While C++ developers still exist (as a vanishing Red List rarity), the Global Market’s ever-growing hunger for faster and cheaper solutions is actually killing this frighteningly thinning layer of unique Real Engineers. We are seeing a shift from Craftsmen to easily-replaceable Technicians trained to pick best-fit (or not “best”?) framework from endless ever-changing list of “easy” or “no code” options. Unfortunately, the Industry is breeding wrong “specialists”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You can’t avoid World’s complexity, you can just “hide” it inside of another “black box”. Every abstraction is a loan taken against future performance. When the “black box” fails, the Technician is helpless, only the Engineer <\/em>who understands the underlying “scripture<\/em>” can perform the exorcism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n While maintaining yourself as a marketable Technician is a matter of survival today, AI’s indisputable superiority in handling such “Technician” tasks will eventually (guess, sooner than later) kill this entire “no code” developer’s layer as a class, as well as their managers “with whips”. The only remaining demand will be for the Engineer.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Learn C++<\/strong>: the Sacred Language<\/em> of the machine. While high-level, “low-code” frameworks, destined to fade, rarely survive their fifth birthday, C++ is the firmament you can rely on. It is as “forever” as the hardware itself. The “firmament” isn’t just about code\u2014it’s about the very structure of the thought behind it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n While other languages drift into “slang” and “frameworks” (dialects), C++ remains the Sanskrit <\/em>of the machine\u2014a formal grammar that refuses to “evolve” into a black box, preserving the original Logic of Creation<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Even to use an AI effectively at a low level, one better speak the language the AI is actually abstracting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In the coming age, many will read <\/em>code with AI assistance, but few will write <\/em>it with intent. To know C++<\/strong> is to understand the hardware behind it. It is the difference between reciting a mantra and understanding the prayer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Be a Keeper of the Sacred Language<\/em>. In the upcoming AI Civilization, do not let the AI be the only one who understands the Word<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" While C++ developers still exist (as a vanishing Red List rarity), the Global Market’s ever-growing hunger for faster and cheaper solutions is actually killing this frighteningly thinning layer of unique Real Engineers.
