    There is so much to hate about AI, but programming has not been about typing out code letter by letter for a long time, probably before you and I even started doing it. IDEs have had autocompletion and “generating” whole classes / methods / whatever structure for a couple of years now (although deterministically). Low code / no code has been growing in popularity before LLMs. Generative AI is out of pandoras box, there is no way it will vanish out of software development one day. But we’re also not yet at a point where any sales asshole is able or even willing to create effective and resilient systems as we have seen a couple of times in the recent past. Maybe we will never get there.

    Concepts and architecture matter more than code, they always have. Focus on the bigger picture and learn to use LLMs as a tool, in ways and situations / workflows where it unarguably works (even if you doubt it), but refuse to become a meat proxy that became unable to answer a slack message without AI. Tech is not the problem, it’s a handful of people ruining it for everyone while getting stupid crazy rich by fucking up our planet and the people living on it. Don’t let it take away your passion for computers, or else they have won.










  • The problem will be the childish ones that claim they’re willing to help only when the manager is present to do the opposite when he disappears, something that has happened before.

    Make sure to be transparent on who did what, don’t take any responsibilities for others. They will either get into trouble and learn to cooperate from there on or not. Things might work out fine anyway, just focus on your own part. Prepare interfaces / connecting parts to their work if they can’t manage to do it, but don’t do their work.

    Then there are the immature ones who only care about gossip. I don’t like working with them.

    Stay polite but honest. Don’t engage in topics you don’t like. Tell them you don’t care about other peoples alleged / perceived lives. Keep things work related if there is nothing else to talk about and just stay silent otherwise. This won’t be the last time you’ll have to work with people you don’t like or have nothing in common with. Maybe y’all will still find something to talk about after some time.
