@S_N_SH_E_ probably not the same value but understanding fundamentals will still matter a lot more than knowing the framework of the month

Be honest : Do you really believe most computer science degrees will still have the same value 10 years from now?

@catalinmpit employment used to trade upside for stability, now in a lot of industries, the stability part isn’t guaranteed anymore either

I can’t believe that nowadays it’s safer to build your own company than being an employee. Just a few years ago, employment was the safest option. Now companies lay off people left and right.

Prove you're a Developer, with just one word 👇

@tokko849 @CaptainInsightX yeah, especially once you start seeing second and third order effects everywhere. you solve one thing and immediately notice 5 new trade-offs that come with it

@WilliamP34R @CaptainInsightX There is a very real threat of running into too detailed thinking and curveballs when they are not intended. This kind of thinking is dangerous for sanity, but also necessary to stay sane.

80% of engineers never level up past a certain point. What do you think usually holds them back? -Not coding enough -Weak fundamentals -Not shipping enough real projects -Not reading enough good code

@6oliver6 changing priorities, unclear ownership, dependencies, people waiting on each other, that’s where you find out if the system actually supports the workflow or just visualizes it nicely

@WilliamP34R yeah — screenshots are the easy part. the real test is whether the system still holds when approvals stall, priorities flip, and handoffs get messy. haven’t gone deep on teamhood yet, but that’s exactly the bar: does it survive the actual workflow, or just demo well?

shipping the feature is the easy part. making it survive real workflows is harder. the best project management software for small businesses in 2026 angle only matters if it survives approvals, retries, and real workflows.

@Codie_Sanchez finishing and maintaining real products is definitely harder than generating a prototype but good PMs aren’t there to vibe code, they’re supposed to reduce ambiguity so engineers can focus on solving the right problems instead of constantly re-deciding what matters

product managers are still basically worthless. you need someone who wants to not vibe code an app to 90% (that is most people). But finish it to 110%, plus the terrible monotony of testing, iterating, tweaking, connecting and perfecting. engineers are still invaluable. most people do not have that relentless obsession with detail.

@remy_gaskell if you want stupidly simple, I’d avoid ClickUp entirely, personally I ended up liking Teamhood more, still simple to use day to day but doesn’t fall apart once projects get a bit more complex

any recs for a stupidly simple project management software? notion and clickup have too many bells and whistles, obsidian isn't suitable for working with teams

@S_N_SH_E_ in the next 5 years? probably not, long term, maybe, but short term usually hurts more because technology changes faster than people and systems adapt

Be honest: Do you really think AI will create more jobs than it destroys in the next 5 years?

@Tech_girlll judgment, knowing what’s worth paying attention to, what to ignore and what actually solves a real problem

The internet made information free. AI made execution easier. So what becomes valuable now?

@sickdotdev honestly, most small businesses end up with a pretty small stack: email/chat, invoicing, calendar, and one place to keep work organized. for us that last part is Teamhood, mostly for tasks, timelines and not losing track of who’s doing what

What tools do small business owners actually use every day? Everywhere online I see “50 must-have tools” lists, but I can’t imagine anyone realistically using even half of them. Most people I know use just a few things: - payments - invoicing - maybe a CRM - something to get customers That’s it. What tools are actually part of your daily workflow?

@vikrambuilds spending days debugging something complex just to realize the issue was one stupid line I overlooked in the first 5 minutes

Worst thing happened with you as a dev..?

this post perfectly captures what nobody tells you about project management when coming from a technical role you think the hard part will be timelines and tasks but the real challenge is handling constant uncertainty while trying to keep visibility thsat you can't control

@Shivam25mishra for some people, yeah, not because AI itself is bad but because it creates another layer of noise, tools and endless optimization instead of focused work

Unpopular opinion : Ai is making people less productive and more distracted.

@r0ktech probably, the interesting part is that the next big thing usually looks underwhelming while AI is still dominating attention

Is there really going to be a next big thing after AI?

@sandislonjsak AI feels more like cloud computing than the early internet, massive infrastructure costs sitting underneath it and someone has to pay for the compute eventually

Internet was really cheap and got basically free over the time. AI models on the other hand…

@yukihima_dev Linear feels faster and more opinionated, ClickUp feels more flexible but also easier to overcomplicate, personally I ended up preferring something more in the middle like Teamhood, where you still get structure and visibility without the system becoming the work itself

Why Linear and not ClickUp ?

@nghura @asana @clickup Asana feels cleaner and easier at the start, ClickUp is more customizable but can get overwhelming pretty fast, personally I ended up preferring something in between, like Teamhood, enough structure for timelines/dependencies but not too heavy day to day

Trying to decide which is a better task management tool? @asana or @clickup for a freelancer?

@sahill_og by focusing less on tools and more on fundamentals, frameworks change fast, problem-solving, systems thinking and communication don’t

Real question: How do you stay relevant as a developer when the tools change every 3 months?
