Brutal that software engineering went from one of the least automatable jobs to a job that is universally agreed to be "most exposed to automation".

Was good while it lasted though.

I'm sure those who lost a job to software at some point are feeling a great deal of sympathy for developers who are now losing out to automation.

Nice watching it tear down recruiters though.

Despite being the target of a lot of schadenfreude, most software developers aren't working on automation.
