🗡️ Arise, But At What Cost
Solo Leveling made the Necromancer class change look like a cheat code. Leadership’s betting your engineering org on the same fantasy — minus the ending Sung actually got. 🗡️
Deprecated: How Engineering Learned to Treat People Like Legacy Code
Engineering used to hold itself to something higher than the transaction. Somewhere between the rise of the giants and the race to deprecate human work, we forgot Kant’s most basic rule. This is about that.
Stop Flinching: Engineering Built a Culture That Can't Take a Punch 🥊
Engineering optimized so hard for avoiding pain that it forgot how to take a punch. The result isn’t safety — it’s paralysis. And with AI mid-swing, flinching is the one thing you can’t afford.
⚔️ Execute Order 66: Engineering's Clone Wars Are Over
Order 66 already happened to engineering. Not as a memo — as a pattern. Hiring freezes. Platform teams defunded. AI adoption benchmarks. The chosen one integrated with the machine. Here's the full Star Wars map.
We Shipped a Fix for the Wrong Bug
Nobody ever asked for a tool that writes their code. Engineers filed a thousand tickets about bad requirements, unclear direction, and endless meetings. We closed them all as WONTFIX and shipped an AI that codes instead.
AI Isn’t the Solution. It’s the Mirror. 🤖🪞
AI isn’t fixing engineering. It’s exposing it. The same things engineers have been asking for, clear goals, context, autonomy, are now required for AI to work. We’re building better systems for machines than for people. That’s the real problem.
The Endgame of AI
Replacing the very people who power a consumer economy isn't smart. AI doesn’t buy used cars, finance loans, or pay rent. Technology should expand human capability, not quietly eliminate the economic engine that businesses depend on.
