A more concerning option is that he does see the value, but the temptation of the zero-effort-machine is too strong.
Learning to put in enough effort for engineering takes - took - years of education, where double digit percentages failed each year. Some of us barely made it through the filter. I have no confidence I would if I encountered it as a youth today.
I never really got it. I think it depended bigly on which domain and stack you were in.
These skills are all less valuable today, btw, along with roughly anything that would have allowed someone to thrive economically pre-2025 in spite of occasional accusations of high-functioning autism.
The issue is not that programming is getting automated. The issue is that the only skills that retain value are in low supply among programmers - and every other career you've considered retraining for.
Great time to be in sales.
And that's just sorting out my self-image. Convincing someone who controls the pursestrings that I'm adding value was hard already.
I don't want to celebrate UK roads too much. The majority of roundabout users in the UK are not indicating properly. Too many people are stopping at them when they have priority. Lanes are just a suggestion and using the correct lane is an invitation for someone to drive into the left of you.
In other areas: enough people don't know how to use a slip road that it becomes a problem to those who do. Likewise the flashing ambers of a pelican crossing. Lane discipline is much worse than on the continent, to the point you can see it creating traffic jams. Lots of people are driving big cars without the confidence needed to remain in their own lane.
There are millions of drivers who've never passed a theory test. We could do with more ruthlessness.
Oh, well there's the problem. Apple isn't catering to millennial jeans fits any more. Only half-joking.
True, that's the other side of it: my daily work has lost the fun reward loop and I'm being alienated from my colleagues. But I still have colleagues!
High productivity is generally good for the employee, unless you're productive enough you run out of work to do. So how much code is needed?
(IDK if there's a more accessible alternative to imgur now)

A nice reminder to keep passwords offline.
Yeah, you might. I assume you're a principled person.
In my experience, the less principled simply leave their shit all over the place for us to deal with.
But I also think this is an example of a slight disingenuity in RISC-V being referred to as open-source. It's borrowing the clout of open-source software projects where the end user has the freedom to compile them at home. I can't fabricate a CPU at home, I'm still beholden to whatever patents the manufacturer chooses to license. SiFive have a >billion dollar valuation, for a business based on selling licences.
There's no anything. Getting to Wales is easier than getting to Devon for most of England. You can do it accidentally.
1) I rarely get any feedback, particularly not feedback as detailed as this, with a single reason for failure 2) Employers habitually bend the truth around interviews: interviewing for jobs that don't exist, that are already filled, reneging offers 3) Not being hired after an interview doesn't mean you failed it. They're more like dates than exams.
So do car alarms.
I'm not convinced this is a business model I want to exist. We had an internet before it, and Google, and Facebook. I'm increasingly sad we can't return to it.
