Couldn’t finish because of the AI. Write by yourself, cmon.

The time to solve that resource problem is before AI concentrates power, not after. It’s LESS likely to happen when a tiny elite increases their already huge amount of power.

If you make 900,000 but your rent and healthcare are 850000, how rich are you?

If it’s used by < 1000 people, it’s not a complicated app

FedRAMP will be the death of me.

so like 90% of software?

Scaling and edge cases with real users are the difficulty. Feel like this isn’t even that controversial.

we agree, i just think you are overestimating software complexity for most businesses

If that is the case, 90% software was never lucrative

This isn’t meant to be sarcastic: have you ever worked for a real company?

I would ask this: which is the worse failure mode —- design not quite right, or users can’t access the app?

On the other hand, teaching taste is quite hard, and is what people respond to and what designers learn.

Teaching programming is a bit of mostly solved problem, today anyway.


Realistically this doesn't mean all pure designers go away. Large orgs can have a small team that set the overall style guide and designs important pages, and the rest of the org just follows using AI to iterate.

That's the kind of question you will have to ask if you don't hire right. I get collapsing frontend/backend and PM/UI/UX but two then collapse code and product may be a bridge too far.

That’s what CEOs think lol. Let’s see if it pans out!

"I have an error when i click on the orange button, see screenshot. fix it."

You mean the brilliant mathematician with the correct insights into the modern American condition?

Yes, a billionaire and substitute teacher have the same political power in America. Couldn’t have put it better myself.

Yep, that's why substitute teachers' interests are more zealously guarded by Congress than the interests of billionaires are. Teachers have wielded the enormous power they hold to get a <= $250 deduction for school supplies they purchase with their own money.


GP said “a substitute teacher” vs “a billionaire” - why have you decided to pretend they said something else?

You’re also flatly wrong, given you’ve utterly ignored the trivial things wealth buys (for starters), but hard to expect accuracy when basic honesty is so lacking.


The terms are defined by the AI dealers!
