I'm going to be a baker! just putting it off as long as possible because I don't want to wake up at 2am.

[–] diablomnky@lemmy.world 19 points 6 hours ago (2 children)

Every other baker gets up at 2am. Be the only 2pm baker out there for fresh evening breads!

Not a bad idea, would be nice with fresh sandwiches instead of shitty burgers or sausages when going home from some event at night.

Yes, I'm sick of morning people getting all the good stuff. I want to come home from work and sit in a cafe/bakery and eat nice things.

We need a night owls society.

To be fair having been in software for awhile, plenty of people were slinging slop before AI as well.

The difference is back then, we could block the PR, now management demands velocity at all costs.

It will catch up eventually.

IT guy here, not a programmer per se, but I have given up and am re-training into fraud detection. I want to take down some of the fuckers that ruined the industry before I die

[–] imvii@lemmy.ca 12 points 6 hours ago

I was in IT 20+ years.

I quit 4 years ago and opened an arcade. My only regret is I should have bailed out 10 years ago.

OK this really got me.

In before the AI shills show up, nice

I'm staying here, but my son who wanted to become a programmer has now decided to study for maritime officer. I don't know when AI will take over ships.

getting licensed as an electrician has been on my mind recently. i’m so tired of the whole industry

[–] ChickenLadyLovesLife@lemmy.world 15 points 11 hours ago

I quit programming and became a school bus driver. I'm 100X happier even if I am making like 1/6 of what I used to make. What I'll do after I'm replaced with AI I don't know, but at least it will happen long after I would have been replaced as a programmer by AI. I'm more concerned about what the parents will do when their kids are run over by the fucking AI-driven school buses.

Computer, I need software please!

Why won't it work? I asked for software!

[–] MoffKalast@lemmy.world 17 points 10 hours ago

You asked wrong! You forgot "no mistakes"

Engineering not. Computer science also not.

So what are you doing that is not those 2 that is dying?
