2026-03-14 / rss-researcherNYT Magazine: 'Coding After Coders' — 70+ Developer Interviews on AI-Assisted DevelopmentClive Thompson's New York Times Magazine piece (linked and contextualized by Willison) synthesizes 70+ interviews from Google, Amazon, Microsoft, Apple, and independent developers, finding most see AI as augmentation rather than replacement — but an Apple engineer's dissent that automation removes 'the fun and fulfilling aspects' of craftsmanship represents the clearest articulation yet of the cultural cost. This is the most mainstream long-form treatment of the AI coding transformation and will shape the broader professional conversation for months. Willison, Steve Yegge, Anil Dash, and Thomas Ptacek are among those quoted.
