One of Gallup's priorities is probably to not piss Trump off.

Who knows, but everyone's got that on their mind, now.

>At higher levels you are responsible for taking your $n number of years of experience to turn more ambiguous, more impactful, larger scoped projects into working implementations that are done on time, on budget and meets requirements.

Is this not a job for LLMs, though?

LLMs are good at turning well defined requirements to code.

But even now it’s struggling on a project to understand the correlation between “It is creating Lambda code to do $x meaning it needs to change the corresponding IAM role in CloudFormation to give it permission it needs”

The LLMs are fantastic at writing terraform when you tell it what to do which is a huge timesaver, but good heavens is it terrible at actually knowing what pieces need to be wired up for anything but the simplest cases. Job security for now I guess?

I was able to one shot CDK, Terraform and CloudFormation on my last three projects respectively (different clients - different IAC). But I was really detailed about everything I needed and I fed ChatGPT the diagram.

I guess I could be more detailed in the prompt/md files about every time it changes lambda code, check the permissions in the corresponding IAC and check to see if a new VPC endpoint is needed.

I also predict an explosion of work for qualified devs. And I predict there will be an undersupply of them.

I think you can invert GP's point #2 for that one.

Here's a start: end immunity and masks for ICE. This will naturally improve things.

But that's not all. You can also naturalize people who are being productive citizens.

ELI5 how it makes my life better. Right now the blowback is making my life worse.

It's been a long time and our memory only goes so far back. I'm not even that old, but the time between WWII and my birth is waaaaay less then my current age. Jimmy Doolittle was still hosting Christmas specials on TV when I was a kid. Nobody knows who TF that even is now. I doubt half of America has even heard of the Third Reich. Sure, they know that "Nazi" is some kind of insult, but the rest is history forgotten. The last educational film on the matter was Indiana Jones III.

Those of us who remember history will continue to fight, and our numbers aren't small. Maybe one day we can begin to repair the enormous national and global damage that has occurred.

Yes. Depending on the country and situation, these things can take a long time. We have ours in the works already and it's looking like 1-2 years to go through.

Ideally they get snatched up by a competitor with more vision. You know who processes more volume than one guy with AI? Six guys with AI. I think it'll take the market a minute to relearn this.

The only thing that makes me happy about that is the fact that our entire economy just might not implode. But I think we'd be better off without LLMs at all. Oh well. Pandora Box is open and here we are.

I define it both ways on context.

If I won the lottery, I'd never work again and I'd work every day until I died.
