For personal projects I make heavy use of LLMs now and coding is still fun when I do it with the latest and greatest tools. I'm about 5X as productive as I would be if I had to crank out code myself. I'm used to verifying code with a compiler/interpreter and a unit test -- not by going through my code line by line and declaring to an interviewer "yes I think it's correct". My way of doing things is to just run the damn thing with the right tests and it will tell me if something is wrong. Unfortunately job interviews these days are still hellbent on whiteboarding Leetcode problems. I'm past that. Unfortunately they aren't. It's this kind of BS -- not being allowed to use the best tools that exist -- that makes me not want to code for work anymore.
