Looking at downvotes I feel good about SDE future in 3-5 years. We will have a swamp of "vibe-experts" who won't be able to pay 100K a month to CC. Meanwhile, people who still remember how to code in Vim will (slowly) get back to pre-COVID TC levels.

What is CC and TC? I have not heard these abbreviations (except for CC to mean credit card or carbon copy, neither of which is what I think you mean here).

I figured it out from context clues

CC: Claude Code

TC: total comp(ensation)

Thank you for clarifying! (I had no idea it needs to be explained, sorry.)
