The Software Engineering Identity Crisis
"We’re moving from producers to managers of AI systems, from detailed implementation to expressing intent, from delivery to discovery through rapid experimentation, and from content creation to knowledge curation. Our role is evolving to blend creation with orchestration, building with oversight.
Overall, I think it’s fair to say that the nature of our professional identity is changing at its core."

The mad thing is that this isn't stupid use of #LLMs in some niche area. It's stupid use of LLMs with globally catastrophic consequences.
This is Microsoft having CoPilot seek the goal that false equals true in the ADO part of the .NET runtime, a system that is used by vast numbers of middlewares and back-end systems around the planet.

I just discovered I go blocked by somebody whose opinion and posts I highly value.
Since can't imagine (or remember) which interaction might have triggered this course of action, I tried to reconstruct our last interaction(s) from web searches, and discovered the following:
(a) This is practically impossible to find past interaction with specific accounts.
(b) A couple of other accounts *I* have been following formerly which now block me without me remembering any untowards interaction with them.
This all makes me unexpectedly sad.
I think I'll put in another Mastodon moratorium for an indeterminate length of time.
Looking back, Mastodon did not really work for me, with what I'd term "meaningful" connections. This very likely the way my mind works.
If anybody can recommend communities related to #lisp, #agile, #softwareengineering or #infosec, I'd appreciate if you could reply or DM. I am still missing connection there (after 2.5 years of Fedi, which should tell me something).
I just discovered that I got blocked by somebody whose opinion (and posts) I value --- for reasons I don't know.
On digging when our last interaction (most likely a post in one of his threads) was, I discovered 2 things:
(a) This is something that is difficult to find out in the Fedi.
(b) A couple of other accounts that blocked me and where I am equally not aware of any untowards interaction.
All this makes me unexpectedly sad and I think I'll now put in a Mastodon moratorium for an indeterminate length of time.
(What is true, is, that I am wasting too much time in the Fedi and WRT connecting to people it mostly doesn't work for me. If anybody knows of online-communities specifically related to #lisp, #infosec, #agile or general #softwareengineering OUTSIDE of the fedi, please send me a reply or DM. I am still missing those (after more than 2 year in Mastodon)).
