I completed a CS degree just a year ago, and they absolutely wrecked us with UML. I’m still recovering mentally.

  UML used to be a staple of job interviews.

    It was going to be the future of Software Engineering in the 2000s, Software Architects laying out boxes for Software Bricklayers to implement as dictated, code generation tools were going to make programming trivial. For trivial CRUD apps, and maintaining modified versions of the generated code was a nightmare.

      I was drawing UML before Christmas vacations, when one works at scale, drawing boxes to discuss implemenations works much better than throw away code. It is also a great way to document existing architectures.

      This AI hype cycle reminds me of that era.
