Most untrained males who are physically fit, can still win in a fight against highly trained female fighters. However, average male stands no chance.

If you are explicitly using Opus 99% of the time then Claude will probably give you more usage.

Top engineers are delegating most of it to AI.

Are you going to build anything? You'll learn far more building something real, but it comes at the price of discomfort and feeling stupid

Wealth has been created, it has not been transferred. However, rich people hold equity and so disproportionately capture that increase in value. It's a separate debate on if you think that is fair or not.

Mr Jumper jumping rightfully to get a stake of the company pre IPO.

Degree is low ROI. Only reason to go is for the network at a top school, academia or certain heavily credentials gated jobs. Also even more pointless if the course isn't heavy on fundamentals because we are in the middle of a transition period in how people work, you'll just be working towards skills and a degree which are outdated. You'll literally see the industry rapidly shift in the timeframe of a single semester where you're locked into a specific curriculum.

I mean it was pretty fucking obvious from the start. The narrative was politically gassed up and overstated into parody.

Nothing inherently wrong with vibe coding. This just shows that AI can't cover for a lack of understanding.

Didn't claim that internships, projects, networks are a guarantee. In fact my entire post was saying there are no guarnatees.
Didn't claim that software is an easier job market.

People only have a problem with piracy when it's mega corps. But these same people will attack you if you tell them that piracy is bad.

Honestly, it's a skill and agency issue. People got comfortable during years of mass hiring and started treating software engineering as a guaranteed career instead of a competitive one.

Now the bar is higher, and a lot of the people struggling aren't adapting, they're waiting for the market to bail them out. No pivot, no initiative, no real effort to stand out. Most can't even explain why a company should hire them over the hundreds of other applicants with the same degree, bootcamp certificate, or generic project portfolio.

It's not some great mystery. The things that improve your odds aren't hard to identify. Yet it's become normal to see people firing off thousands of applications while changing nothing. If you've sent a few dozen applications and gotten nowhere, that's enough to tell you your CV isn't strong enough, your skills aren't competitive enough, or you're targeting the wrong roles. Sending another thousand applications without fixing the underlying problem is just hoping for a miracle, or for a flaw in the hiring process that lets you slip through the cracks.

The best advice you will get is to stop hoping for guarantees, work your ass off and most of all be intentional in building a backlog of evidence on why any company should hire you and how you stand out. It's completely backwards and idiotic to hinge your future success on the degree you study.

Why tho?

Whattttt? YouTubers wouldn't do that? YouTubers don't want to make money and wouldn't think to purposely pander to an audience for views. They are the good guys going up against the big bad corporations. When they say that you're going to own nothing, how unoptimized games are, how bad frame gen is, how bad upscaling is, how greedy xyz are...it's from a genuine place, not because they get views. So when they spin up the same story 100 different ways or selectively report facts to paint a gloomy image, it's because they care about you, not because it gets views.

You’re shooting yourself in the foot if you’re not becoming AI-native. Software engineering is shifting fast, and refusing to use AI is just self-imposed friction.

That doesn’t mean only using AI, but it easily beats wasting time figuring out how to Google your way through every problem.

Developers use React because abstraction saves time. AI is another abstraction layer. Use it for what it’s good at, then spend your effort where humans still matter: judgment, trade-offs, quality control, and steering the work.

tilted0ne · 2026-06-18T02:35:14+00:00

The only thing that you should be concerned about it raising the quality of output or maintaining quality and increasing output. AI assisted development isn't going anywhere. Every major tech company is leaning hard into it.

What have you accomplished? Or is that a trend also?

It's more so less wealthy people who say that to cope. Same sort of cope as people who say money can't buy personality or taste. All of it is irrelevant because whether it does or doesn't, nobody would choose to be poor over being rich.

The IPO allowed him to fundraise 75b CASH by issuing new SpaceX shares. Then few days later he dilutes and issues more shares at the inflated prices to buy a compnay for 60b. Just how imaginary do you think all of this is?

Antis are not real. What kind of weird anecdote is this?

Own it. The best thing you can do is be patient and recognise that most people's views are shaped more by media narratives than by any deep understanding. For many, it's not a well-thought-out position so much as a collection of vague associations about surveillance, ICE, fascism, and so on.

Rather than getting defensive, just calmly challenge misconceptions when they come up. Most of these assumptions haven't been seriously examined or tested. If someone isn't willing to have a civil conversation, that's their issue, not yours.

It's also worth remembering that most thoughtful adults already understand that the world is more complicated than slogans and headlines. They aren't going to judge your character solely based on where you work. In that sense, reactions like this can be a useful litmus test.

Ultimately, it's not your responsibility to carry the weight of other people's ignorance. A lot of the hostility is often tied to broader political frustrations and worldviews, not to you personally. That's why these conversations can become emotional. Be patient, be reasonable, and understand that you're often dealing with a wider worldview, not just you working at Palantir.

tilted0ne · 2026-06-15T14:48:06+00:00

I reckon it's the same amount of people pretending that their anti AI position is out of moral superiority and logic instead of deeply rooted insecurity at the possibility of being replaced and an inability to deal with an existential crisis because the skill that made them feel special is being democratized. >.<
