If I were to transition from software engineering, I'd prioritize a role that meets the following criteria:

  1. Minimizes screen time and doesn't rely heavily on computers for productivity.

  2. Allows me to disconnect after work without constant notifications or calls.

  3. Offers stability, requiring minimal adaptation to new trends or technologies.

  4. Lastly,  and more importantly, not easily replaceable by AI in the near future.

Any ideas on actual roles?

I think the thing that kills me is the mental exhaustion of software development. Just thinking about how to solve problems all day is mentally taxing.

Get a portable Laguna or Woodmizer saw mill. Optional kiln.
