I'm taking a break from this industry until the madness blows over. I cannot even, anymore.

With the current direction of this industry, I fear you will come back to something that is both unrecognisable and terrifying.

If there is anything left to come back to.

More likely you’ll return to an industry utterly swamped in technical debt.

You could be the only one producing sane products in an insane world. But you won't get paid for it. The people mandating Claude Code are the people dictating large-scale money flows.
