Bro who do you think your talking to? It already is like that for me for programming languages. I've certainly programmed in enough of them. The more likely option is that you will be working in an already established code base and have to use what they are already using or want you to use. You sound like a hobby programmer. That or someone at a company using microservices for everything.
Lol try harder, angry noob.
You know I actually used to think like you once. When I only wanted to be a professional code monkey. I am glad I don't think like that anymore. There are better things to be than someone who's job is just to write code. Code is after all a means to an end. Now when I write code it's with an actual goal in mind.
Writing code is something that's largely being automated by LLMs and AI. Some will still be needed, the best and the brightest of programmers, but I don't think that's you. Any who go learn cyber security or AI or something. You would make more money there anyway. If not your going to have to learn to work with LLMs, and to fix their code. Cause there sure aren't going to be many programming jobs in the future that don't involve using them.
