    Learn to code. Go?

    "For a while now, software engineering has undergone a profound,
    fundamental shift: Where we once wrote most lines of code by hand, we
    now ask AI coding assistants and agents to generate large swaths of code
    for us.

    But AI needs supervision, so it is we, the humans, who must read the
    generated code, clean it up, and verify that it does what we want it to
    do. And because AI has a limited view of the greater context in which
    the code it generates must operate, it is we who define the system architecture, design the boundaries between services, and ensure the
    overall safety and reliability of our production environments."

    In this paradigm, the things that matter most in our developer tools are shifting, too.

    While engineers write AI logic in Python, the underlying computations
    are almost always executed in C++.

    Learn to code. Get a job. Make money and save up to buy a home and send
    your son through college. You can do this Nick!

    I'm old fashioned, and just type my code by hand. Why can't you?

    The OpenAI talent exodus raises rCyhuge red flagrCO ahead of IPO
    AI Age, Fri, Aug 14 2026
    https://tinyurl.com/2u7ynrcy

    The sudden departure of OpenAI revenue chief Denise Dresser this week came days after longtime exec Brad Lightcap said he was leaving. OpenAIrCOs C-suite instability is giving investors another reason for concern as the company makes moves toward a mammoth public listing.

    CFO Sarah Friar and President Greg Brockman are set to meet with OpenAI investors on Thursday, according to a person familiar with the matter.

    When OpenAI hired Denise Dresser from Slack to be its chief revenue officer
    in December, Fidji Simo, a top-ranking executive, said in a blog post that DresserrCOs rCLexperience will help us make AI useful, reliable, and accessible
    for businesses everywhere.rCY

    Four months later, Dresser took on added responsibilities when operating
    chief Brad Lightcap left that position for a new role focused on rCLspecial projects.rCY
