they need to be held accountable now.

what are your thoughts on Software engineer replacement. My team has already seen big reductions. Q/A team is gone. Software Engineer reduced by a third. Scared for the future

Hmmm, is there any insight if these are really getting much better at coding? Will hand coding be dead within a few years, just human typing in english?

I'm a lead developer of one of codebases which is heavily reliant on atleast 6 different apps. Apart from my projects own milestones, I also have its own bugs/fixes. Then every other day some one wants a feature. The requests are so overwhelming that I do , "please speak to my manager". Because thats the only valid way of getting things done on a agreeable time, the time at which both me and the person expecting the feature can reasonably expect.

When I started my web dev career. I have to say Rails was the easiest to get into(It was Rails 4 then). You need to give into the magic in the beginning. I still love it and is main goto thing unless scalability is millions of requests per second. Some problems I had - Upgrade from Rails 4 to 5 was a pain - Memory was a big problem in some apps
