Quit my job a year ago and have been focussing on other aspects of life since.

Deactivating my LinkedIn profile was a 2025 highlight.

You could call it “career suicide” but honestly don’t think I want to go back to what I was doing before. After 25 years I think I’m done.

How’s it looking out there? Are we still building websites with nextjs and tailwind?

Did the LLMs take our jobs?

Honest questions. I totally checked out and only just now starting to “look back”.

Anyway. Merry Christmas, happy holidays, happy new year, Guten rutsch.

Love you all and hope you’re all well ❤️

@tthew Ace. LinkedIn is a special kind of hell I don’t wish upon my worst enemies.

Let’s coffee next year?

@tthew still building them websites here. Most of the new code I see is LLM-generated, and there's a lot more code every day than there used to be. This sort of changed my attitude in code review to "deny hallucinations". I reluctantly accept this as my new role as a human being with some experience in this field. For a while I hope. Guten Rutsch and hope to see you next year!
@tthew s/deny/forbid/, something like that. the opposite of what I wrote basically 😅
