Are Unit Tests Necessary in Software Engineering?@StephenSamuelsen
It's an odd thing because if robots have all the jobs then will they start consuming products and services? At the same time as like Friedman said, it's not smart to dig with spoons. So maybe the government will help the average man and we'll get another land grab or grants to revitalize rotting towns. since frankly we don't all need Teslas, 70 inch tvs...
Would you agree that imposter syndrome diminishes as your network of colleges increases, and you're able to share struggles and knowledge?
yeah I could see that. maybe talking to people working at other companies yeah
The remote jobs seem to be a little more difficult to get within the last year or so.
100%
This whole office experiment is unsustainable from the jump
Thank you, seemed to have worked. Cheers from Australia
Oh yeah, literally nobody used any of the amenities at most of the jobs I worked at. The only decent amenity I had was provided free lunch from food trucks 4 days a week.
that's pretty nice tbh
This is a good thing IMO. But we need to move on from the idea that everyone has to work full time. It has been inevitable since the start of the industrial revolution that people would be replaced in producing things. We need to move on from "jobs" and chase self actualization.
What monitor do you have? How do you like it for work and do you use it for gaming at all?
Samsung Odyssey G9. I just use it for work and honestly I love it because I can have multiple instances of Rider open and have chrome open while im programming. It's a HUGE monitor though and weighs a ton, so you need a massive desk if you plan to put it on your desk lol. I have it mounted to the wall because my standup desk was starting to lean backwards because of the weight lol.
it can't be stopped. find purpose and responsibility outside of your job now, because getting laid off without those things CAN destroy you. and vote for the citizen's dividend (UBI).
It's already impossible to get entry level jobs. You just haven't experienced this as you HAVE/HAD A JOB.
Mathematicians automated themselves out of jobs by inventing computer science.😂. It just led to more cool jobs.
Being picky about repo standards are fine. It’s just really annoying when someone doesn’t like the style of something, but it is perfectly reasonable. I had a guy that used to complain because he didn’t like ternaries. The code was fine, he just preferred not using them. That’s the stuff that’s annoying because it’s just personal preference. Everyone has personal preference, but few personal preferences should be expressed in a code review IMO
ha yeah there is always the ternary operator guy who doesn't like them. I put that in the same category as not using curly braces on if statements in C#
Sam said “AI will be the end of capitalism”
That's false. We get efficient and doing some tasks. Systems are getting more complex there will be always a need for a human for the next decades.
The job economy is obsolete. No need for jobs as a requirement to live in the future…
some self checkouts are being converted back to cashiers due to theft.
Idk. All the physical manual labor jobs are still the same. I pick up and deliver bagged debris containing asbestos, mold and lead. Sometime I gotta climb stairs to pick up 50 bags and put them in the box truck. Then take down plastic on the walls and pull out the staples that held the plastic sheets up out of the walls. If Ai can do all that and adapt to different scenarios. Then I’ll be scared
The problem is America. There is no social movement that cares about the lesser fortunate. Society is your problem, not automation or the economy. America is heartless, ruthless and completely antisocial. And you even like it that way, almost like a religion.
This is a bad take. Automation is not a new concept. It’s been happening since the Industrial Revolution. Jobs evolve every time, this will be no different. There will be a period of adjustment but the jobs will come back when big tech realizes AI cannot write their programs for them. Anyone who thinks this have never used AI to program
I think so too and your right about the writing of code is a hard task in of itself, also I think we are in a bubble
Speak to local and state government about it
automation isn't the problem. it is the centralization of wealth into just a few entities. gone are the days where someone could get a job at the local butcher and support a modest family and lifestyle. we should embrace technology and automation, but we should vehemently fight against the political powers that allow too much centralization to occur. but since that will never happen, try to cope with modern existence in a non self destructive way
What do you think you’ve been doing by writing software all this time? Automation.
Agile in most cases is an excuse not to think. We add features or change software on a whim, because otherwise we're not being flexible. That's great situation to be in for non-technical people. Points are a great way to game developers "good boy" upbringing into pushing as many points as possible to the detriment of their career, software quality and users. All of this is made possible by free money either VC or government and monopolies. Money is drying up and we have layoffs & overall lack of opportunity in the field.
