I agree that web dev is basically a solved problem, I don’t know why stuff like next.js exists
I have used it for angular and react and have had 0 complaints, it works great and the best is that I do not need to switch IDEs anymore
I haven’t tried cursor because I don’t want to “downgrade” to VS Code anymore.
The easier way to integrate into an existing code base is just to refactor the code yourself. AI gives a working version, you refactor and move on. For me this has been a huge productivity boost from writing everything from scratch
2 is easy to do, 3 is manageable. I've heard of people doing more than 3, but most I've personally seen someone do is 3.
I think many of the points of the article still apply, especially regarding opportunity cost. A great salesman can make way, way more than a great engineer, so why would he want to join me?
And let's say I want to hire my first salesperson. How do I know who is good and who is not? For me as an engineer, everyone looks like a good salesman, because everyone is better than me (I suck at sales)
How often do you use it and have you found any side effects? (or long term effects for that matter)
Or are they completely different things?
Oh boy was I wrong. I tracked over 120 applications, had 20+ open processes with multiple interviews and in the end only got 1 offer (which I took).
From a dev pov, making sure you are easily replaceable means that you could also find a new job easily. So it’s not all bad.
Real high status is law, medicine, etc.
Management is right in trying to remove “personality” imo.
