    Industrial workers in the 20th century probably never imagined being replaced by robots, but it’s happened on a large scale.

    There’s still plenty of industrial workers. The same will be true for programmers as AI proliferates.

    These jobs don’t go away, they just become more specialized

    But I will agree with the general notion that we as programmers are incredible fortunate to be able to work from anywhere, creatively, without physical labor

      creatively

      Git clone

      Ctrl+c

      Ctrl+v

      At this very moment, I’m at home, waiting for a pipeline to finish, after I copied some code from another of our team’s projects and edited it a bit.

      The pipeline config file was also, ofc, copied from another of our projects and had some file paths inside changed.
