I like this. Encapsulates the angst I find myself feeling about whether it was worth spending decades getting good at programming only to discover that AI agents can, you know, just do it.
I think I retired just in time.

@shayman I feel the same way, but from the support side. Seeing these systems answer questions that once took years of expertise to understand and resolve is crushing.
