ex swe wagie due for a big win
I hate just about every interaction with tech people
for that reason alone this account is mostly me screaming to the void
I think 99% of people who are less than 2 years into tech should just quit and pivot to something else (ofc this refers solely to wagies).
Generally, the ability to negotiate a good salary depends on the scarcity of people with your skill set. In a market where supply greatly exceeds demand, unless you are truly exceptional there will be many of you, giving your boss all the leverage when hiring. From there he can make all kinds of demands (less pay, worse conditions, etc.) In other words what incentive would your boss have to meet your conditions when there's a flood of unemployed talent dying to work for peanuts?
The rest 1% of people (the exceptional ones) will probably be fine for a while, but it's uncertain if even they will hold any leverage in 3-5 years.
On the bright side, instead of playing the game with such shit odds, you can pump out your own shit, it's easier than ever.
@VinciRSS what does it even mean to be skeptical about LLMs when companies like Stripe are no longer writing code by hand? like it's already doing what we were promised
@Draw2Death@willpower9000@ChibiReviews what does it being popular have to do with anything?
his obsession with anime has prevented him from entering adulthood and taking real responsibilities, he's a 15 year old who is just chronologically 30
at 5'9-5'11 you look abnormally short every time you stand next to a 6'2+ guy which happens to you multiple times a day
it's all about the contrast, not the number itself
6'1-6'2 guarantees you won't get heightmogged that often since only a smol % of the population is significantly taller than you
@jensenjeans you would have to go thru caring about it to figure out about it not being effective, given they have invested only 5B in total that doesn't seem to be the case
@Fazeuncle189556@darkwanderer64@jensenjeans yes, for some reason people who get everything they want out of life are often considered retarded by the chronically online broke losers on here, it's their way of coping for their current situation
3 pro beats opus on many benchmarks too, but in practice Opus mogs the fk out of it so all of this is meaningless
tested the model, it feels like 3 flash, bad at intent, lazy, rushes to do tasks and uses minimal tool calling if not prompted to do so not even close to opus lvl
SaaS might be doomed, for these reasons:
1 - LLMs are becoming increasingly versatile with native tools built on top of them (such as Cowork, CC, etc). Over time, people will spend more and more time using them instead of traditional SaaS products.
2- You can now create semi-complex internal tools in a single weekend with Opus, no reason to pay contractors for that anymore.
3 - As writing software becomes widely accessible, far more software will be written and sold.
So basically supply will inevitably go up while demand slows down. Looks pretty cooked, as most fields do now.
@kuberdenis As of now I think mostly people who view programming as a means to an end have switch to no-code/low-code.
The coding perverts (fanatics) probably won't join us until the difference between manual coding and coding via LLMs becomes undeniable in terms of the time it takes.
