> You May Become Dependent on Your Own Eventual Replacement
If you're going to be eventually replaced, and I absolutely believe that even the best of us will, you may as well get in on the ground floor to extract value for a bit before that happens.
Not writing your own code doesn't need to mean turning your brain off. You still need to look at what came out, understand it, and spot where it didn't match your needs.
- baw-bag 2y agoI agree with that entirely. Using the current tools available to make your life easier while picking up a decent pay check is a no brainer. I probably expect my next job is using said tools primarily followed by complete redundancy. By that point, having never used any of the tools makes you almost no different from anyone off the street. In a way I welcome it. Writing the same menial code as everyone else slightly differently becomes a pretty stale existence.
