Re:Ask HN: SWEs how do you future-proof your career in light of LLMs?

LLMs can help us engineers gain context quickly on how to write solutions. But, I don't see it replacing us anytime soon.
I'm currently working on a small team with a senior engineer. He's the type of guy who preach letting Cursor or whatever new AI IDE is relevant nowadays do most of the work. Most of his PRs are utter trash. Time to ship is slow and code quality is trash. It's so obvious that the code is AI generated. Bro doesn't even know how to rebase properly resulting to overwriting (important) changes instead of fixing conflicts. And guess who has to fix their mistakes (me and I'm not even a senior yet).

Actually, maybe you are right. Based on what I've read in this thread, I feel like my approach to finance management is a bit wrong. I probably need something that I can do bi-weekly or monthly.
The initial thought I have for something that I can use often is because I easily forget what I spent money on a single day since I often use cash. I'll have to re-think my approach on this...

I think excel is great for seldom use. But, it gets annoying (for me at least) to use for something that I need to edit everyday.
Also, don’t like MS Office (feels like bloat) and Google Sheets ( slow for me at times). I do use excel though for something that I don’t need to edit that often.
