Funny how all that stuff one spends so much time and effort learning was "a waste of time and effort" to everyone that has zero idea how anything works "under the hood", but the moment it breaks, you're always the guy that has to fix it in the end. I honestly believe that's one of the biggest contributing factors to "developer burn-out". Being ignored and ridiculed repeatedly (Shut up, Nerd. Nobody wants to hear you yammer about how to waste more time on backups and security.) until something breaks and then being called on to fix it like you're some sorta robot or something... (It's fixed? Great! Back to your cubicle now, code monkey!) And now all the scumbags at the top want to replace us all with "AI"? I mean, why even bother anymore? What's the point? Where's the reward for all the hard work and caring about doing a good job? What? Another kick in the nuts while I'm already down? That's the reward? Gee, thanks Boss... May I have another?
