   I really don't know what to feel about AI generated code. It's clear that it improves velocity dramatically in code output. It has some value to it. But what is the cost?

   While I code without the help of AI, sometimes I feel like I am being left behind.

   Ohh you wrote only 400 lines today? I shipped a whole app while being in the gym... hits hard.

      400 locs is a very exhausting day for me, I think I rarely did so much work a day in my entire 15 years career

         Depends on the kind. 400 locs JS or Java or something is barely worth mentioning. Can do more, a lot of it is boilerplate bs.

         400 locs of critical C code, sure.
