They're far too aware that this is a bubble, so I think they must know that they have a relatively short time window to make themselves necessary.

Considering a lot of these corporations , including gaming services, all have the side project of moving their products to the cloud. I imagine they know the bubble is going to pop and their bet is to use the chaos to restructure as many services as possible as rent seeking.

anectodally, I accidentally vibe coded a web app while i mistakenly loaded my dictionary file (a .txt) in the wrong page. Surprisingly the website works, but I doesn't permanently save any new addition to the flashcard set.

I was just trying to get translation + example sentence for a flashcard / anki deck. I think I can restructure this thing to accept a .txt file as an input and make it actually useful, but If I didn't know input / output on basic things like this i'd be unable to fix it. Well. Now imagine the number of users who are trying to make these web apps. Also it is 2026 and knowing java is still important apparently, so yeah also keep java in mind. And python.

I wanted to make my own flashcard thing with python. I was thinking at In / Out. I wasn't thinking at automation. Some people are already getting used to that, tho, Idk if it is a problem. I wouldn't use AI without a proper introduction to coding. Oh btw I know anki is better I was just thinkering with ideas.
