4.5 is unironically good. The models are improving more or less along the trajectories given by more moderate experts. I think we are actually structurally fucked at this point but for a small percentage of specialized experts and maybe the next generation of more elite graduates to replace them.
Alternatively it plateaus and crashes and burns when the energy bill finally comes due and productivity gains, while real, cannot justify the expense.

Opus 4.5 is a god sent but you still have to do manual PR review if you don't want to refactor a metric ton of useless shit an hour later. It loves creating 100 lines+ files for a 40 line feature

>>"oh ok can I close the ticket now or is there any other problems"
I've had this exact same experience, except they close the ticket despite me saying the issue wasn't resolved

Over 6 months... 6+ months of different jeets closing it, me re-opening it, and them passing it off to another jeet who does the exact same thing like its a game of hot potato

The problem was some LDAP rule that automatically kept removing me from the on-call schedule on a regular cadence, so I'd be scheduled a few weeks out, and then removed forcing some other coworker to take my place.

Now I didnt have a problem with this because thats less work for me but my boss (also a jeet) wanted me to open a ticket to get it resolved and it never did because they were that incompetent.

After 6 months, they laid me and 300+ others off for... take a wild guess... a massive billion dollar contract for more incompetent jeets employed by Accenture

I'm employed now by a much better company that doesn't use jeets but they are getting way too into AI and telling people to get AI to help them with work

Just found out another person from my team is leaving. We could loose over 2/3 of the team in like 2 months

Apart from taking a chill pill and grinding leetcode and projects. How else would you suggest I get out of this predicament? I’m walking up early everyday for months working through this so am putting in work (12 hour days roughly). I’m keen to stay in tech cause it’s cool.

It's alright if you're starting out. That's probably about the minimum I would try to live off of if I were in NYC.

You'll be better off than the financially irresponsible 5-figure normies who want to live in the city so badly that they're putting 75% of their paycheck towards rent, but $150k in NYC is not gonna be like, living it up all the time or anything.

I'm moved into our new office building on the other campus now, and decided to try the local cafeteria. I ordered a basic sandwich... and it was fucking awful. Like... really bad. it was twice as expensive as the sandwiches on the other campus, half the size, and it just wasn't even good... I'm so disappointed, might quit over this.

what? are the restaurants just named by numbers or something?

>>107788843
Sucks. Maybe try other things to confirm it wasn't just that specific place or just a bad day

>>107789767
It's the cafeteria in building #9. Not every building has a cafe. In that campus, 4, 6, and 9 do. Each one has multiple stands, each stand serving different types of food. 9 has the best in my opinion. 6 is decent as well (it has steaks), and 4 has the knockoff Chipotle Mexican food stand. It's alright, but kind of flavorless compared to real Chipotle. 9 has the best grill though, and also one that serves seafood stuff. It also has the best sandwich stand.

>>107789777
Yeah, not everything was open today since it's just after the holidays. There is an Asian food stand there that I'll have to try, but I need to look at the menu ahead of time. There's also a different Mexican place that seems like it might be alright. Also Poke bowls, but I'm not a huge fan of those. There's no burger place in that cafeteria though, which is annoying. Have to walk a little further.

your job is like a chore, just make yourself do it no matter how shit it is. that's discipline

My manager has been increasing the scope of our job in such a "well nothing we can do" type way and it's starting to piss me off. For example (hey don't look at me I joined this job and it was already like this), all of our requests were done via email and we were looking on making a ticketing system, that's fine. But now our big man wants "hey you know what, we should also include supporting X,Y,Z" (even though it doesn't really make sense to include that type of support here) then we have a separate ticketing system that the company uses for IT related affairs (we're not IT) that I get tickets from (usually mistakenly because somehow I always get VPN related shit if they can't use our software). Then big boss is like "hey, why don't we also include a section so we can have our users ask for training" (I'm already smacking my head because I don't want to be even more responsible for knowing the ins and outs of their work and then always having to catch myself going "oh it's possible, you just can't do it because it's against our policy"). My manager's reaction to all this is just "welp" and it's annoying the shit outta me. I don't mind helping the team, but they're intentionally putting attention and spotlight on our team (really just me) and it's just ass cheeks.
Like if we include this, now I have to monitor
>Email because of course people are still going to fucking email.

