The picture shows an open laptop in the background with what appears to be a code editor showing code and an AI assistant chatbot on the right sidebar, slightly out of focus. In front of the laptop you can see hands holding a colorful knitting piece with two big knitting needles.

I get it: things may feel weird right now for developers and we don't know exactly how AI usage will shape the future of software engineering as we know it. But I insist on keeping a positive outlook on everything: if the shift is inevitable as they say, we'll find ways to make it enjoyable 😊
