Last week I opened a frontend job listing and physically winced. “React, TypeScript, Next.js, Tailwind, Node, GraphQL, CI/CD, Docker, Kubernetes, micro-frontends, Web3, AI integration…” I closed the tab so fast I nearly sprained a finger and went back to what I do know: a cozy little .html file and a style.css that doesn’t talk back. […]
I always imagined that if I ever lost my job, it would be due to budget cuts, corporate restructuring, or maybe because I publicly pointed out that turning servers off and back on again does not qualify as a strategy. But no. I was replaced by a 16-year-old.With “AI-assisted systems administration skills.”And he’s apparently doing […]
(Because “Senior Software Engineer” just doesn’t sound disruptive enough) So, you’ve mastered Kubernetes, solved race conditions at 3 AM, and can explain the difference between TCP and UDP during REM sleep. Congratulations. Sadly, in 2025, that only qualifies you as “pretty decent.” If you really want to make it big—LinkedIn-influencer-level big—you’ll need a title that’s […]
1. Lead Visionary Principle Vibe Solutions Engineer (Certified Full-Stack Aura Harmonizer) Ever wondered why your team isn’t delivering? It’s because they lack Vibe Alignment™. In 2026, real engineering is less about code and more about ensuring that backend latency and frontend trauma are in emotional sync. You’ll lead “holistic API discussions” and facilitate healing between […]
(A Masterclass in Professional Time Travel and Selective Ignorance) Ah yes, 2025. The year AI writes your code, your fridge deploys Kubernetes clusters, and Junior Developers casually mention “I just optimized our React Server Components pipeline with Astro edge functions and AI-powered bundle splitting.”And here you are—rocking HTML, CSS, and jQuery like it’s 2010 and […]
Ah yes, another year, another tech obituary. First, monoliths died. Then Agile died (twice). Microservices passed away but came back as “modular architecture.” And now here we are, 2025 – apparently, DevOps has finally kicked the bucket. Let’s light a candle, shall we? So… DevOps Is Dead? Sure. And no, it didn’t collapse under Kubernetes […]
Every few years, someone declares that web development is dead. In 2025, the claim feels louder than ever. With AI coding assistants, drag-and-drop builders, low-code/no-code platforms, and automation doing what used to take teams of developers weeks to accomplish, it’s tempting to believe it.But here’s the truth from someone who’s been building for the web […]