>Scheduling training calls.
compared to just Email and Ticketing System 1. This sucks ass.

I am unironically considering taking steroids.

The looksmaxxers / blackpillers are right. You have like 2-3 years in your early adulthood to score big and land a job at apple or nvidia or whatever before your brain plasticity cements and you're stuck in permanent neurological loser mode. Then all the debuffs start stacking. Feeling like you're never enough, low confidence, insecurity, complacency, your mind starts outwardly projecting your inner self and making your face look worse, etc.
At least if you take steroids you can get another 2-3 years to get that lucky break before your brain calcifies and you're a loser forever.

what are the odds that i'm getting fired?
here's the context, i work for a company doing network infraestructure jobs to offiice buildings, last month i was told to go check the cables in one office that was being remodelled and there was a bunch of network cables hanging from the ceiling into an horizontal conduit, i told my supervisor that they were most likely used and that they should be covered with a vertical conduit by the civil engineers since we don't deal with that, today he told me to look up for three (3) ethernet ports and cut the rest except other 3 so that in total there were only 6 cables hanging from the ceiling for the civil engineers to cover, i did just that and many users reported having no internet, at first i thought it was my collegue who unplugged something from the switch but it turned out that i cut off the ethernet cable for about 7 workstations, each with 3 ethernet cables each (in total i trimmed 32 cables so there was a lot of unused stuff as well)
i was told that i had to fix that today no matter what and that it was not feasible to route new cables, i only noticed that these cables went through the conduit to the workstations in the neighboring workspace rather than going from the ceiling directly to each port after the fact (the norm for this building in particular is that all cables must go through a fake ceiling).
i'm patching this by making female ports in each side of the cut and fusing the gap with a regular cable, i have to do both the RJ45s and the female ports and check if there is connection on the switch later and i can't leave until i'm done.

But this was all much worse for me at 21 (I'm 37, it's all pretty much gone).

please elaborate

Deloitte is a consulting firm and jeet city. You will not see any growth opportunity and will be heavily siloed by clients because they expect you to be a jeet.

Oh God, working on responsiveness for blocks in a wordpress site. The one thing I don't like about being full stack is having to deal with CSS and think about this piddling shit.

I was trying out Flutter for a side project, it seems pretty nice, is there a reason we shouldn't ditch HTML and CSS and do everything in Flutter?

>manager always late for 1:1 because he's on a call with his boss
I get it but it's starting to annoy the shit out of me, he can't just shoot me a quick message saying "hey, I'm in a call will be late". Never keeps track of time man I swear this guy.

>>107789487
They didn't even have my hardware ready for the first two weeks.

>>107797719
You could be passive aggressive and show up even later than your boss.

>>107797773
He's 10 minutes late and still "presenting". I'm just going to say fuck it and go back to jerking off.

The overwhelming majority of zoomers will be totally mediocre. I'm basically the only guy I know taking fin and sunscreen and I wouldn't exactly call myself highly successful.

god i hate my job, i plan something, show the plan, they completely change my fucking shit and then put it back on my plate to figure out how to fix shit with their new business requirements. yeah don't care, smack your dick but it's demoralizing you hand something in and they don't even bother reading it then looking at you and going "yeah this looks good! :D"

You're not working for their approval but for their money. If you want someone to pet your head and call you a good boy, get yourself a mommydaughterwife like Momoka.

>get yourself a mommydaughterwife like Momoka
okay, how do i do that?

apparently got a promotion and I only got a 7% bump from junior to senior. is that reasonable? this feels like fucking ass.

money's meh but im too burnt out to care. I don't even really care about that but I want at least a better feedback loop. I build something, I look at the thing I built, I'm happy but most of the time it's just I build something, I look at the thing I built, what in dog shit darnation is fucking that???? (if it ever gets built, more like it fucking stays in business requirement hell)

>>107797938
Does this promotion come with additional responsibilities or is it merely a job title change? In the former case 7% is ass, in the latter case it's good. In any case stay in your position for a while and then switch because you now have a senior title.

>>107797938
In tech, to get big pay bumps, you have to switch companies. It's just how it is.

