I used to solve hardcore problems, now I just talk to Claude and try to dodge layoffs left and right.

Code was garbage before AI, now it's still garbage, but I don't have to take it out anymore. Amazing.

Juniors are doomed, nobody is writing anything ever again by hand.

depends on the industry .. for 80% of jobs 0 coding knowledge will be needed in 10 years.

for ai research, safety, aerospace, military, trading, gamedev .. those will probably still need coding for a bit longer.

I suppose one would have to work in a very specific novel and niche area to go against the grain and chose stacks that are not chosen by majority.

I suppose work organisation, leadership, soft skills, working in areas with inherent uncertainty will be key for defending employment in near future

They can be easily replaced. I suspect we are just engaging in a form of self deception by thinking these choices we make are more than arbitrary decisions driven by nothing but our taste...

> There is a clear multi-step skills roadmap everyone is following with expectations per role/department

interesting... I suppose this requires someone at the company actually knowing what the roadmap and desired end goal should be, I feel like exactly this is lacking in a lot of places right now

In my humble human opinion everything digital has been or shortly will be conquered by AI.

You can either embrace it, learn to how to use and deploy AI or try to find a way out into the real world, until robotics will inevitably catch you in several years, for some professions with manual aspect you could have maybe decades of time.

did you consider tier 2, semiconductor suppliers qualcomm, nxp or go tier 3 - arm? I would say these will allow more technical depth than tier 1s, but will remove you from the end customer product, and some people find that unsatisfying.

customer facing companies with engineering culture also come to mind, apple, google etc. I assume you are in Europe? you have Bosch Research, Fraunhofer or Dolby in US, this might overlap with your stated experience.

I dont have experience in quants or trading but I heard they can go pretty deep and hard.

I focus more on specs, product and outside behavior these days. Colleague showed me a fancy plugin he made for emacs today at work. I congratulated his efforts and mentioned I dont open text editors anymore :shrug: ...

I'd feel better to have that kind of person out of my community.

First of all, did he not pick the language for Bun himself? Then introduced bunch of memory bugs, sound like skill issue cascade.

I remember some years ago in podcast touting how amazing Zig is to allow them being so performant which was the claim to fame for Bun, now to turn around and shit on the thing. Interesting persona.

Every hour spent on acquiring hard skills is an hour wasted that could be otherwise better spent on licking someone elses boot!

Soft / social skills. Any skill requiring engaging with the physical world (robots will take that over eventually but not just yet), digital world is already lost.

Anyway why do you want skills? If it's for economic purposes we are nearing cut off period after which no amount of skill will enable social mobility. Either u managed to lock in capital by now or ur done kind of situation...
