I honestly don’t know what to do, and I don’t think anybody does. Coworkers, other professionals, therapists—there is no consensus.

I fucking love development. I went to computer camp and decided I wanted this career at age 10 before I even understood it was a possibility.

I want to be paid to know things. Not to supervise a guessing machine and guide it like a sycophantic lost puppy.

I cling to the hope that AI companies will burn through their revenue and will implode under their own infestors’ demand for ROI before they truly have something that wipes away the entire profession. I am a terrible gardener.
