Well, look at 99% of business software. It's always the same.
"Tech" in the sense of FAANG and so on isn't that large of an employer worldwide and even within them, a significant portion is regular old business software. Billing hours in AWS and billing phone calls isn't that different.
I'd argue, if an AI could create a form and transform that data into a given schema to push somewhere, 20% of all developers will need a new job.
The real question here is: how much "coding work" is there left to do?
Currently, the bottleneck is available developers (barring short term problems). Even if AI would make every developer 30% more efficient, there would still be work to do. But there will be a point, where this tipps over. At some point, there's no additional demand anymore. We just don't know, when this will happen. 50%, 100%, maybe 700%?
One thing to keep in mind is, that AI code doesn't have to be good, just good enough. Many nerds seem to think that efficiency, beauty or elegance have value. But to a business, that's just a collateral benefit. Software can be buggy, slow, hard to update. That all doesn't matter, if the results and costs are in a good-enough ratio.
Mine can even still call out, but the router/modem doesn't supply enough voltage (or current, not sure) so you really have to scream to be heard and only hear a faint whisper.
Sure, if my battery lasts literally 30min, I'm totally not forced to buy a new phone. I'll just fast charge my way through the world.
Maybe that says more about your phone consumption than battery life.
I try not to buy a new phone every year and I can tell you, after 3-4 years, the batteries are very noticeably dying. My last two phones (nexus 4, moto z play) both were replaced due to failing batteries, since replacing them is almost impossible (I couldn't even find replacements that I would call trustworthy).
My usage was not super unusual, and most days I plugged them in over night and that's it.
But then you aren't forced to buy a new phone every few years?
Blunt force approach: open Spotify in a browser, open the playlist in question, scrape the HTML.
Ebay. Or whatever is your preferred local classified app.
What? You don't like that the BullshitInjectionScanner scans your Classpath for Beans and sacrifices 12-56 goats to all instances of Godable, to inject bullshit values in all @bullshittable classes?
Seriously though, I hate all the voodoo and black magic going on behind the scenes without any reasonable form of control for me.
They usually test whatever the manufacturer says is the default. And that most likely happens to be the lowest power mode that barely resembles a reasonable usage.
Honestly, it's easier to keep my Debian machine from killing itself than any Windows install.
It seems like Windows actively sabotages itself for no reason.
First of all, there's a good chance, you can get a replacement fan. There are not that many different fans.
If that's not what you want, you can probably just replace the fan with a regular fan, you just need an adapter for the laptop's fan header.
