Fuck Zoomers, and I mean it. You chose tech for money, you lowered our salaries, now you pay.
>>
>>108879901
zoomers weren't working age during they hayday of massive overhiring of cheap "tech" labour. you did this to yourselves by pricing yourselves out of a job dickwaving about how little you do in your le fully remote job making 600k/minute and got laid off when the money printer ran out of ink. "tech" has just been a long series of bubbles not even motivated by New Thing, it just happens when borrowing costs are low

AI means the base floor for amount of jobs is permanently lower
Since AI will only get better the job pool gets smaller, and the smaller amount of recruits of the future will be mentored by small amount of seniors currently employed

Only a year ago I was still working hard and solving problems on my own. Comprehending large codebases and doing refactors that took time and skill. Now I'm just prompting fucking claude in plan mode to analyze what's wrong and then prompting again to refactor or fix or whatever. I highly suspect this is making me dull. There's no pride in my work anymore.

Yeah but what can I do about it? The customer assumes and demands that we use claude and also the development work moves faster now due to AI so we are expected to deliver so fucking quickly that a mere human without the help of AI isn't able to keep up at all.

>>108880408
If it's any consolation, I work at a fintech firm, and the managers are trying hare-brained schemes to get our finance people to have more responsive computers, even though we have some of the best virtual desktops money can buy. The real secret is their workflows are inefficient and over 20, sometimes 25+ years old and full of proverbial duct-tape and gum and shoestring code. Me and one other sysadmin told a few managers point blank they need to modernize and optimize their code, but they outright rejected it and think more computer will magically solve the problem. At some point I talked to an old coworker and she just told me to keep work and personal boundaries/walls up and learn to distance yourself mentally from your work and not get personally attached or emotional about it. Once you do that it becomes very freeing. One of the old wizards working there said "Shit always comes in circles and patterns. Just wait and they'll come around to your idea."

I think two things were the breaking point for me. One was ending up at a three-day psych stay after years of abuse that I internalized from work, which gave me a rock bottom low point, and then I read how to Stop Worrying and Start Living by Dale Carnegie at the behest of a therapist. I swore I would never let myself get that low again, and I'll be damned if I'm going to let some made up "emergency" that was caused by the incompetence of my managers make me sick from worry.

Farming is profitable if its seed and feed with no debts(500k$ profits zero debts). Animals are generally more expensive.

>>108882352
Its currently happening with SaaS/IaaS/PaaS services right now. Not long until you hear about companies cutting out the middle man entirely with their own search engine due to the reduced cost of running that shit locally. For reference HPC aka SuperComputer systems upgrade every 3ish years due to the 30% power reduction and see 2X performance increase when doing so.

Related, I'm interested in what will happen to Nvidia in five years. They are going all in on datacenter gpus and pumping prices, motivating everyone to design their own solutions to stop being beholden to Nvidia. Most AI hw design comes from published papers, it's not like they have some secret IP.
