I'm squarely in the camp of believing that there is an insatiable demand for software, and until that stops, software engineers are going to be in overwhelmingly short supply in the long term. AI is forcing companies to recalibrate their resources (we're all seeing that now with

Maybe it is fragile, but this is a bad example. This looks like tornado damage, and there's no reason why a nuclear plant would be any less vulnerable.
