What if we're actually in the middle of the third golden age of software engineering? This is what Grady Booch sees happening. If you are anxious about the state of the industry, you want to watch/listen to Grady's longer-term perspective and stories. Watch the full episode here: 00:00 Intro 01:58 The first golden age of software engineering 18:59 The software crisis 33:01 The second golden age of software engineering 42:21 Y2K and the Dotcom crash 45:47 Early AI 47:34 The third golden age of software engineering 51:48 Why software engineers will very much be needed 58:46 Grady responds to Dario Amodei 1:06:54 New skills engineers will need to succeed 1:10:04 Resources for studying complex systems 1:14:33 How to thrive during periods of change Brought to you by: • Statsig — ⁠ The unified platform for flags, analytics, experiments, and more. • Sonar – The makers of SonarQube, the industry standard for automated code review. Join me online at the Sonar Summit on March 3rd, where I talk about practical tactics for the AI era. • WorkOS – Everything you need to make your app enterprise-ready.

Within software architecture, few people shaped the industry as much as Grady Booch. Safe to say he's a true legend. In today's The Pragmatic Engineer Podcast episode, he shares fascinating stories, insights, observations. Listen or watch the full episode: - YouTube: - Spotify, Apple, or web: Thank you to our wonderful sponsors: 🌟 WorkOS — The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. Learn more at 🌟Sevalla — Deploy anything from preview environments to Docker images. Check it out at 🌟Chronosphere — The observability platform built for control. Get details at --- 3 of my takeaways from this fascinating conversation: 1. Surprising: The US Department of Defense and the military built some of the most complicated software systems in the 70s and 80s. In the 70s, these organizations probably had the most code to deal with - globally! - and things like distributed computing were pioneered thanks to these use cases. 2. The three axes of software architecture Grady argues that when talking about software architecture, we should look at these three dimensions: ceremony, risk and complexity. 3. The economics of software and software architecture are always connected Machine time was very expensive in the 1960s and 1970s, and software had to be written from scratch. Good architecture meant writing highly performant code to utilize these rather limited machines. However, these days, machine time has gotten very cheap, and there are also plenty of “building blocks” at our disposal: from frameworks to cloud services. Software architecture is frequently still connected with cost: to decide on what services and technologies to use, taking the cost aspect into account! I hope you enjoy this conversation - together with a history overview of the last 50 years in software - as much as I did! Thanks a lot Grady Booch

“Software engineering is changing, and by the end of 2025, it's going to look fundamentally different.” OpenAI co-founder Greg Brockman says Codex is a remote software agent that runs in parallel in your repo, and writes code like a teammate. The new model is optimized from o3 to produce mergeable, real-world code.
