Ask HN: Are there software engineering areas that are safe from LLMs invasion?

Are there any software engineering areas that are safe from companies forcing you to use AI editors to work? Like low-level architectures, electronic, crypto, ai, etc.Maybe other related or not so far areas like SRE. How is SRE these days? Can you still work the way you want to work? Are you being forced to switch as well?

Maybe not everybody is flexing but at least people are not complaining about that, like for this web browser.

> Japanese games are often notorious bad on the technical details. Their focus is on the gaming part. Though, it has become a bit better in the last years, but usually because Japanese Companies have diversified into international teams.

So when it's technically bad, it's because the company doesn't have foreigners, when it's good it's because non-Japanese people are working there. Noted.

I don't really care and thought about a specific metric.

If you have experience in the video game industry, then I think you get my point but I also enjoy arguing about metrics.

In this case the "actor" was referring as a role in the industry so more about an aggregation of metrics I guess.

People buying and flexing with stuff that have "Designed in California" engraved on them and being offended with an Open Source software that just want to say is it developed in Japan.

Stop over thinking and just appreciate people work.

And meanwhile, Japan has been the biggest video games actor in the industry for the latest 50 years, so I guess there are some engineers over there.

As a nomad traveler, this is the reason I stopped using Google as my primary search engine.
