I don't think the beautiful ornate hand carved furniture era of software engineering has existed for many decades now.
What's happening right now is more like, we're moving from a hyper-optimized era of just-in-time manufacturing (in software, this is called "Agile", "scrum", "sprints", etc.) to getting our manufacturing outsourced to another country. In software, the "other country" is AI.
love this idea. the question then is: who has made the Toyota 22R-E of software?
My Toyota is a pre office 365 Microsoft Excel
Hard to decide if the Linux kernel, git, or SQLite is that for me.
