Last year Mark Russinovich and I wrote a paper on how Software Engineering will redefine the profession, and how early in career engineers may see an “AI Drag,” while seniors will see a significant boost. This paper was published today in the Communications of the ACM, Association for Computing Machinery

The real story though, is that we propose a program where companies must invest deeply in our EiC pipeline, not just hiring juniors but giving them formal *preceptors* (modeled after nursing) such that we create a strong pipeline of new senior engineers to take on the coming industry challenges.

Please read and share if it resonates with you!

Had an amazing two days speaking to thousands of developers on how to navigate the uncertain future.

One thing that really struck me though was the number of times people said things like I read your book in high school or I learned this language from your video, and now these folks are senior engineers at big companies

I’ve only been doing this for like what, five years? Crazy

Virtual Desktops on Windows aren't used enough. Mac has the "maximize to Virtual Desktop" button so I did a similar thing for Windows. Please go test it and file issues. SHIFT-CLICK on the Maximize button will maximize a window to a new Virtual Desktop. Also a hotkey. https://github.com/shanselman/MaximizeToVirtualDesktop/releases/tag/v0.0.1
