What AI is doing to the jobs of programmers feels very familiar to a lot of us frontend developers – because it has happened to us before.

Is AI causing a repeat of Frontend’s Lost Decade? | Mastro Blog

AI is doing to programming what framework-brain did to the frontend before. Deskilling, or just working at a higher level of abstraction?

Even though I've made this joke myself I actually really hate the "all developers have to be engineering managers now with agents" No, they all need to be tech leads, not ems. Unless you're having to deal with the agents' interpersonal issues and the PM distracting them and getting them promoted and

For anyone else who feels conflicted about AI and afraid to talk about it: I wrote this for you. Obviously these are just my opinions, but I hope this helps at least one person. annies-brain.offprint.app/a/3ml6zdf5f5...

Stuck in the middle: Being an engineer & artist in the AI era | Annie Sexton | Offprint

I'm an AI skeptic, through and through. But I also voluntarily use AI nearly every day. So naturally, you might be asking: what the heck?

nuance is good actually. I want nuance injected in my veins. embrace complexity and caveats. just say maybe.

If you have suddenly unlocked a superpower that allows everyone you employ to be 2x (4x, 10x, whatever) more efficient and your response is to lay off a bunch of people instead of *doing more stuff*, why do you even run a company?

We heard you like waiting for build steps so we made waiting for build steps the entire thing engineers do now

Should you burn it all down? I made you a handy infographic to help you decide!

This is yet another reminder that using AI doesn't make the product better, when you don't have a team that is customer-obsessed / product obsessed. And a team that is customer/product-obsessed without AI (or very little AI) will still run laps around one with AI...

I wrote a blog post about some of the options for adding type checking to your Django project! Historically, Django projects have been tough to type-check, but the future feels bright, especially if PEP 827 gets accepted! blog.pecar.me/typing-your...

And of course you can build great software without LLMs. If your preferred workflow is to type the code I think there’s nothing wrong with that at all. The “you’re being left behind” narrative is ridiculous. Use the tools if they help you, don’t if they don’t. Everyone needs to grow up, man.

Been thinking about this since it was shared with me yesterday, especially about how oppressively most organizations pressure managers (even senior ones) to stay in that persona rather than actually leading www.leadingsapiens.com/ics-managers...
