I agree that ai is going to squeeze mediocre and offshore engineers hard. Some of the rest of the article is kinda off... It sounds like this guy has never done consulting cause a lack of good requirements is the most dangerous problem for projects.
Also not sure where this dude went to school... I went to VCU. A good but not outstanding state university. I use what I learned there every week. How operating systems work, memory management, asynchronous processing, and engineering thinking in general. I do interviews for my company and coding boot camp folks know as much or more relevant code than I did coming out of college, but they immediately fail any question that isn't an example from boot camp. School taught me a lot.
Why the 3rd person voice? I’ll answer everything 🙃
As for the consulting - yep, never done it, but not sure how is it related to my point? I’m not advocating for a complete lack of requirements.
As for school - I’ve been to a mediocre college, I admit. On comparing boot camp graduates to college graduates - when you compare the 2 devs a year into their first job, I don’t think you’ll see any difference. There IS some useful things in a degree, but most of the knowledge anyway comes during the first real role.
