Agreed. I feel like coding with AI is distilling the process back to the CS fundamentals of data structures and algorithms. Even though most of those DS&As are very simple it takes experience to know how to express the solution using the language of CS.
I've been using Cursor Composer to implement code after writing some function signatures and types, which has been a dream. If you give it some guardrails in the context, it performs a lot better.

- brandall10 2y agoThe one thing I'm a little concerned about is my ability as an engineer. I don't know if I'm losing or improving my skillset. This exercise of development has become almost entirely one of design and architecture, and reading more than writing code. Maybe this doesn't matter if this is the way software is developed moving forward, and I'm certainly not complaining in working on a 2 person startup
