Becoming an AI-Native Engineer

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-09-18 22:55:11

Posted on June 10, 2025 I’m confident I’m not alone in saying I’ve spent a lot of time over the past couple of years thinking about AI as an engineer / developer and what it means for our field and for our careers. For a long time, software engineering felt like a safe bet. After all, how could we be automated away when we’re the ones writing the automation? Or so we thought. Like many, I’ve run the full gamut of emotions on the topic: excitement, uncertainty, fear, frustration, more excitemen

Nintendo’s Switch 2 is faster, more powerful, and all around better than its predecessor in just about every way. It’s also bigger than the OG Switch. But, like, how much bigger? Okay, sure, we can check the specs and see that the Switch 2 is half an inch (12.7mm) taller and 1.2 inches (30.48mm) wider than the original — and it’s 0.22

Cadillac Optiq 2025 Review: Prices, Specs, Availability

The 2025 Cadillac Optiq is the US brand’s shot at capturing buyers of small, high-end EVs in North America and several other markets. It’s the latest in a lineup of five electric models from a brand recasting itself as all (or mostly) electric, tech-forward, and truly global—unlike its US luxury-barge image of past decades. I spent eight days in an Optiq in early May, and drove 840 miles throughout upstate New York and environs, and also New York City. It’s a quiet and comfortable small-SUV EV

24 Gifts for Dads Who Don’t Need Anything (2025)

your Dad doesn't need a gift for Father's Day. Ask any dad in your life, and he'll tell you the same. However, you should gift him something anyway. I am not only a dad and a gear reviewer, but also someone with a specific philosophy about what makes a good gift for middle-aged men like me. The best gifts for a dad are things that not only are relevant to his interests but also can be fairly described as “overkill.” Dads tend to like things that are useful but overbuilt.

Inside the AI Party at the End of the World

In a $30 million mansion perched on a cliff overlooking the Golden Gate Bridge, a group of AI researchers, philosophers, and technologists gathered to discuss the end of humanity. The Sunday afternoon symposium, called “Worthy Successor,” revolved around a provocative idea from entrepreneur Daniel Faggella: The “moral aim” of advanced AI should be to create a form of intelligence so powerful and wise that “you would gladly prefer that it (not humanity) determine the future path of life itself.”

After going in deep in product, I found myself drawn to a different challenge: making other developers more productive. As one of my biggest mentors would always say: “Developer productivity is always ‘Multiplier work’, especially in places where you have a lot of developers. By saving a couple minutes from every developer, every day, you’ve saved years of human life waiting for stuff.” The project that really forged me was the Office migration from Source Depot to Git.

Although some shoppers and lawmakers worry the technology could enable unpredictable, demand-driven price hikes, a new academic study suggests those fears may be overblown.

Google DeepMind CEO Says AI Will Let Us "Colonize the Galaxy" Starting in Five Years

In the age of artificial intelligence, CEOs have ranked among the tech's biggest cheerleaders. Drawing on sci-fi tropes and ill-defined industry terms, the pitch usually involves a confident prediction, like that humans and AI will learn to live in "peaceful coexistence" — just imagine the alternative! — and an arbitrary timetable, like that AI will result in a doomsday scenario by 2027 (unless, that is, lawmakers give these massive tech firms carte blanche to do whatever they want.)

IBM aims to build the world’s first large-scale, error-corrected quantum computer by 2028
