One day you’re a perfectly normal developer, writing code, minding your business. The next day you wake up and apparently… your favorite framework is now “legacy.” Job posts look like spell books. And a junior asks, with full innocence, “Wait… did you REALLY use jQuery?”

When tech moves faster than my coffee disappears on a Monday morning, how are we supposed to keep up and stay sane?

This talk takes a very honest (and slightly chaotic) tour through the fear of becoming outdated, the weird rituals we all try to stay “up-to-date,” and the comforting truth behind what actually matters.

There will be real stories. A few developer confessions. Mild panicking about AI. And that moment we’ve all had at least once: “Do I… need to learn Rust… right now? Is that a thing??”

If you’ve ever felt like you’re one npm install away from a full existential crisis, this talk is absolutely for you.
