List of reasons why:
1. he's more competent.
2. nepotism.
3. manager is racist
4. the company has better leverage over the jeet and can turn him into a psedo-slave dependent on them for a visa
5. jeet has blackmail (unlikely)
anyways, good luck and make sure to wokecode your question if ur manager isnt based

You get satisfaction in solving tough problems that no one on your team is able to solve. For example, there was a problem that existed for many years at a former company I worked at that not even the lead dev was able to solve. Lead dev later quit. Company moved to new ownership, and I investigated the problem when working on a new feature. Within three days, I figured out the perfect solution. I then realized the former lead dev was a lot stupider than I thought despite appearing intelligent to others. Ironically, he became a high level manager at the new company.

They won't even offer you the job because it would betray that they are paying what equivocates to slave wages.

Part of the reason why boomers complain that groceries are expensive but think their kids are making so much money is because they underpay their third world workers and women so much that they expect you to be doing the same.

If We raised the minimum wage or removed it altogether these boomers would all lose their companies to normal market forces.

Had around 5 years of experience developing small apps (python, angular, Vue, Rails), decided to go for a big company (not FAGMAN) in cyber security - got a DevSecOps role.
Super comfy, just SAST, SCA, DAST scans and a threat modeling using a small platform once the project starts (basically having a meeting to fill out a form and ask them to finish the tasks before the project finishes).
My tech experience does come in handy to help devs fix vulnerabilities, but the most fun part is that I couldn't help automating most of my work with python scripts, creating a monday.com project/repo/scans structure for the whole team that would tell when a scan was due, generate monthly reports and fuck off in my free time.

You don't have to get a job as a programmer, just get a normal IT job and automate it away, I'm the most valuable asset in the team and my manager even told me I was making it quite impossible for them to deny me a raise.

I do devops for a medium sized private company. Just joined my current team a few months ago. I graduated with no technical experience and started at customer success at a tiny startup. Stuck around, eventually transitioned to a sysops/cloudops role. Startup got acquired and eventually I was moved to the devops team. Still a bit new to terragrunt/terraform and the like but I'm having fun and my boss seems to like me and like the fact that he got a more junior guy essentially snuck through the backdoor. Gonna stick around at my current company for at least a few years until the startup payout plan is finished, and then reassess where I'm at from there. Feels like I've stumbled into a legit career from nothing, which is an amazing feeling.

>>108297174
>I don't understand this attitude, if you have any economic sense it's straightforward that the poverty of the world is your poverty as well
Can't do anything about it cause it's the result of their own choices.

A development manager has been messing around with Claude for about a year. In that time (without giving too many details) he has decided that he doesn't want his Devs to code anymore. The reason specifically is because they get too focused on code and not the actual features.

I suggested maybe there is a disconnect between the developers reading the user story and then asking Claude to write the code which is why he believes it messes up for them.

I have brought up the recent study on people not using as much of their cognitive abilities and getting worse at their jobs. I have brought up that it can hallucinate, I have even brought up it can't say it doesn't know and it has a hard time giving sources.

My biggest fear which I also brought up was when it needs to be supported with real customer issues and who will take responsibility. All of this has been dismissed. I have been told we will take responsibility and the tools will help us fix the issues.

I have been told that I simply cannot say "you're not an engineer" I need to prove it won't work, I need black and white tangible proof it won't be able to do the work we need it to.

I can't thing if a way of doing this apart from niche cases, the dev manager even believes that it will be able to fix issues on 20 year old code bases (eventually).

I don't think many developers want to be in this position.

It's been one of the weirdest days in my career.

Has this happened to anyone else?

>>108299010
If I didn't future me would be fucked over. I don't get bogged down on it though since I have way too much shit to do. I do actually follow up on the "I can change that later" things eventually.

>>108299010
I got a different angle on this. I just got my first job after 3 years of applying and joined a company with insane, ludicrous tech debt, massive security issues, for example I found out they have a fucking backdoor into the system with a tiny ass static password that they use to debug on the client's end. They are using Java 7 without any containerization. They test in prod. You get the idea. Fucking nightmare.

I lost both of my morning league games and now i have to go into work feeling like shit...

>>108299061
>In that time (without giving too many details) he has decided that he doesn't want his Devs to code anymore.
He told you this literally? There's no chance you misinterpreted what he said, and he really meant "we should be having AI write the majority of code and doing a lot of the work we do manually today," because that's very different from what you implied

>>108299758
He believes that only developers can get Claude to create the code we need i.e. production. he doesn't believe product owners could tell Claude to code correctly.

I wish I could automate my work without it turning into even more work, since I need to look busy to avoid getting more tasks. Where I live, a normal IT job usually ends up with people becoming laptop technicians and opening their own repair shops. I kind of despised that path at first, but after becoming a system administrator and seeing how everyone treats lack of sleep, or even sleeping at the office and then waking up there just to work again as normal, it makes me think opening your own repair shop honestly doesn’t seem that bad desu

Youre gonna see what i meant in 5 years time when the piper gets to collect its due

Just had my first day wageslaving at this SAT prep mill called Alpha Test and already got filtered. Official hours are supposed to be 9 to 6. I even did unpaid overtime until 6:30 to look like a good little wagie and wrap my shit up. I finally get back to my pod, and at 7:30 the boss calls demanding I come back to the office immediately for absolutely no reason. I tell her I can't, and she straight up fires me on the spot.

She literally hit me with the "we focus on efficiency and profit, not your personal time, our philosophies don't align" meme. Kek.

Let's do the math on this one anons. The pay is 200 RMB a day. That's like 28 USD. They expect 24/7 on-call availability and to own my actual soul for two bucks an hour. The absolute state of modern employment. Refuse to be a cuck for these sociopaths. They claim to be "educating" kids but treat their workers like literal disposable garbage. If any of you ever deal with this company, avoid it like the plague.

There are 3 tiers of engineer I've noticed (and I've played every role depending on my level of motivation at a given company)

1. The 10x do it all "the guy" engineer
2. The diligent but not "the guy" engineer right behind him
3. The coasting along just doing enough slacker

#1 is basically safe. But he pays for it with his time. He will be doing 55+ hour weeks habitually. And it's still quite stressful/anxiety inducing as you're constantly fending off challengers and asserting yourself. It's arguably not worth it but there are perks.

#2 is the hell zone. You're going through a similar amount of stress/rigor/effort. But you're largely unnoticed. The manager likes the guy. No matter how much you do you're expendable. You are not safe from layoff waves even after the mental toil you put in.

#3 is comfortable. Not safe, but still comfortable. You're mentally at peace. You just show up, do things, log out, let fate happen. You're vulnerable to layoffs like #2, but unlike #2 you aren't paying a mental price for the privilege and letting it consume you. You know there will always be another gig.

tl;dr if you aren't clearly the guy that your manager would cut everyone else off to save in the event of company crisis, stop being #2 and wasting your time and happiness, let #1 go off and waste his life on this shit
