I just came to the realization that in the last months I really haven’t come across an app or piece of software that doesn’t have claude code in it. Literally zero promotion posts where it’s not written with AI. People using AI to write one paragraph.
I kinda knew half jokingly that the devs were going to be the first ones to be replaced. They like to say it’s just a tool… cope?
I still write everything by hand 🤷♂️ but depression and anxiety and stress from my contract ending in a month without anything lined up and only about ~3mos worth of savings and no family to help is moreso why im not doing anything you would see haha Im dealing with some existential stuff at the moment but I have no plans to let the robots write my code or even think for me while I can help it. Most software engineers I know are AI fans unfortunately
Hope you can push through it. I also got let go from my job. The feeling is surprisingly sticky.
