This is the very moment at which I started my own business. I prefer to work for myself with some quality standards than to be in a rush in front of a prompt (not that I do not use AI at all, I do, but not for generating code most of the time).

I knew the future, at that time was basically: pressure for speed, taking ownership of course, even if they rush you. Wild-guess, probably with an AI, to add on top more trch debt. Make everything unmaintainable in the long term.

So this was the perfect moment to show that things can be done in another way and quality can be kept higher than the competition bc what I am seeing lately is people throwing things in a rush. Better twopieces of well-crafted software than 10 pieces of unmantainable junk.
