A programmer literally just translates human requirements to machine instructions. Nothing more. That sounds about as tedious and boring as a job can get. Why should we want to code anymore than people wanted to make welds on cars, or pick vegetables?
- swatcoder 4y agoHah. Yeah, I don’t know about that. I name things, articulate relationships between them, discover elegant formalities, probe complex systems, interpret ambiguities, mould systems into new ones, solve puzzles… most days, it feels like sculpting or writing poetry. I don’t really care if AI does some of that too. Incidentally, picking vegetables can actually a pretty nice time too.
