I’ve decided the only way I’ll adopt a full automated agentic AI workflow the way companies want, is if I am allowed to hold multiple jobs at multiple companies. Imagine having 6 software engineering jobs, each paying maybe $150k a year, al

True experts can design code architecture that doesn’t have “tedious parts”.

After a while why wouldn’t the expert just write the good code if the AI never truly learns?

Customer doesn’t give a fuck how long a billing system took to make, they only care that it works correctly. A billing system only truly gets built once, then possibly maintained in perpetuity. This makes the advantage of building it 20x ti

> Do you drive an automatic car? Do you use a microwave? Do you buy food from a grocery store? Do you own power tools? The answer to these questions could easily be no, and life is way better for it.

If you have to really understand software development to be a good user of AI, we’re screwed. All the best users of AI we’ll ever have already exist I think.

At work, there is little reason to ask a human a question, you just talk to AI for answers fast. Only time to talk to another human, is if you are barking down orders. This will be analogous to not hiring a human for anything an AI could do

My problem is that while I know “code” isn’t going away, everyone seems to believe it is, and that’s influencing how we work. I have not really found anything that shakes these people down to their core. Any argument or example is handwav

But how do you make the case for thoughtful less bloated software to people who just value writing less code themselves, even if the output produces more lines of code? Seems to me like people don’t care about LOC, they care about how much