>>107797953
That's just how it is, we go from one sprint to the next and build feature after feature. If you're not autistic enough for that, switch careers.

Wow, what the fuck, you copy something from stack overflow, look at what it does now:

Job title change but honestly the responsibilities in this role is so muddled I keep getting thrown out of scope anyways.

fuck it I'll just kill myself then, that any better? sorry this new year treating me a little weird.

>Job title change but honestly the responsibilities in this role is so muddled I keep getting thrown out of scope anyways.
Then 7% and a 'senior' title on top of that is a nice new years gift. They could've kept you as a junior for years to come with like a 1% yearly wage increase.

>>107798006
They've been baiting it since last year then went radio silent. I have a feeling it's just another ploy or fish on the bait to be like "you better not quit hahaha you're part of our plans." I don't even really feel like I have senior skills and I feel so fraud because this place is so disorganized.

>>107798019
You are a fraud but on the job market you're a senior dev now.

>>107798029

Any boomers here? I am 35yo and when I log off at the end of the workday I start seeing blurry at distance. Is my eyesight getting worse? I don't want to wear glasses fuck. Can I recover or am I doomed? How can people just do this work 8h/day for 40+ years???

>>107798192
>people just do this work 8h/day for 40+ years???
nobody does, remember most of this shit is NEW
that's why people make so much so they can retire before their expiration date
if you don't you're fucked

Take carotenoids. They don't reverse eye aging but they slow it down.

>>107798192
Does anyone really code for 8 hours a day? My average is like 3 or 4 hours.

I'm 37, but I always was slightly nearsighted. Got LASEK at 30 and that fixed it, but maybe I shouldn't have had that particular laser surgery, do some research if you decide to go for it.

>>107798298
if it's not coding I am still looking at the computer though, like now shitposting

So I see anons on here saying 2026 is the year AI gets good enough to truly replace the average human developer. But have you guys seen Claude Plays Pokemon? They're using Opus 4.5 and it's a total fucking retard at playing Pokemon Red. I just have a hard time believing that an AI that doesn't have the general intelligence to play pokemon can fully replace a human dev.

Maybe the AI bubble is gonna pop in 2026...

yeah and I didn't think AI would ever make good hentai. guess what i was wrong.
but fuck my pussy hole there's so much slop out there from esls that I can't even find the good shit.

>>107798399
I've been using claude because I was psyopped into thinking it's better at coding/tech than chatgpt
but I threw a problem at it for the entire day, at the end of which I said summarize what we've done in a text file which I fed to openai and it solved it in one shot
I think it's just not that good

>>107798192
There's a 20/20/20 or something like that rule out there.
For every 20 mins looking at something close, look at something 20+ meters away for 20 seconds.
You have muscles that focus your eye, if you don't use it you loose it.

>>107798479
Which is the optimum coding AI changes every 3 months.

They are baiting me this promotion because I wanted to move to a different more lucrative team. I don't trust them on this completely. They might drag me out and eventually call off the offer.

>>107785091
Began a new job this week, helpdesk just to pay the bills. Received a dev level 2 jobs offer roughly a week or two after this.

All I'm seeing at this helpdesk support job is Windows 10 VMs running archaic looking jank fest software in FUCKING Internet Explorer.

Omg, why is every company like this? What is with every .NET shop producing shit that looks like a 2003 MS Office app toolbar?

I was debating holding onto this one but bros, idk. Not even my manager knows most of this shit either.

It's chill in a way but idk, I'm getting red flags already. Onboarding is me going through a few PDFs and most parts of this software crash whenever used.

Man, how do they convince businesses to buy this shit lmao

You could only pay me $200k to move back to NYC. Even then, I didn't even live in Manhattan.

why did everyone say arena rush isn't a real category. sounds like a normal categotry to me and not "any % and no major glitches, except for these couple major glitches, but also we do these things which aren't strictly needed but it's not as fun to skip them"

i want a bullet up my ass and a dick in my head

>when I log off at the end of the workday I start seeing blurry at distance
could be the fact that you are tired.
but you should be doing eye exercises. one works like this (IIRC): look at a remote object from your window for 20-30 seconds, then look at a close object (like the corner of your screen) for 20-30 seconds. repeat a couple of times. do this every 30 minutes.
