  • Sometimes its not even avoiding work. Sometimes there is not a lot to do. My core job at this point is very reactionary fixes for a legacy system at a large company. It does not really break though. But like, ysterday I had to replace a 15+ year old server. With another 15+ year old server I had here.

    Today, I basically have nothing going on, no calls, nothing to fix. I have been at the office for 2.5 hours dicking around on my phone.

    I used to fill the daydoing random training, but I have learned a lot.of what I can and care about with the resources I have. I basically run a couple of teams but they are all not very active. I could find a new job mayne but this one pays great and almost anything else wpuld require moving which I do not want to do for a variety of reasons.

    I am the only one even in the building 90% of the time.

    It does get old, but its also fairly cushy, and I am very happy to assist others when they message me or whatever for help, which happens a lot.

    AI coding is pretty grest for simple personal apps and scriots, but I would seriously question anyone using it for prime time published programs that are sold to others.

    If my shitty little RSS Microblog fails, it just hurts me, in a non harmful way.

    Also, you really do need to understand how to code to use AI properly and ask it the right things. “Build an app, Here are some.specifications for backend and baseline code.” “Add this feature, make sure it updates the database for the new settings.” “Add CSS to make these bhttons match.”

    That sort of simple shit that non coders won’t know.
