    It’s a nice sentiment, but I feel like it collides in a way that is not practical with reality. In particular, if said students want to get a job in the industry and make money, while they can choose not to use AI and to care deeply about their craft and go slowly, their employer can also choose not to hire them.

    Which is their right. Kinda is what it is.

      What's the point of sharing those links below most of your posts? I don't really see anything of value in the comments

        I like it, it’s a bit extra if you want, and I’m guessing giving credit to where they found it (citing your source as it were).

        I started sharing the link to the submission on Lobsters for a few reasons:

        1. I like Lobsters (the website, the animals are okay too).
        2. I think people who visit ~comp on Tildes would like Lobsters.
        3. A lot of Tildes users who frequent ~comp already have accounts on Lobsters, so they might be interested to know there's a discussion going on over there too.
        4. Lobsters has a lot of users who are "notable". It's common for a blog post or project to be posted on Lobsters by one user, and for the author of that content to also have a Lobsters account and show up in the comments. For example, Andrew Kelley, creator of the Zig programming language, and Mitchell Hashimoto, creator of more things than I care to list, both have accounts and are active there.

    Short but sweet. I think it’s good advice for everyone, not just software engineering students.