Buddy... 2 things,i proved this and on shorts... I worked next to a Tesla weld robot already, that was last year. I also, clipped a small bit of Elon 2023, on stage talking to a UAE prince, saying Ubi funding will be needed by 2030... on stage and super worried serious himself. I proved all this last year here, 2clips....
so Amazon's lying to us about retraining for the automation era to get a better paid job then
10% of the world's population are classified as idiots, and provide nothing to society. Now the bar has been raised to inclued smarter individuals that can't provide any use as well.
Insightful. He is raising concern for entry level working class people. Welders, cashiers, laborers, construction workers, drivers. What are they to do all of these jobs suddenly vanish.
i literally worked next to a weld robot room, for tesla... last year... itis faster and fixed by a guy on a tablet in 5minutes usually... it works faster and welds more accurate..
I work in retail and to be honest if you could automate more of my job I would still have a job. They already did it with self-checkouts. I just moved up into management so good luck with having a computer manage a multi-million dollar retail store
jobs change, they have always done like this. It is not possible to know the new jobs of the future.
Automation should make things easier...people should be more free to socialize, learn, and enjoy passions... But why does justice cost so much money? Why does education cost so much money? Why does healthcare cost so much money? Why does the cost to live cost so much money? Why do certain positions pay so much money? Because money is being exalted over life, and many in positions of power want to stay at the top. It benefits the government/big companies/schools if people 'need' money, so many of them don't want things to change or they say it can't change. Furthermore the system is all they know so they follow is blindly and wholeheartedly. Although there are those who agree it needs to change, but they don't know how or feel they have the power to change it. Money is the root of many evils..'Giants'have returned to the land. Greed and hypocrisy have consumed the ways of the people. They heap up heavy burdens to lay on people's shoulders, burdens they can't carry themselves, and they are unwilling to help. They make the outside of the cup appear clean, but the inside is dirty. "Peace! Peace!" they say but they make war. "Freedom! Freedom!", they say but they opress the people by putting work/money over life and charging them interest on the things that they themselves have withheld and stolen. A thief comes to kill steal and destroy. But Truth/Jesus came full of grace and truth and life. The world has been following a lie. A false testimony made by man. The way the system determines/governs "work" and "education" is the problem. People should be freely educated and energy should be focused to find real solutions to improve life. The system is a lie. They control the supply and they control the demand. Life is greater than money but the system puts money over life.. -Everyone can have what they need. -Greed is the problem, not the lack of resources or people willing to work. -No one should be a slave or feel helpless We need to work for true bread. Food that doesn't spoil. It's the greed and sinful ways of the world that creates poverty. Wicked shepherds, many in positions of power/places of authority who are supposed to tend to the sheep, have plundered the land and scattered the flock. They stored up riches for themselves and have hidden and forgotten the truth. The greater is supposed to serve the lesser. It's like 'Exodus 5:4-9', where Pharaoh reduces the supply of bricks, but increases the workload to keep the Israelites distracted from the truth that they are slaves. During that time, the Israelites became so use to the system that they didn't even know they were slaves or they accepted that's just the way it is.They were decieved and lied to about their history, so that they forgot who they were and where the true foundation/provision/strength came from. They became strangers in a strange land. The fig leaves/money/gifts are used to cover the nakedness/lies/hypocrisy. But the kingdom of God is truth and righteousness. True payment isn't money, true payment is of God and is wisdom and understanding. Wisdom dwells with love and truth. Life and life more abundantly. "This is truth, that they know you the one true God, and Jesus Christ who you sent." There are people who love to farm, people who love to cook, people who love build, people who love health and science, people who love to teach..there would be even more if we focused on the things that matter. If people are working but justice, love, mercy, and honesty/truth are being disregarded, then what is really being done? They try to make the outside of the cup appear clean, but the inside is dirty. The former should be practiced first and then the latter. What is the work that God requires? Believe on the one he sent/truth. "Seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness, and then all these things will be added to you."..because in Truth God gave all things freely. Jesus Christ/Truth came to testify/judge not to condemn the world but to save it; because the world was judging and condemning and claimed that its wicked ways were right, by misunderstanding and following traditions and lies. "If you abide in my word/truth, you are truly my disciples, and you will know the truth and the truth will set you free." "My peace I leave with you, my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give unto you. Let not your hearts be troubled and don't be afraid." "There is a place for you in my kingdom." "Love eachother as I haved loved you." The Battle Is The Lord's.🔥
having no work or less work is a really good thing. you can hang around be creative, explore "being", and get into higher spheres, etc. This is a bright future (for me) So, why do people fear ? Because they unconsciously know that their only purpose is to be slaves that serves a system that is not made for them but for an elite. Once their job is done they (you) are useless for them. Then you can receive your "injections". for health of course. 🙂 it's your choice to be free and to fight for being without purpose. having all the richness of what mankind reached.
