claude fable just made developers obsolete
Engineering leader by day, indie dev by night. Process obsessive by necessity — 20+ years in high-stakes regulated software will do that.
Made Jr. and mediocre devs obsolete. The old-school hackers and "10x" (I hate myself for using that adjective) devs will level up. Also, never doubt the back-pressure from regulation, policy, and procedure.
I don't think this is entirely true. I think it will force juniors towards more of a software architect type education, which is a good thing. After all, you still need to provide LLMs direction. It was never as simple as "build me this app" and ending up with a production-ready system
@sebmatts @jackcarroll interested to know your thoughts...
