anything other than ai slop generation... with every muppet diving head first into llm group fap parties, all the real work still has to get done, especially as people are starting to properly understand that the inherent nature of these black boxes is to produce something that looks rational, but which is subtly woven with bugs that will take longer to fix than if you'd just written simple software from the start; forget "ai" taking your job - it's weeding out the useless "coders" and making those of us who treat coding as a craft even more valuable.
- bloomingkales 2y agowho treat coding as a craft even more valuable You probably think this of yourself. So do I. You see, how do we know this isn't dunning kruger? If Dunning Kruger could talk, this is what it would sound like.
- haakonhr 2y agoI kind of agree, but I would also argue that of those who treat coding as a craft many are in danger as well. Code in the end is just a tool. Deep understanding won't be replaced any time soon, but I have worked with software artisans who were really effective and ones that saw the code and system as an end in itself. If you're in the latter group I'd be worried.
