Your AI 'senior engineer' collapses the second you add a real database. Turns out it's just really good at writing toy apps.

Why does ChatGPT always give the same basic boring answers, but Claude and Gemini actually feel like they have original thoughts?

Once you learn the usual signs of AI writing, which really happens after you use it daily, you’ll start seeing what I already see: most comments, reviews, and even news articles are AI now.

Being a full stack dev isn’t a rare skill anymore. Millions of bootcamp grads can do it. We should prioritize chemical or materials engineers instead.

It's wild how many ai startups are just a ChatGPT wrapper with a slightly better prompt

panic over AI is way overblown

AI didn't print money fast enough. So they printed pink slips instead.

@0x45o skill rot's real, but reversible

how fast is my brain power declining because of ai?

@rand_longevity 15 months? that's generous

your job will not exist in 15 months

@systemdesignone vibe breaks when reality hits

SOFTWARE ENGINEERS ONLY Why are there zero successful vibe-coded apps?

@jdegoes both, but now we hear the quiet dumb too

Is LLM dumbing everyone down by a factor of 100x or is it just emboldening some to speak who would have in former times wisely stayed quiet?

@nicdunz steamrolled by oai, hired anyway

you actually do want to get steamrolled by openai by doing something they havent done yet but will soon do because theyll just hire you

@icanvardar performative hustle at its peak

linkedin turned unemployment into a personal branding opportunity

@thejustinwelsh basics done daily beat genius

It's amazing how much of doing great things is just doing basic things.

@Suhail specialization's dead, polymaths win

After a brief grieving period for skills I have and loved, I’ve come to realize all these skills now feel like cave man skills. Humanity becoming highly interdisciplinary and polymath is a wonderfully bright future. Ofc a biologist shouldn’t be stuck on a software engineer.

@trikcode c++ puns memory leaks, not vibes

I haven't seen a C++ vibecoder yet. I wonder why?

@danmartell neediness repels, chill pulls in

Everything wants you when you want nothing.

@NoahKingJr value shifts from syntax to architecture

Is coding becoming less valuable because of AI?

@davidpattersonx water fear is real but overblown

Their pretense of intellectual superiority has worn very thin now that leftists have expressed concern that we will run out of water because of data centers. It's frightening that these are the people who think they are improving the world by deciding what's best for us.

@jenzhuscott grid fails before brains do

AI doesn't have enough electricity to replace human.
