    I never thought I’d be a luddite in my 20s.

    I remember being so in love with computers and learning about technology and reading science fiction.

    Now I’m a programmer and I despise the future we’re heading towards. It’s only going to get worse.

    Fuck me what a horrifying/exciting time to be a computer science student. I feel like I’m either going to be obsolete by the time I’m handed a degree or my job will basically be doodling and asking a robot butler to do everything for me.

      So I went to college in the early nineties. I had a friend who was vacilating between a cs degree and math degree because cs did not look like it was going anywhere given how mature the mainframe systems were. Needless to say that changed by 1995.

    Tried it and it was the first time I was truly impressed by AI coding. It’s still not useful for me professionally but it’s getting close fast.