Bills and taxes,dont go away...
Don't get too attached to your buggy whip making job. Careers will come and go. Be prepared to pivot. People who insist on sticking to a career will be left behind (telephone operators, travel agents). The best part of my Electronic Engineering degree wasn't the piece of paper (as so many non-degreed engineers state), but that I learned physics, math, chemistry and a bit of psychology and sociology. When I come across a new field, I try to understand it from first principles. That 17th century physics still explains a lot. Anybody who cooks is involved in chemistry. Money is a number. Borrowed money and people are the ultimate leverage. Know how to use both. That's how you get the 10X return When I retired, I became a financial investor, whether I liked it or not. You don't understand an investment until you have cashed out and paid taxes on it. Had to take care of my nest egg.
Personally, I do not thibk that. We are outsourcing it and AI is not going to go anywhere unless humans start utilizing more braincells for it. Personally, I can't wait to be paid x10 of my current wage. Howeve4, if you are talking at the length of our species lifesapn, I agree. However, this is why things change and wars and disputes happen.
We've been automating jobs since we stepped out of a cave. This is just the end game. Lets hust hope and pray there's light at the end of the tunnel, where we are all set free.
I think so too, this is just the logical conclusion and we’re pearing down a lot of industries, lord knows what’s going to happen
UBI❤
Great video! How do you like working with the .NET environment? I'm trying to decide between Java/Spring or C#/.NET on top of Python/Go
.NET is great. There are a lot of jobs available that pay well and there's a ton of growth for the framework in the future
Thats good because i didnt want to work anyway
100% agree, and large amounts of the population is ignoring this
I've been automating since 1998. We are automating other people out of jobs.
Just because we can does not mean we should.
It’s not automation it’s outsourcing to india and importing Indians
The core reason of mass unemployment is importing Indians to replace American tech workers
You have Indian only tech jobs
Masses of Indians were imported to replace American workers
What you see is a chainsaw replacing all those people who used to cut down trees with an ax. What you are not seeing is all the houses that were then built more cheaply due to the cheaper access to wood. Everything that gets automated helps society at the cost of some jobs, this has been going on for 1000s of years. The goal of an economy is not to have jobs, but to have things. Eventually we will have robots make everything and nobody will have a job.
Thats great to have more things and in a healthy functional society having to work less and produce more is a great thing but we don't live in a healthy functional society. We have jobs to have jobs just look at the various government roles with tons of red tape that requires N amount of people to do something as simple as box up a soldiers belongings and transfer them to another base. Our current economic model is the problem and I'm not a commie or socialist we need something new
Ok, so how is debt and police and propertytax paid??? You lose that argument heh
@@dertythegrower all of that shit is made up in people's heads people only need their needs of food, water, and shelter met. It's pretty simple money is really inefficient
can't tell if this is satire, it's giving tech lead
Good news everyone!
This is why i'm buying crypto and stocks with everything ive got. Im going to try to get real estate in the next couple of years too. I feel like the portal as closing, even as a software engineer, and if I dont invest every penny i can into assets now, my future is doomed
Japan saw this coming and they have prepared accordingly AND why they haven't mass imported the 3rd world like the West has (because they actually like their own race unlike Western globalists)
people have no idea how dark (literally and figuratively) the future is in the West ... BUT keep watching that sportsball and going to taylor swift concerts consooooomers
Thank you. I literally just made a video on this!
