I disagree. Especially for programmers that made more money than the vast majority of people. AI came and I'm switching to nursing. Writing code is not part of being a human. I'm glad AI will replace or greater reduce technical jobs and encourage more humanity focused jobs. Not to mention AI makes learning so much easier.

it's only depressing if you expect life to be static and unchanging. things happen. people adapt.

I think AI is better at coding than most other disciplines.

also ex big tech taking prereqs in prep for accelerated 12 month BSN at st marys. time to oversaturate again!

i guess inevitable at the end of the day when everyone just wants a high paying stable job they can build a life off.

reddit does okay from a profit standpoint. reddit does terribly from a bot or even a good community standpoint.

im sorry but maybe connecting to irc is a bit of a filter on the users they expect. especially with ai it should be almost no effort.

It was the same thing with javascript/typescript and python. Sometimes you just have to let people think what they want.

LMS doesn't improve teaching or learning. They are administrative overhead.

Maintaining an LMS doesn't seem like a good use of time. You should almost always outsource pieces that aren't your core business.

When I started spending 40-60 hours a week programming and wanted to spend my remaining time doing other things.

I think your final sentence is more accurate than your churn argument. AI doesn't double output, but actually writing the code is only a small part of the job.

I understand the vision, but how does this work on a global scale. e.g. American employees refuse to build this, but China's don't.

Edit: I originally ended with "What would have happened if Germany had a nuclear bomb and America didn't?", but I think it distracted from the point I was trying to make so moving this to an edit. I'm not trying to ask "is the US the bad guy". I'm trying to ask how to balance personal anti war sentiments with the realities of the world (specifically in this case keeping up in an arms race).

Purely anecdotal, but my friend's dad was a professor at well respected university in California doing Cancer research and recently moved to China even though he didn't want to because the money was too much for him to pass up.

Agree to disagree. He's setting up the argument that Z is strictly better than X.

Admittedly I haven't used C# in a few years, but to my knowledge it is much more ergonomic than java and personally it's my preferred language. Only thing stopping me from using it more is it has a much smaller community than java/python etc. Wondering what you think is missing.
