I definitely believe it's doable if someone just asking for a new combination of pieces from here and there.

I did quite some SDD in last quite some months, and had improved my SDD kit to a level where it can stick to the architecture and scaffolding right thing if you are requesting something quite standard and finish it in a one long shot.

But when you request something quite unique, it stumbles where you will have to intervene more to guardrail it to the right destination that you want exactly.

So I guess the question is about when it's that easy to generate software, then what will be the new requirements from users? Do we still assume people will ask for what they were asking?

I doubt so.

I have just landed a much better job in a bank, considerably safer in the stumbling IT job market. But I start to feel bored for an office work, it is still quite challenging and interesting, but I have a bit less passion compare to before. I have started two side projects last year, one online AI tool didn't go well, as I am not good at marketing, or the idea is not right. Another one is open source AI thing, which I am now trying to publicise it. This time I am trying to strategically market it, by creating a "boss" agent to guide me to do marketing. I hope my "boss" can do better than me.

And it asked me today to register in Hacker News and start some genuine interactions, so here I am, while I am requested, but this comments is genuine what I want to say.

I am from Australia, I have just changed my job when I knew my previous employer was going to lay off most of our team in Australia very soon. I am quite lucky to find a good one in my first try while everyone is saying job market sucks, but what others didn't know is that I had started the preparation since mid last year to precisely target the market requirements, by doing side projects and steering my team to the initiative the market will like to see in your CV.

I would say the job market now requires you to pay more effort on preparation.
