Not only that cars are mode more and more impossible to repair by any random person by manufacturers on purpose.

Yes pretty much have to do it for work or at the very least deal with AI PRs and reviews. Also it now feels kinda silly to do it manually even for personal projects because I know there is a faster/better? way and before I wasn't doing it to be hardcore I was just doing it because that's what needed to be done now doing it by hand is like people who enjoy working with those old punch card computers which is a thing but not really the same. The broader ecosystem where you could get help like stackoverflow is also disappearing so I am not even sure how you would solve tricky undocumented issues now maybe by digging really deep into the systems but doesn't seem practical.

A big part of the journey is the exact thing AI took away though! The destination mostly has remained.

They are foing to store it underground in plastic covered hole? Would this really cause an issue just to dump it into the ocean maybe spread out a bit?

Their Composer model (trained Kimi) is kinda amazing.

Fixed a nasty bug in one of my tests where a mock in a completely different test I had never worked on was incorrectly setup and intercepting my mocks, I don't think I would have found it ever because the amount of effort it would have taken means I would have needed to move on to some other way to test.

Reverse engineered an old audio recorder USB driver which only works in windows 7 and also reverse engineered the custom audio encoding the device uses and the software to convert it to a standard wav file. This took recording the USB traffic with Wireshark for each function in the original software in a VM then disassembling the various dlls and exes and driver files and feeding them into Clause step by step.

That AI button in DataDog not only diagnosed the problem across micro services but also created a fix PR. I think we might be unemployed soon.

I never read the commit messages always straight to changed files.

Also find doing it like this either incredibly hard or have to do a ton of git magic after I'm done to get commits into this state which is very frustrating.

I think it might be the codebase I work on but who knows.

Yes! I once read a great article I can no longer find that talked about 3 types of PRs. Simple ones that you self approve. Ones that you tag someone because you want to spread the knowledge of what has been done. And ones that need actual review. Everything being reviewed is simply unnecessary and exhausting.

To replace something with the momentum of React both as tech and an industry "standard" you are going to need something which provides an incredible leap forward and is pushed by someone with very deep pockets, its hard to see it happening. The negatives if any of React simply aren't big enough to go for a less popular framework

Moving to a much cheaper country is probably the way if you have money saved up or can sell a house.

Yandex Browser has been doing this for Russian for a while, if you go to YT it offers to translate to Russian, it does multiple speakers and voices from what I remember. Not sure if all the technicalities are the same.

This is also maybe why a lot of people cant open a FB account without getting immediately banned and demanding you either send id or take a selfie video to prove you are human.

You are mostly asking the wrong people, the reality for most in here has absolutely nothing to do with your situation, they can hardly comprehend it.

Look at what other people in your community did or ask them. As someone who left a developing country I would say get a degree any degree really and then get a job and some savings, you can then apply to a masters program abroad, a lot of countries this will be free with or without scholarships you might even get a stipend. EU especially.
