Really, thoughtful and balanced write up. Striking a balance between keeping skills like reviewing and writing well structured code and using the black box to do for it or help speed you up is to going to be hard to strike. Then again, we have gone through similar shifts before e.g. LSP, search engines, stack overflow, etc.

I don't know, I suppose that as things change, they tend to remain the same in a strange way. Definitely, a disorienting time to be a software engineer right now. Even more so for new grad devs.

I need to build something similar for my job, so this already gave me couple of ideas. Thank you for sharing this! How did you aggregate all of this data? Did you fetch it from EDGAR? Or do you have a subscription to CapIQ or something?

Super insightful article. Unfortunately, I think I might be a type A procrastinator. Over the last couple of year, I've found it especially hard to make any meaningful progress any of my side-projects/ideas. Has anyone else been in the same boat? Did you get yourself unstuck? If so, how did you do it?
