I don't know enough to survive.

That chatGPT development becomes a term. Even worse, people calling it a programming language

To be locked in a dev-centered paradigm. I want personal projects that earn me money. I want my own business. But, it requires marketing. I have no respect for marketing people. I’m a dev, and that’s a common sentiment among devs. I have to get over it to achieve my goals, but it seems like I’m locked in a dev paradigm. I only see engineering.

that i get used to stupidity and start accepting it as normal

I just got a message that I've to be in the office twice a week, starting October. I'll have to move my ass to another city now. The whole pandemic just flashed before my eyes.

Other devs who say 'Jithub'

That I will be a developer in 5 years from now

That i will never get out of the corporate slave bullshit minimum wage matrix rat race salary as a dev because no one respects devs in serbia you get fat shitted on and used like a dumb underpaid slave

$3.75/hour

Economic collapse. We'd be the first to be laid off.

Used to be if I was good enough, now it's if work is going to make me a worse person than I was when I started (passionless and not apathetic)

That I will indeed rise to the level of my incompetence…

That I'm responsible enough for people to just entrust shit to me and irresponsible enough to fuck up very important things for very stupid and easily avoidable reasons. Rarely enough to not happen a lot, but serious enough fuck-ups that it can't be considered inconsequential.

And when I tell people not to trust me with shit without supervision they refuse to believe me and think I'm just being self-deprecating. Bitch I'd accidentally let you die if that was a responsibility of mine, I have no brain, only butterflies.

work from office from 2 days a week will become 5 days a week

That I'm too focused on it. And that I'll never be as good as I want to be.

I'm aware these concerns conflict with each other a bit.

My first concern comes from not devoting more time to other hobbies that just let me do things away from my computer, tech related or not. And the second comes from feeling like I've hit a wall and I don't know how to produce better projects beyond that wall ATM and when I do put time into other hobbies/skills even if it is tech related I feel as if I'm not progressing. It's frustrating.

These are both things I've been working on lately. Cutting social media has helped a little bit.

Job requirements, when they require a whole department fitted in one dev.
A single person cant keep up always with latest trends and tend to know them very well.

that tech will collapse as it provides no real value and I don't have the chops to switch to a different industry

I won't keep up with the growing expectations. Yeah, you become more experienced over time as long as you're putting the right kind of work in, but things move on so fast.
I don't want to get to the point where what I know or can do is irrelevant and my skillset lacks what employers need.

Biggest worry is that i dont become as irrelevant and useless as @SidTheITGuy.
That guy is out there unlocking levels of under-achievements i didnt even knew existed

Biggest worry? Having to deal with shitty specifications from random customers.
