It's interesting how thin a skin the React crowd has. They think I'm being deeply antagonistic when, in fact, I've been holding my fire (and the confidences of consulting counterparties) for ~8 years. This has only served to make things look *better* than they really are.
The damage I'm seeing isn't just in the public sector, or limited to exceptionally bad cases. It's now ecosystem-wide, and JS-first culture owns a share of the blame.
But why do I care? A short thread.

Just applied to the STF fellowship in a project with #GNOME, #postmarketos and #alpinelinux. This was only possible after my dad and @craftyguy got me out of a terrible emotional deadlock earlier this week. Asking and accepting help is truly worth it.

If you make $20/ hour, you take home about $15 after taxes.
That night out isn't $300, it's 20 hours of your time, or 2.5 days of work.
That car isn't $60,000, it's 4,000 hours of your time, or 500 days of work.
Framing purchases in time instead of dollars will help you make better-informed decisions with money.
Always consider opportunity cost. Your TIME is valuable.

Got to love those "recruiter" emails. Today's favorite?
"Hey, Emilly. We've seen your resume, and we're really impressed with it. A bachelor's and a masters in Computer Science? 20+ years as a dev? I think you'll be excited at the opportunity to take a 70% paycut - - maybe more! - -and join our team as an independent contractor in an entry level customer service role! You can work from home in those totally legit job!"
I think the dead internet has eaten the whole online job hunting and application process. It's bots AI tailoring resumes to ghost jobs posted by company bots to collect resumes against some future need, which is all filtered by automatic screens built by more bots against vague requirements written by overworked folks due to random management demands.
I really wish my professional network wasn't so weirdly tilted towards chemical engineers and materials engineers.

Fucking BANGER of an opener in @pluralistic 's latest newsletter:
The Secret IRS Files revealed the fact that many of America's oligarchs pay no tax at all. Some of them even get subsidies intended for poor families, like Jeff Bezos, whose tax affairs are so scammy that he was able to claim to be among the working poor and receive a federal Child Tax Credit, a $4,000 gift from the American public to one of the richest men who ever lived

I've heard people wonder "as a developer, will AI kill my job?"
I think there is a definitely non-zero chance that it might...
But not because an LLM is going to write all the code, better, faster and cheaper, no. Because, when this bubble finally pops and tech companies are left with nothing but piles of out-dated GPUs and plummeting stock prices, they'll "fix" the problem the only way they know: by firing 30% of their workforce!

in reply to Alex Russell • • •My primary motivation is that I want the web to win.
What does that mean? Concretely, that means that I want folks to be able to accomplish most of their daily tasks on the web. A reasonable diagnostic metric is time spent as a percentage of time on device. JTBD fraction would be the natural leading metric, but it's wicked hard to track.
This phrasing – fraction of time, rather than total time – has the benefit of not being thirsty. It's also tracked by various parties.
Ok, but why?
