It's funny how we'd like to chop off the head of that junior developer who's behind that pull request of a perfectly working but not enough clean code, but we happily welcome spaghetti and buggy LLM code because sisterhood and brotherhood claim it's trendy. Herd mentality.
- Philpax 1y agoThere's an uncomfortable truth backing this, at least for me: revising the code of a LLM and changing my cursorrules is easier than fixing up a junior's code and teaching them _why_ I'd want to do something a particular way. After all, it's a tool, not a person, and you can be much rougher with your tools.
- notepad0x90 1y agoIn my experience, you kinda get used to other people's mindset and after a while it becomes second nature to look for their mistakes or to understand their approaches.
- queenkjuul 1y agoWell I, for one, have infinitely more patience for my juniors than whatever nonsense an LLM spits out. Far more pleasant to teach a person something new than to fix autocomplete output.
