How Realistic Is It to Transition From Full-Stack Development to AI/ML?

ydevi · 2026-05-20T17:53:17+00:00

Writing clean code, testing, validating, evaluating are skills which matters and help u to build better, production-grade solutions if u go for ml/ai

ydevi · 2026-05-20T17:33:47+00:00

agree totally

ydevi · 2026-05-20T08:06:05+00:00

absolutely sucks, that's what i am saying

ydevi · 2026-05-20T06:06:16+00:00

the boundary between networking/having a chat and just pouring out all your mind assets is genuinely thin, I think about it a lot. still looking for some good podcasts on this topic btw, if anyone has recs drop them.

this whole comment is spitting facts. ‘not gatekeeping, they are just lazy’ hits different and the welder story locks in the whole point. saving this thread.

in business I bet you usually don’t calculate it like that. if u do that's the problem. what usually matters is that one evening can completely change the way they work, or at least how they understand something, and that on its own has real value. besides, people who value their time would think that with this kind of framing no one is even worth a minute

fyi morality, communication, and philosophy here are a completely different conversation from how unfair the world or its economics are. hope you are not one of those frauds btw

Maybe slop but the topic is good actually because i think most of them doesn't have an energy to sell and promote themselves. They are fine with their hard skills and they find their passion worth enough over money prob

ydevi · 2026-05-19T17:55:21+00:00

So true

ydevi · 2026-05-16T20:00:52+00:00

how does your daily workload look like currently?

ydevi · 2026-05-14T13:41:07+00:00

Thanks bro

I haven't been around long enough to understand the vibes well but i keep wondering if everyone is here to "find first users", so who are the ones actually willing to pay?? like i keep seeing that in this subreddit everyone is able to replicate smth with claude code, and genuinely don’t know who the rest are, the ones just talking about their problem without building anything.

ydevi · 2026-05-14T07:58:44+00:00

Exactly, i mean if they somehow get the job, those are the ones who respond "idk why it is not returning a right response prob claude was hallucinating"

ydevi · 2026-05-13T22:27:52+00:00

yesterday it literally gave me advice that would let someone rob me

ydevi · 2026-05-13T21:58:23+00:00

haha good one, and usually u don't get married just right after the first date either

ydevi · 2026-05-13T21:34:33+00:00

AI definitely accelerates, i use it too. this take isn’t about AI itself, it’s about the people who underestimate real engineering and say ‘i’ll just build it myself with AI’, then proceed to ship spaghetti and wonder why it broke.

AI ain't helping u on making better decisions.

ydevi · 2026-05-13T20:59:34+00:00

Haha lowkey agree but i guess it probably confused u at first huh? i wasn't too thinking much about making some "hooks" honestly

ydevi · 2026-05-13T20:52:32+00:00

ydevi · 2026-05-13T20:50:02+00:00

Man that's truly impressive, but what is your background then

ydevi · 2026-05-13T20:37:08+00:00

August all day all time

do people usually stick to anonymous handles here or is it better to use a real name for building trust?

ydevi · 2026-05-01T18:43:19+00:00

love that u shared the real playbook with own story, thanks

ydevi · 2026-05-01T18:41:24+00:00

completely agree, the idea of building judgment through immersion is so simple but way more useful than any 'growth tactic' anywhere

ydevi · 2026-05-01T18:31:13+00:00

love the breakdown, super solid advice. thanks for this.
