Dont have any recommendations, I don't watch or read anyone. Think of it in two parts. You have the coding skill: knowledge of syntax, technical details, inputs, outputs, some math and logic, the infamous 'DSA' that millions of Indian people with no talent can solve. <- People pedestalize this.

Then you have the project manager / architect skill of shaping things and having an understanding of the tech stack - but does not need to be a great coder. Maybe they were in the past, but they're not grinding silly LeetCode questions and cannot solve them, and are smart enough to see that as the hamster wheel surrogate goal that it is.

I think we need less of the former, much less. I don't see it as a bad thing. I myself have severe carpal tunnel, RSI, and back problems, from sitting at a computer.

Almost all of the students that jumped into programming courses did so for money. They have no passion (less than me by far) for coding. Its a lie perpetuated by toxic positivity and invested groups that coding is some magical, super cool, super smart activity.

Its very overdue at this point. DeepSeek R1 and V3 are competing with o1, open source and local hostable. NVidia is coming out with small AI GPUs for consumers.

The winners of this AI age is everyone. EXCEPT 'coders'. Many getting 6 figures to maintain a CRUD app. I don't feel sorry for them! Cooking up garbage apps in PHP - I cannot wait for it to be overturned by energy efficient AI made apps in Rust.
