Success stories do exist... ones I see all come from people who are/were software engineers
Learning to code / build software not a waste after all?

Seeing a lot of dev-on-dev harassment has got me thinking about what open software development feels like nowadays.

New tools are always at a disadvantage against old tools that LLMs have enormous sample datasets to use effectively. If the future of software dev is LLM agent wrangling, then the future of software dev is a crystallized mid-20s present of software dev.

All the developers 404 Media talked to were excited to try using LLMs at work at first, or were at least curious about them. Their feelings about the tools, based on their personal experience, are now overwhelmingly negative. AI is rotting their brains www.404media.co/software-dev...
