I like solving problem. But I also want the problem to stay solved. And if I happen to see a common pattern between problems, then I build a solution generator.

I like solving problem. But I also want the problem to stay solved. And if I happen to see a common pattern between problems, then I build a solution generator. Maybe because I don’t think in terms of code. I just have this mental image that is abstract, but is consistent. Code is just a tool to materialize it, just like words are a tool to tell a story. By the time I’m typing anything, I’m already fully aware of my goals. Designing and writing are two different activities. Reading LLMs code is jarring because it changes the pattern midway. Like an author smashing the modern world and middle earth together. It’s like writing an urban fantasy and someone keeps interrupting you with some hard science-fiction ideas.
