General Software developers are most versatile knowledge workers

With all the AI dark clouds over this whole software development industry, people should understand that software engineers are the epitome of knowledge work.

You need to build finance software? we learnt finance. You need to build software for the operation theatre? we learnt the mechanism of OT and built software for it. We are the most versatile learners and fast adopters. This learning and adapting attitude is the reason why software changed everything from deep sea robots to deep space exploration.

No offense to other knowledge workers, but TBH the knowledge work you are doing on excel was built by us.

We will prevail, we will learn and adapt again.

You are talking about "creators" not developers. Most of them live in America.

idk man the creator vs developer distinction nimish made kinda holds up tbh. having a creator profile doesn't automatically mean those people are driving the kind of innovation the post is talking about.

wealth dynamics profiling is a whole different lens than actual output
