Lately, I’ve been hearing a lot of "AI will replace developers" takes, and honestly, I get it. The tools are impressive (and a little scary).

But I think we’re asking the wrong question.

So I made a short video to talk about what actually makes us irreplaceable as devs, even in a world where AI writes code, answers questions, and never needs coffee breaks.

I don’t have all the answers, but I do believe this: being a great developer today isn’t just about coding
It’s about curiosity. Communication. Perspective.
And knowing when to trust your gut over the output of a chatbot.

In the video I cover:

- why AI won’t replace you (but it might change your job)
- how to stay valuable in an automated world
- and why being human is still your superpower

If you’ve been feeling weird about AI lately, this one’s for you.

Hope it helps.

I've got two pieces of paper here. One attests that I am qualified to be a chaired professor in Denmark and Germany. The other attests that I am not qualified for tasks having to do with the everyday maintenance and updating of a museum catalogue in Stockholm.

It's true, these two jobs make different skill demands. But I kind of need to pay my half of the mortgage even before I might (or not) get a professor's chair in Denmark or Germany.

The largest federal labor union in the U.S. said Friday that tens of thousands of federal workers could soon “have their jobs politicized” and be swiftly fired under a new rule proposed by the Office of Personnel Management.
Under the rule, an estimated 50,000 career civil servants would be reclassified as “at-will” employees,
removing civil service protections and making it easier for the federal government to dismiss them.

Donald Trump and his billionaire ally, tech mogul Elon Musk, have long claimed the federal workforce is rife with “rogue bureaucrats” and is part of the “deep state,” pledging to dismantle the civil service.

Trump said on his social media platform, Truth Social, that reclassifying workers “will allow the federal government to finally be ‘run like a business.'”
“If these government workers refuse to advance the policy interests of the president, or are engaging in corrupt behavior, they should no longer have a job,” he said.

Everett Kelley, national president of the American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE), said Friday’s announcement was
the latest “in a series of deliberate moves by this administration to corrupt the federal government and replace qualified public servants with political cronies.”

🔥“President Trump’s action to politicize the work of tens of thousands of career federal employees will erode the government’s merit-based hiring system and undermine the professional civil service that Americans rely on,” said Kelley.

🆘“Politicizing the career civil service is a threat to our democracy and to the integrity of all the programs and services Americans rely on.”

The new category for civil servants was originally called #ScheduleF, but the White House said it was changing the classification to “#Schedule #Policy / #Career.”

U.S. Sens. Tim Kaine and Mark Warner and Rep. Gerry Connolly,
all Democrats from Virginia whose constituents include many federal employees,
said Saturday that
Trump’s proposal to “hire and fire these workers based on their politics,
not their qualifications… makes us all less safe.”

The lawmakers have all backed legislation to protect the federal civil service from being reclassified outside of merit system principles without the approval of Congress,
and issued a warning to congressional Republicans who have heard from angry constituents in recent weeks about the administration’s spending cuts through the so-called Department of Government Efficiency.

“Anyone who cares about our national security, or receives Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid,
or any other critical service administered by the federal government, has a vested interest in protecting our merit-based federal workforce,”
said the lawmakers.

“We have long fought for legislation to protect the federal workforce from this kind of attack.

To our colleagues who will hear from their constituents if government services continue to decline because of this decision:
You were warned.”
