Being unemployed has given me a lot of time for introspection and I don’t like it all. “You used to be niche-famous in PHP. You made a choice in 2017 to go to fewer events, stop working on OSS, and try and enjoy your life away from programming. Now things are tough and you are trying to use your D-level celebrity status to get a job. Nobody gives a fuck about you any more. Prepare for a huge pay cut at your next job.”

“Your stance on LLM’s cost you your job. The industry continues to not care about the programming practices you promote. You do not know how to cut through gatekeepers and find a place where what you do will be embraced instead of politely tolerated. Who should even help you with any of this?”
