From @danielpunkass.micro.blog on making things: A lot of people like to make things, and making things is great. But if you want to be a software developer, you have to enjoy fixing things. If you don’t enjoy fixing things, you’ll never be good at software. Nailed it. This is the part about the AI-fueled "everyone will become a developer" future that I have a hard time seeing. Will more people than ever before write software, or make websites, or even make an app? Yes! Will a significant portion of these new developers go back to paying for the very same apps they hoped to replace after they realize how much time they are spending fixing things? Also yes.
