Good design is a signal that you care. People prefer products built by people who care. Markets reward good design. The end - Guillermo Rauch

First wave of AI: know it all
Second wave of AI: do it all

Despite its hardships, we oughta be thankful that we’ve been given the simplest possible instruction manual to a good life.

Exercise frequently—any exercise will do—, eat in moderation, meditate / pray, learn, share, spend time with friends & family…

But simple != easy

An easy tell for how good an engineer is is what % of their time they spend on instrumentation, measurement, profiling, telemetry, analysis (and how well they leverage this expertise during incidents).

For AI to outperform human coders, the context and prompt will need to be enriched with data from the live production system. This will lead to self-improving, self-repairing software.
