what non-tech people think software developers do:

→ sit and code all day
→ fix bugs in 5 minutes
→ know everything about every computer ever made
→ got the job because of a 3 month bootcamp
→ don't need to talk to anyone
→ ship it once and it runs forever
what software developers actually do:
→ spend 40% of the day in meetings
→ spend 40% reading code someone else wrote in 2019
→ spend 19% debugging something that "shouldn't be happening"
→ spend 1% actually writing new code
and after all of that..
"can't AI just do your job now?"
yes. the 1%.
