I think many of us working in tech tend to forget that the reason software engineering vs other engineering fields pays (a lot!) more, is a lot more flexible (WFH/remote), and has better perks:
Because this field changes much faster than other engineering fields. The premium is because fewer people are able/willing to pick up new technologies, methodologies so quickly.
But the field had ~10-20 years of stability, and so lots of folks forgot this is why a premium exists. And that AI is just another tech wave: software engineers who pick it up and master it will generally fare better; those not will struggle a lot more.

In the age of super intelligence, the current standards of living will look medieval.
The problems that society worries about right now will be largely irrelevant. It’ll be the equivalent of current society worrying about the bubonic plague.
in hindsight if @travisk wouldn't have been ousted. uber would have given a solid competition.

i regret to inform you that personal growth rarely comes from acquiring new knowledge and almost always from:
-getting humiliated
-showing up terrified and doing it anyway
-admitting you might be the problem

Others chase money. he’s trying to change humanity’s future.
tried claude code in terminal for a week and went back to desktop. eyes do pain seeing a black and white screen for hours.
I have come to conclusion that most that are token maxing don’t understand what their agents are really doing. it’s like many are given a F1 car key and they driving fast to nowhere. directions matters more than speed.
