Every time I see someone saying “the hardest part of software engineering was writing the code itself”, I check their LinkedIn to find they only did junior level software engineering before they became a “founder”.

Think of software engineering as a pipeline. Historically, the hardest part was writing the code itself. Not the case anymore - honest question: how much of your code do you actually have to type at this point? For us it's probably <10%. As agents get more capable, the

@davidfowl They don't care. E.g in the web building business if you look at where it is now vs even say 5 years ago in terms of ease, regular people (non tech echo chambers) still don't want to click buttons

What happens often is some idiot L5 will write a 1-pager saying hey we should fix this. A VP will read it and go yes good idea, you can have it. The L5 says no you don’t understand, I have a full plate. VP says don’t worry, your workload has been reduced to 95%. I am that L5.

weirdest part of working at any bigtech is if you poke around, it's easy to find projects that can be done in less than 1 month and would save the company >$10MM but nobody gets around to doing them — usually because they're in a weird cross-cutting domain no single manager owns

People who haven't coded a single day in the last 10 years are the experts on what it means to be a programmer.

If you post about code quality, there is an army of influencers who are attacking you. This isn't about generated code but the new age of sloppy programming culture. Sloppy code is ok when you are building prototypes not when you are dealing with user data for X billions.

If you want to form bold opinions where software engineering is going, you should at least have written a single line that went into a production system in the last 10 years.

If you want to work on something shiny and bleeding edge, work on consumer products. If you want to work on something deeply boring but stable, work on platform / cloud products.

99% of PMs complain about their managers. 1% of PMs turn their manager into a career accelerator. The 1% stopped "managing up" and started creating mutual leverage. Here's the exact playbook ↓
