I posted this link after reading all the way. Jason actually makes a good point - its just that this title is loud. Blog post itself isn't claiming the death of software engineering at all. If anything, it just shows that every five or ten years someone claims software engineering is dead.

Its not dead at all and it wont die either.

Why? chagpt, or figma or v0 can spin up a few pages of brochure site, even some blog posting level web apps, basic cruds you know. But I don't think it will replace full software engineering.

I work with a large codebase, thats almost 30 years old, multiple framework ( backbone, react, angular) and then java, python for backends. All from different phases and everything is stitched together to make it work, and have a well profit making business going on. There is no model or chatxyz that can dig throug all these connected apps and services and replace our engineering team. It helps us here and there- yeah a lot.
