LLM anything makes me queasy. Why would any self respecting software developer use this tripe? Learn how to write good software. Become an expert in the trade. AI anything will only dig a hole for software to die in. Cheapens the product, butchers the process and absolutely decimates any hope for skill development for future junior developers.

I'll just keep chugging along, with debian, python and vim, as I always have. No LLM, no LSP, heck not even autocompletion. But damn proud of every hand crafted, easy to maintain and fully understood line of code I'll write.

This comment presupposes that AI is only used to write code that the (presumably junior-level) author doesn’t understand.

I’m a self-respecting software developer with 28 years of experience. I would, with some caveats, venture to say I am an expert in the trade.

AI helps me write good code somewhere between 3x and 10x faster.

This whole-cloth shallow dismissal of everything AI as worthless overhyped slop is just as tired and content-free as breathless claims of the limitless power or universal applicability of AI.
