   Sorry, programming is still fun. LLMs can't change that.

      I agree. Possibly more fun than ever. Bugs are being caught earlier through AI review, higher quality and quantity of tests, features are going out faster, bad decisions can be easily course corrected and bike shedding is dropping dramatically.

      I miss the romanticism of trad coding but shipping better solutions to my customers was the goal. Hard to argue things aren’t better when AI is used intelligently by experienced people.

         True, every child grows up with the dream of maximizing shareholder value, I’m so glad they can achieve that now. /s

            Ok. Replace “customer” with “end user”
