This is a followup on my previous post about how AI is not taking your job anytime soon, I thought it would be good to share some other sources and voices that back up my claims. I share both specific articles / videos, along with blogs and channels that have well-balanced content. These are more approachable “pop-sci” sources since I think that’s the audience I’m trying to reach here. Lastly, I end with some fun experiments you can try yourself so that you can better understand some of LLMs shortcomings.

I’ve had enough. Maybe this is controversial, maybe this is a “hot-take”, but let me get it out of my system:

1. No, Large Language Models (LLMs) are not going to take our Software Engineering jobs.
2. Yes, you should still pursue a degree in computer science and a career in Software Engineering.
3. Yes, we still need junior developers and interns.

I should stop here, but I suppose I’ll elaborate.

June 2024 marks the end of my six and a half year tenure at Yubico. This was a decision that I did not make lightly. Really, it only happened because the stars aligned on another opportunity that I could not refuse. It’s also something that’s been in the making for some time now. This post serves as my farewell letter and an answer to “what’s next” for me.

Most computer nerds like me probably have at least one or two key moments in their personal history of computing that have made a lasting mark. That could be the first time getting a BASIC program to run or the first time experiencing the Internet or its precursors. For others, it could be a particular machine or software for it.

For me, one of those moments was discovering the 1993 Drew Pictures video game Iron Helix. This game, this experience, was life changing for me. It set in motion a series of events that influenced me into the person I am today; its influence intertwined into the formative years of my youth.

This is not exactly the first topic I thought I would write about on what I expect to be an otherwise technology focused blog. But here we are and it was a quick one to write. 😂

Hiccups. Those annoying little spasms of your diaphragm that, at least for some, are very difficult to get rid of. But not for me.

How exactly did I create this blog? In this post, I go over the process, the technologies used, and what’s still left for me to build.

Hello you. I have no idea who you are. Right now I’m not really sure who my intended audience will be. Most likely like-minded high-tech individuals like myself. Or maybe not? Time will tell. I’ve had several false starts at setting up a blog and an online presence. But this time it feels different. Practice over the years has made writing, especially technical writing, a little easier for me. It doesn’t mean I’m any good at it.
