More than ever is time to be stoic. Have things but live as having nothing. But as obvious as the author says it was predictable too.
By now... I see in my country high prices for laptops with only 4Gb of Ram and Celerons.
It could do wonderful things if in 2000s people didn't buy the argument that hardware is so cheap so lets write unefficient code. Same hardware that could play an Youtube video in 2000s today cannot even open the website. Electron send hugs...
Now people are mad about AI until when? Oceans be drought like in Oblivion movie?
And professionals? The generation of specialists will pass... and people will blindly depend on Ai soon if the course of things doesn't stop or at least be corrected.
I think the author could have brighter days in future (and still thing in present in some hidden niches) as knowledge will always precious.
The main lesson I have is buy less TI and every buzz promises and find the place where knoledge and craft walk side by side.
