in the 20th century probably never imagined being replaced by robots, but it’s happened on a large scale.

    There’s still plenty of industrial workers. The same will be true for programmers as AI proliferates.

    These jobs don’t go away, they just become more specialized

    But I will agree with the general notion that we as programmers are incredible fortunate to be able to work from anywhere, creatively, without physical labor
