Ye I honestly don't understand his comment. Is it bad code writing? Pre 2026? Sure. In 2026. Nope. Is it going to be a headache for some poor person on oncall? Yes. But then again are you "supposed" to go through every single line in 2026? Again no. I hate it. But the world is changing and till the bubble pops this is the new norm

I too tell my boss to promote me and expect him to do so.

Based on what I have seen, read and experienced, a tech doesn't just go away. It evolves (unless you know one company was building it and then got shut down). Social media in the current form if it went away, would get replaced with something even worse.

It made me disgusted reading it so I would say yes it did play with my emotions.

That is the companies problem to solve. They are the ones making the product.

> AI reduces the penalty for weak domain context

This is why (personal experience) I am seeing a lot of FullStack jobs compared to specialized Backend, FE, Ops roles. AI does 90% of the job of a senior engineer (What the CEOs believe) and the companies now want someone that can do the full "100" and not just supply the missing "10". So that remaining 90 is now coming from an amalgamation of other responsibilities.

I was learning it and having a great time with it. Unfortunately the job market for it is abysmal. And in 2026 with the current state of the job market I didn't want to focus my time on something that wouldn't help me to get a job. But still the most fun I have had with a language.

Just saw a Discord-weekend take on reddit! Haha. Guy was saying he could create it in a day and then self-host it on his servers so that he doesn't have to put Nitro ads on top of it

Boring Java dev here. Do I just sit this one out?

cons to YOU outway the pros. pros to HIM outway the cons.

Indian here. You are correct. Expecting any employed Indian software developer to not be able to spare 1$ is stupid. Like how exactly poor do you think we are?!

Damm this is smart. I like it

Isn't coding style a solved problem with claude.md files or something?

Everybody has a big ego when it comes to their own sense of humor, till they create an account on hackernews and get told they should stop being funny. I hope the other guy gets it
