talk about a blast from the past!

How long have you been working in this field? I ask as if you have numerous years you already know your worth and value irrespective of AI or any other system. If you are still questioning this it indicates to me that you are still in the process of finding yourself and are in the same boat many other folks are in - confronting the existencial crisis of identity as it pertains to work. I suggest do what is necessary to stay employed then on your own time write code by hand for personal or side projects. Be sure to not use AI and learn deployment, devops and infrastructure as much as is needed to be knowledgeable and able to speak to the technology. Then add that to your resume. Keep grinding.

yes I'm using Fable to inspect, generate plan and architectural docs then using Gemini to implement then have Fable review, find bugs. saving lots of usage.

but....just.....why....?

Interesting idea. Would need new laws enacted and government oversight which I'm not sure how people feel about that especially for minors. Maybe there will come a time where all people (in the US or otherwise) have some form of government document that uniquely identifies them (a trusted identity platform not just an ID) though there is and will be lots of pushback. A simple search revealed this: "The implementation of universal government ID systems, particularly digital IDs, is frequently criticized as a key component of a dystopian surveillance state. Critics warn that such systems can lead to mass surveillance, restriction of freedom of movement, and control over personal, financial, and medical lives." So take it for what you will. Can we do this? Yes. Will we is another matter.

The UI is slick nicely done. Currently refreshing gives new batch of movies. Maybe when login they don't change or that's a feature not a bug? I like that it surfaces lots of movies I would have never even considered.

Agree across the board.

Having used Claude Code at work and for personal projects these past 8 months, I can see the attraction to keep going till your session cap is hit. I've used Claude for professional work coding, unit testing, personal projects in languages I haven't learned; completed work I had on the back burner for a number of years. I learned early on to take time for myself and this is no different. One must get out and run, swim, bike, weights, whatever but get your mind out of the computer and work and do some human necessary things besides just eating, pooping and sleeping. We need time to bond with our loved ones, parents, siblings and yes even coworkers. Until we as individuals take that time and leave the obsession (for a while), yes we will spend more and more time getting things done with AI. It's like any addiction. The dopamine hit is very powerful and we do need to reset our mind and rest and form long term memories as well as what my mom always said (take time to smell the roses).

Ok I have to ask you are you in it for the paycheck or the passion? How you answer determines your path. If a paycheck optimize for the largest salary you can conceivably obtain based on your ability and education. If passion follow your passion, get educated and eventually you will find some work in your field. The passion is contagious and will positively affect your life in ways you can't even imagine at your age currently (self satisfaction plays a lot into child rearing). Notice I didn't say money. The day I stop learning is the day I die. My advice, don't stop learning.

yes just saw that!

As soon as that change came through I set the effort to high. Have not regretted it for any coding task. It feels the same as Dec-Jan though now spawning more sub agents which is not a bad thing.
