#SoftDev
I'm currently the "ai enablement" tech lead at (softdev) work for unclear reasons

as a reaction to the AI generated slop I am instead speccing hard into writing extremely not-AI comms about how we're enabling a new model tomorrow

When the AI bubble does burst, what is everyone's migration path back to engineering practices? Seems like a lot of shit is now ossified in softdev that came from over complexity with slopped on overcomplexity that likely won't go away for along time after.

Across most other creative industries as well. In the past you could at least take your skillset and sell it to a different market but everything from softdev to advertising is various degrees of fucked.

I've sent over a thousand job applications over the last year, only to be able to count the number of replies back on a single hand and be told that, despite having 10 years of experience in hobby softdev and hundreds of completed projects, i wasn't skilled enough for a junior position.

"Oh, we want to add some sort of ranged unit that can shoot over mountains like in Total Annihilation!"

/softdev: "Sounds awesome, give me 6 more months."

"nevermind"

If you use AI to code.
You can't code.

Read some Stack Overflow posts.

I no longer trust any software developer who relies on Claude

deadass reinventing OSS apps that have existed long before the AI craze, and outsourcing problem solving skills (important for a softdev) to a computer

could've just asked somebody to ring the phone, like people have done FOR AGES

Any softdev certifications worth doing?

it somewhat plays into the stereotype of a nerd sector, but softdev has been a pretty machoist field for a long time, it's easier to see it in foss where everyone has heard stories of verbal abuse, especially but not excl from oldheads (e.g linus literally had to take emotional int. training)
