About
There are few programmers over the age of 50 who continue to write code like me. According to Stack Overflow survey I’m in the 4%. I wish there were more for us. Business experience and software development knowledge. I don’t think there is anything else that solves business problems better.
Although today it seems like AI will do everything, I think writing code more human-like. LLM is not capable of making decisions and is actually a librarian. It processes and presents information for you. To call it “intelligence” would be overkill in my opinion. “Artificial intelligence” is a usefull tool. The days when we will use LLM for business problems are not far away. By the way, I use AI every day when I write code or in my daily works.
Although there are many aspects of a software development project, in my experience the most important factor is people. Identifying needs and problems, testing, troubleshooting are all part of the software business. Every stage is done with people. Working with the right people and right organization is a must. Effective project management is very critical.
Today, software developers who know popular technologies are in demand. There is no magic wand in the hands of technology giants. As in many other fields, software developers are customers and “new” technologies are marketed to them.
I use Ruby on Rails and have had the opportunity to use ReactJS, NodeJS, PHP, Python, Ruby and many other programming languages and tools. It is always nice to have alternatives. But I think it is vital to choose most appropriate technology according to the needs of project.
For software development and especially web applications, you can contact me at [email protected]. Maybe we will have a chance to come up with a great project plan for your ideas. What do you think ?
