                                                                                                                          1. “If you’re unhappy, move.” That’s not a simple option. Most people aren’t in a position to simply change jobs. Especially in a market that favors capitalism over people.

                                                                                                                          2. “Stagnant developers = bad developers.” Our industry is indeed evolving all of the time. And it is, as you suggested, something developers need to adapt to. But not as an absolute. Not every technology is vital or relevant. AI is not the mandatory future that all developers must adopt. We can debate this all day. But to imply a developer is “not very good” because they refuse one specific technology is untrue and unfair.

                                                                                                                          Empathy is a good look. I realize you have some strong opinions about AI. I won’t criticize you for that. But I will suggest some understanding for folks who don’t want any part of it.
