Side thought I had: I've met a lot of software developers that will say "I'm trying to automate myself out of a job". It feels a lot different when you actually do lose your job. I know that isn't what's going on here, it's other economic trends, but this just made me think of that.
- erikpukinskis 3y agoIdeally when you automate yourself out of one job, you are then available to take on another, and also to have more flexibility and higher compensation as part of that process. This is pretty much what “leveling up” is. Either literal automation, or automation through establishing process, culture, and hires around you. If you want to automate yourself and then stop working you need to be an owner.
