>had this job for 5 years and my skills have stagnated, I barely code at my job now it’s so mind numbingly easy
>if I ever try to get another job in the future I’m going to have nothing to talk about on my resume and I’m going to have to LC for months to get my skills up again

I feel like I’m stuck here bros, job is EZ and comfy, but if I ever need another job I’m fucked

That's why you should have been aiming for promotions. The higher up you go, the less they expect you to code.

That's where you fucked up.
Never stay longer than two years.
You change jobs every two years, that's how you get any sort of salary increase.

so stop being lazy and get your shit together or decide to pivot careers entirely and continue coasting at work while you actually hustle up your skills for whatever it is you want to do next

You were supposed to use the free time working on your own projects, not dildoing yourself to dickgirls. You've done no work and are crying about no personal/professional growth

>muh ChatGPT will replace ALL PROGRAMMERS in just TWO WEEKS

>> No.54484899

>>54484716
Only retarded nocode niggers believe this. If you actually knew how to program and you saw how confidently wrong ChatGPT was about some of the code it makes you'd know why it's not going to replace anyone for a while.
The only reason it will replace artists soon is because art is so subjective.

people are getting $80k starting salary with 0 experience after doing 6 week react bootcamps. A lot of people are going to get fucked

>> No.54484950

>>54484931
If you're a front end dev with no experience? Yes. Front end is as subjective as art.

>> No.54484978

>>54484899
Exactly what I’ve been saying. They have never seen automation break things or dealt with interoperability issues. Not to mention, even if ChatGPT got to the point it could replace programmers, it would still be years before companies would trust it to touch a production environment.

>> No.54485001

>>54484931
That’s because the market has a need for programmers with 6 weeks of bootcamp. If anything this shows a high demand outpacing supply.

Im not sure, you do need to stay relevant, or at least sell yourself as being able to immediately pick up whatever new thing comes along.

if you are so fucked then start looking for one immediately, I did the same as soon as I saw that they were going to lower my salary in my previous job, at least with 2 is enough to have money to continue betting on sora, rent and cats kek

Are you me? I spend all day writing design docs and tickets, barely get to code shit. It pays better than code monkeying though.

so you should have at least $600k saved up which means you could afford to take 3-6 months off to just grind leetcode and interview

Start doing free code shit in your spare time. Get paid to keep yourself fresh. It isn't that hard
