Spot on critical analysis of the blog post "Developers reinvented" by Github Thomas Dohmke which includes such quotes as:

> Many Computer Science (CS) programs still center around problems that AI can now solve competently.

Yeah. No they do not. Competent CS programs focus on fundamentals not your ability to invert a binary tree on a whiteboard. [1]

Replacing linear algebra and discrete mathematics with courses called "Baby's First LLM" and "Prompt Engineering for Hipster Doofuses" is as vapid as proposing that CS should include an entire course on how to use git.
