I've seen a lot of posts and comments like this in the title "CS won't die. It'll be just different than it used to be". In general, I agree with that. But it opens a lot of questions.

Firstly, if CS will be different than it used to be, does it mean that it'll be totally different field? For example, I like writing software in terms finding my own solution to a problem, writing manually algorithms and all instructions which computer has to do in order to perform some actions. If CS will become a profession where I have to review what AI generates, for me it's a totally different job which I don't like. So, I don't care if CS won't die if it will become something which I don't like.

Secondly, what about job stability and expectations and salaries. If bar for entering CS becomes too low (already is relatively low), if managers expect to make new features in a couple of hours instead of days, and if we lose the job as soon the application is finished and only one person is left to maintain it, is there a point to invest in it?

I mean, agriculture also didn't but, but today it's totally different that it used to be 100 years ago.

What's your opinion on this topic?

Da se ne ponavljamo, ali cinjenica jeste da je danas situacija u IT-ju mnogo losija nego pre recimo 4+ godina. Medjutim, sticajem okolnosti znam da neki i dalje dobro zaradjuju. Uglavnom su to ljudi koji rade direktno za strance (ali su to istovremeno i ljudi koji su te klijente manje-vise odavno obezbedili, jos pre ove krize u IT-ju). Doduse, ima i onih koji rade u firmama koje imaju sopstven proizvod, ali tih firmi je jako malo van Beograda, a i ako uzmemo u obzir samo firme koje imaju bas jake plate tu jako mali broj ljudi moze da upadne.

Sto se tice outsourcing firmi, tu ima najvise posla u Srbiji, ali deluje da tu postoji neki limit sto se tice plata, i da nakon sto se dostigne neki limit mozes da dubis na glavi, vecu platu neces dobiti. Drugim recima, ko nije u poziciji da se zaposli u nekoj od retkih firmi na domacem trzistu koje imaju svoj proizvod, a ima ambiciju da ostvari malo vecu platu, izgleda da jedina opcija ostaje rad direktno za strance.

Medjutim, kakva je zaista situacija sa tim poslovima? Da li je potrebno da budes Tesla koji je spreman da radi za kikiriki da bi dobio neki normalan posao, ili je ipak moguce naci solidan posao i ako nisi Tesla, ali si generalno dobar programer (da ne zalazimo sad u terminologiju ko je koder, ko programer, a ko softver inzenjer)? Da li se moze racunati na relativno stabilne poslove i dugorocnije poslove, ili si stalno izlozen nekom pritisku i riziku od raskida ugovora?

Kakva su vasa iskustva?
