This is it. Post 100 of #100DaysToOffload, again. The second round. Something I never thought would be a thing. Now, 2 years and 200 posts later, here I am.

Hah, I made a mistake. In my post, New Apple Watch Sleep Tracker Results, I forgot to increase the counter. The last ... posts #3 and New Apple Watch Sleep Tracker results have the same #48. Which is wrong. This post here should be #98 but is instead 99!
Yesterday, I was trying to build an igloo with my oldest. As a child, every time it snowed, I was so excited to get outside to build an igloo. I simply just started. I grabbed a shovel and made a massive pile of snow. When the way was too long to the igloo, I made huge snowballs and rolled them onto the snow pile. After compacting everything, I just dug a hole into the pile and was done.
You never stop learning, and you can't know everything about your profession. Nice to see how you can improve your usage of HTML in your interface.
Trying out the max-length: 250 and 1 React component per file ESLint rules in a small project. Claude is now refactoring several files. One was at around 1000 LoC.
I went to see Suicide Silence, Dying Fetus, and Slaughter to Prevail in Berlin.
7 more posts and I completed #100DaysToOffload a second time. Crazy. It was around 2 years ago when I created this blog on write.as. The following is more or less a conversation with myself.
I wrote this post nearly 3 months ago, and it feels like I got 3 years older since then. Strange that I never published it.
Now with a much more profound understanding of AI and much, much better models, the changes I made here would have been done in minutes. I guess. 😅
After writing Am I made for AI orchestration?, I thought about, if I should fear that AI could replace my job.
<!—more—>
Sure, why not? I love writing code. I really do. But I also love to create new software. I would miss writing code by hand and there will be time where I just do it, instead of letting AI do the job. Why not? If I work in my garage on wood projects, I use sometimes a hand saw (Japanese Saw) or a circular saw. Just use the right tool at the right time?
AI enables me to do things, that were too much work with not enough value. Now I can just add these small features to projects that were only on the nice-to-have-sometime-in-the-future list. It’s a win win for everyone.
Another thing where helps me, is getting startet with tasks. I often have a blocker in my head, where I feel lost and procrastinate until deadline is near. Here is just start talking with the AI about the topic and somehow I get motivated and start. Sounds crazy but it works wonders for me.
So, will AI replace my job? Yes, but I find another one, where I can utilize my tools to create and help!

I was scrolling through my drafted posts and realized how much has changed in the last year.
There are posts I had prepared where I wanted to show how I migrated X to Y, for example. With AI in mind, this could now be done in minutes, and it no longer feels worth talking or writing about.
A lot of these posts can probably be deleted because they already feel outdated. It’s crazy how much has changed in such a short time, but it’s also exciting to see how all of this continues to evolve.
