The Deep Blue
We coined a new term on the Oxide and Friends podcast last month (primary credit to Adam Leventhal) covering the sense of psychological ennui leading into existential dread that many software developers are feeling thanks to the encroachment of generative AI into their field of work.
We’re calling it Deep Blue.

I’ve been thinking about the “Deep Blue” from various perspectives lately.
- Will I remain relevant as a software engineer?
- Will my teenage son, aspiring to be a software engineer, face easier or more challenging job prospects compared to my own experience?
- Does pursuing a college degree in software engineering still make sense for him (or anyone else aspiring to enter the field)?
- Will I be able to secure employment in a software-related role for the next 10-20 years?
Those are just a few off the top of the dome.

I decided to do this coding challenge yesterday to help dust off my Python knowledge. I took me about an hour, including figuring out how to disable Copilot and suggestions.
After I finished I gave it to Copilot/Claude Sonnet 4.5 and it did it in 45 seconds and essentially did it exactly as I did. It used less functions.

I finally sat down and watched Prey
I finally sat down and watched Prey 🍿. I have been revisiting all the Alien and Predator movies ever since Alien:Earth 📺 came out. I am not sure why I hadn’t watched this sooner. I had heard it was good but for some reason I kept putting it off. With the new Predator: Badlands🍿 out now, I wanted to make sure I was caught up with all the Predator movies. Here is a list ofAlien movies I have watched recently:

Enjoying the patio with this fall weather! I also recently discovered you can take dual camera photos with FB Messenger. Now to find a separate app to do it.

Trying to finish Tiago Forte’s book, Building a Second Brain (I get easily distracted by the great ideas in the book) and ran across something struck a chord with me. It is called the Hemingway Bridge.

Finished reading: A Different Kind of Power by Jacinda Ardern 📚
This was really interesting and happened to be my second book this year written by a female politico from New Zealand. I remembered liking how she had handled COVID during her time as Prime Minister.
