@tmikov Hear me out. Let’s say we currently employ 50M to work on and maintain 1M programs. I think the future is just 50M working and maintaining 50M programs.
It amazes me how alien honest enthusiasm seems to so many people, as if that kind of high could only come from cocaine or other drugs. You don't have to go through life feeling this detached or deadened. Come hang out with some new friends who dare to dream!
@hammer_mt I’ve been thinking about this as I transition from being a “software developer” to an “AI operator”. How to price the work as a solo contractor? Love the angle of token portfolios.
“Anyone can code” was always true in the personal computer era.
AI didn’t democratize coding. The PC already did that.
AI demolished the excuses.
The separator was always work ethic and curiosity.
Dang, I saw this dude on lex Friedman and thought he was a cool guy, turns out he’s just another hype dude that just says provocative things to see what sticks. He’ll be slamming slop in 2 months when that’s cool again.
Slop is just a feature suggestion wrapped in code that nobody has any emotional attachment to. It's an executable idea. Who cares if the code needs to be rewritten. I love slop!
