          You just predict the exact date the company will fail, and buy the puts expiring the following month.

            In “eXpOsUrE” and “MaRkEt ExPeRiEnCe”

            100% this kid is getting just as fucked over as the rest of us, and because he’s young the corpos have a smidge more time to do so before he gets pissed off too.

                I hope all the CEOs like this guy go hard all in on AI and prove to the world that it’s a sound business decision.

                And if they’re wrong, may they never complain about the hourly rates of contractors they have to call in to dig them out of the hole their AI dug for them.

                  He is getting paid $15.50/hr
                  Which is the state minimum wage.

                      I fully believe this guy has no idea how horrific the things he's boasting about actually are.

                          I saw a question posted recently asking what age everyone was when they learned that they weren't going to get any rewards for working extra hard. I guess in some work it's harder to see than in others.

                            I'm 8-10 years from retirement and I'm fine with this. I always knew younger, better coders will come along. Anyone holding on to their 90s or 00s coding skills... Well... Good luck with that.

                            That, and this kid is still the very rare exception. I don't think he's representative of most 18 year olds.

                              They're saying it's because he's using AI. They have 250k+ lines of cursor (LLM/AI) generated code in their codebase

                                I built a website that uses ChatGPT API for no particular reason whatsoever. Can I slap AI-native on my resume?

                                  ......sure?

                                  This kid doesn't know what he's writing or why, he's just coaxing cursor to vomit up commits and apparently that's their only metric for success.

                                  I work with AI tools and with people who are absolute top tier Cursor users and their shit is always broken. They iterate fast but they absolutely do not fully understand what they're producing. It's great for rolling out flashy UI quickly (apparently the only thing investors care about), then you watch it all go to shit the second you push because every update breaks everything in horrifying ways. It's like watching the early days of enterprise C++/Java where everything was spaghetti, but 100x worse.

                                  I don't think this paradigm of AI is likely to rival a decent human developer, there needs to be a fundamental change in how the models work and how we use them. What were doing now is hoping quantity is somehow going to replace quality.

                                    "This younger person is better than you and will take your job" oh boy like that's something new that ceos have never said before.

                                    This is an attempt to manipulate workers into accepting lower wages for longer hours. That's what "AI" is to them.

                                      You can slap anything on your resume if you can explain it in the interview.

                                        The more CEOs believe this, the more I will be able to demand in salary about 5 years from now.

                                          It's astounding how many lowlifes are using commit counts to measure impact. It's just throwing bisectability out the window and promoting stupid tactics for quick returns.
