> Looking at the countless repetitive posts on HN, it shows what HN programmers are afraid of. They're afraid of the destruction of their overall meta-methodology.

I think this already happened. What's hard to swallow for us is the countless years spent studying, researching, and investing our time to be the best possible professionals in a very demanding, skill-intensive industry.

Now that software development is starting to be industrialized, I think it's fair to react with fear and uncertainty.

Yep, we are trying to find new strategies and methodologies to still stay relevant, but I think they'll become obsolete soon once the technology reaches a maturity point for full automation and the industrialization of the development process.

What it will look like, I don't know (I have a few guesses), but what I know is that I'll struggle a lot, in the middle of my forties, to reskill myself, especially considering a country of no opportunities like Italy.

> In that sense, I think the recent post from Jane Street is more like a new solution.

Can you please share it?
