This is one of the reasons I think the "replace developers with ai" doesn't really fly in reality, as devs/engineers are typically the smartest people in any company I've worked for in a few decades. I don't s

I'm seeing the top-down AI usage pushed from the same types of leaders and companies who love to outsource and are happy with shit shovelled over the wall then devs firefight production bugs forever. It's just a good reminder the

It's not for everyone, but I found I was keeping a lot of things "for the memories". I started taking pictures of the thing then getting rid of it. Serves similar purpose and easier to let it go.

You sound as if you might be one who would then say: "In order to reverse this long term plot, a Democrat president should definitely use executive orders to accomplish this", etc. (Which is my point.)

by gedy 9mo ago
Biggest challenge is that people bleat about executive overreach when their team is not in power, then smirk with glee when they have it. Similar to debates about freedom of speech, etc.

It might just be companies I have worked for in past 25 years, but engineers were virtually always the ones to make sense of whatever vague idea product and UX were trying to make. It's not just code monkey follow the mockup stuff. A

Depends on your goal - do you have an idea you care about and want to solve? Probably a good idea. If you "want to be your own boss" or looking for something just to be acquired, hard to say, depends on who you know, etc.

I'm not involved with this specific case, but in general it's annoying when people blast some vague passive aggressive accusation publicly, but then retreat behind "it's a private matter! Respect our privacy!" when

I think the mistake comes from when UI/UX started calling themselves a part of product leadership, vs basically being one of the team.

by gedy 10mo ago
I don't really like Tailwind, but it's a really good fit for LLM tools because there's basically no context needed like you get with normal CSS inheritance, etc. What you see is what you get.

I think that's comparing something different. I've seen the one-day vibe code UI tool things which are neat, but it feels like people miss the part that: if it's that easy now, it's not as valuable as it was in the past

I honestly think they could have done that and still had some taste and considered usability much more than they did.

Internships should be for that, but that's fallen by the wayside in many places.

Yeah I think a lot of the mediocre PM type work of getting from this tool, input, etc to summarizing requirements into that tool, etc is exactly what LLMs do well.

I don't have a reference handy but I think another factor was Apple (at least) started to exclude the automatic podcast downloads as a "listen", which caused a large drop in podcast listener counts for ad purposes.
