Can you weigh in or do you have any thoughts at all about the future

I hear this idea of this comeback to like there was a lot of people let go, a lot of junior developers let go.

And here you just have Matt Garman, CEO of AWS, saying that junior developers, it's stupid.

Don't replace them with AI.

Like, don't do that.

Do you have any outlook or any hope for the future of being a software developer and what that might look like?

I agree.

It is a fun time to be a developer.

And the way I look at it or the way I think about it is like the state of play.

There's studies on flow.

Obviously, you can go back to that as neuroscience.

Basically, the state of play is where we learn and have the most fun.

And it feels like playfulness.

It feels fun to do, even if it's challenging, arduous in some cases.

Maybe there's a learning curve.

You know, there's a research phase.

You got to get caught up on, you know, how an API or CLI works or whatever.

You got to learn things you didn't know beforehand.

And because I think there's a level of learning in all of this, even if the AI knows a lot, I think you should still know just as much as well or at least try to or strive to have understanding.

It's kind of wild to be in that space where it's the state of play.
