I will quickly forget the details about any given code base within a few months anyway. Having used AI to build a project at least leaves me with very concise and actionable documentation and, as the prompter, I will have a deep understandi

That's quite typical. Given that raw caffeine feels closer to tea than coffee, I'd exclude theanine as a reason for the perceived differences. More likely, it's any of the hundreds of other molecules in coffee, such as MAO in

Most people would benefit from real-life interaction and determining what's meaningful to their life, rather than micro-optimizing isolated attributes.
