Tom @moll.dev · 20/06/2025Great read as always! I’m wondering if we can live in a post-senior world? Is there some level of tolerable slop? 120
sassenach @samasochism.bsky.social · 22/06/2025 something i've been frustrated by is a lack of opportunities or interest by most (Not all!) people i worked for in helping me ge tmore experience i maybe still kind of do want to get better as software dev (getting close to just quitting) but at times it seems companies aren't interested at all 030
NotNite @notnite.com · 20/06/2025every single time I think about trying to formulate my opinions on AI I wake up and see a blog post that illustrates my points better than I could have 1330
Don Kirkland @donkirkland.bsky.social · 21/06/2025This is both new and very old. The disconnect between management and dev is real. A big part of this is lack of comprehension. Developers are wizards, so just wave your magic wand and move on to the next task. AI is just different wizardry. A computer that can wave its own wand! Palm, meet face. 020
David Weingart @dbw.bsky.social · 20/06/2025Very thoughtful and well-reasoned (and well-written). 030
Jeff Johnston @koeselitz.bsky.social · 20/06/2025we cannot claim that our society is just when AI data centers aren’t engulfed in holy and very literal flames 020
Jms Dnns @jmsdnns.bsky.social · 20/06/2025i love this. a friend who is a director at a big hedge fund in NYC said he has junior devs refusing to use LLMs because they want to learn. i wonder if this is happening elsewhere too. 080
Catherine @whitequark.org · 20/06/2025something i've thought about a lot is. i've signed the paperwork to completely eliminate any reproductive function i may have had. i won't have children my particular skillset is probably something that will only get more valuable as "AI" captures more mindshare. and yet, i'm not happy 0150
Xe @xeiaso.net · 20/06/2025Wow, rare hacker news W > This is the true problem with AI. It's with who owns it, and what they will inevitably use it for. Whether it can do cool stuff with code or equal a junior developer is irrelevant. What it can do is less important than what it will be used for. 21039
Metaflame @metaflame.dev · 20/06/2025"I don't fear the power loom. I fear the profit expectations of the factory owners." yeah, this is it I worry about the power loom for its potential, but I don't fear it as-is. My anger is directed at those who abuse its potential for profit, cutting corners and displacing workers. 141
