Ask HN: What was being a software developer like about 30 years ago?

I'm curious what it was like to be a developer 30 years ago compared now in terms of processes, design principles, work-life balance, compensation. Are things better now than they were back then?

It's mind blowing to see all the advances in AI from generating images based on text input to designing beautiful interiors and even editing out objects live from video. Where would you start if you want to practically work with AI? I have some programming and high school level math background.

Show HN: I 3D scanned the interior of the Great Pyramid at Giza
95 by lukehollis | 19 comments on Hacker News.
Hey HN, I 3d scanned the interior of the Great Pyramid / Khufu's pyramid for the Giza Project this summer and just finished the guided version to share. Would love feedback and/or problems you encounter. I used both a Leica BLK 360 and Matterport Pro 2 to do the scanning and the Matterport SDK for the web viewer. Matterport's web display with Three.js has been the most accessible to a wide audience in the past (previous iterations are in Unity and Unreal, but difficult to download over slower connections). I've been interviewing social studies teachers around the 6th grade level to create teaching materials as well, and these along with other monuments that I've scanned at Giza are up at https://giza.mused.org/ Cheers from Cairo--and thanks for any feedback.
