I must have authored literally a million lines of C++ over my career, and done many talks about clean coding, etc.. But in this one I quite appropriately wrong almost zero lines by hand!
Surprisingly, I've really enjoyed the experience. I have friends who lament that they probably won't be hand-writing code much more, but although I've always loved the craft of coding, I discovered that a lot of the fun I get is just in the end result, not how I got there.
- dixtel 3mo ago> they probably won't be hand-writing code much more Why is that, can you elaborate a bit? Also one question about economics of writing such tools using AI - How much it costs you? PS: It looks great, I want to try it today :)
- julesrms 3mo agoWell, once the LLMs are better and faster at writing code than the humans, coding by hand becomes a hobby rather than a job.. I guess personally I spend just over 100/month on LLM subs
- dixtel 3mo ago> coding by hand becomes a hobby rather than a job Yeah, I guess that will be the future. I'm not sure if its a good thing or not. I hope it will not affect my job position. Last question, which LLM provider you use and the model?
