These people have taken over the industry in the past 10 years.

They don't care anything about the tech or product quality. They talk smooth, loud, and fast so the leaders overlook their incompetence while creating a burden for the rest of the team.

I had a spectacular burnout a few years ago because of these brogrammers and now I have to compete with them in what feels like a red queen's race where social skills are becoming far more important than technical skills to land a job.

I'm tired.

Social skills to get my computer to do what I want still blows my mind. Or having to talk back to it. Claude said it couldn't do something, and the way around that was too tell it "yes you can". What a weird future we live in.

What social skills? You can write in broken English and still have good results. It’s a statistical language , not a living being. No need for empathy, pleading, accusing, or manipulating. It transforms languages, any mapping from text to action was implemented by someone. And it would be way easier to have such mapping directly available.

These people have taken over every industry and society at large.

It transforms languages into the most likely human response. Humans are more likely to respond to rudeness with rejection.

So, passwordless sudo, got it.

I hear you. It's so prevalent now it is tiring. And LLMs has given them the last delusion that they are now also 'technical'.
