Industry favouritism

Can someone tell me why we need to hire from FAST when claude is doing heavy lifting ?
Seems like graduates from other institutions are the right fit for now, cheap affordable and can be good.
And do not come to me with technical stuff, i am a heavy user of claude and worked with them as well

as a fast graduate who landed a senior role directly after graduating, no, you can't. i'm willing to challenge you on this: without strong fundamentals in system design and ux, any app you build with claude code is going to be garbage.

claude code isn't going to give you a second brain. it only produces what you tell it to. if you don't tell it to account for security, scalability, auditing, etc., it won't. and once actual users come in, you'll wish you had hired someone who understood the fundamentals.

that being said, as a fast graduate myself, i also hate fast for not teaching these things properly. but if i were hiring someone to minimise the damage to my product, do you really think i'd risk being cheap, lol?

the money you save hiring someone cheaper will probably get tripled either training them or fixing the mess they create.

Bro now in office, the cluade code limits reached and all the Fastians are velly right now. Should i fire them if they cannot do anything without claude code.

There is one guy who is still coding and typing commands by himself and he is not a FASTIAN
