Flat out wrong. The most impressive engineers I've met in my career did not care for fancy tools with bells and whistles.

- hext 7mo agoSure, I bet they didn't outright dismiss them as useless to the entire field though! I'm sure they still understood the value those fancy tools provided to their peers.
- skydhash 7mo agoUnless someone is trolling, it’s rare for people to deem it as “useless”. Most counterpoints have been about ethics and issues that surround LLM usage. Things like licensing, coding vs review time, correctness and maintainability of the generated code, etc… Unless you believe we’re in a software engineering utopia, I think it’s fair to call those out.
- hext 7mo agoI think it’s fair to call those things out 100% of the time regardless of the LLM usage. Not sure what gave you the impression otherwise.
