  Your confidence in blue states is misplaced. Canada and Mexico will not come to save them.

  People who would have gone into finance or received an MBA have been going to tech for a decade now. Every one of them pushes out someone who would have been a real developer.

  I’ve also had the pleasure of watching a lot of the generation who’s now complaining as they grew through their journey as developers. I think a lot of them are sugar coating their own abilities. I struggled with many a now illustrious developer whole they banged their head against the wall for hours.

  You’re supposed to gatekeep code. There is nothing wrong with gatekeeping things that aren’t hobbies.

  If someone can’t explain every change they’re making and why they chose to do it that way they’re getting denied. The bar is low.

  Lame platitude

  You can also just have an application designed to do that do it more accurately.

  If you can’t do that you’re not an engineer. If you don’t recommend that you’re not an engineer.

  If they think AI is working for them then he can. If you think AI is an effective tool for any profession you are a clown. If my son’s preschool teacher used it to make a lesson plan she would be incompetent. If a plumber asked what kind of wrench he needed he would be kicked out of my house. If an engineer of one of my teams uses it to write code he gets fired.

  AI “works” because you’re asking questions you don’t know and it’s just putting words together so they make sense without regard to accuracy. It’s a hard limit of “AI” that we’ve hit. It won’t get better in our lifetimes.

  I work in tech and can confirm the the vast majority of engineers “dislike ai” and are disillusioned with AI tools. Even ones that work on AI/ML tools. It’s fewer and fewer people the higher up the pay scale you go.

  There isn’t a single complex coding problem an AI can solve. If you don’t understand something and it helps you write it I’ll close the MR and delete your code since it’s worthless. You have to understand what you write. I do not care if it works. You have to understand every line.

  “But I use it just fine and I’m an…”

  Then you’re not an engineer and you shouldn’t have a job. You lack the intelligence, dedication and knowledge needed to be one. You are detriment to your team and company.
