minus-squarechiliedogg@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up26·2 months agoYears ago saw someone copy/pasting stuff in Excel one field at a time using the “Edit” menu. She told me this way she knew it was working. I had to walk away. I will also say that back then computers were a lot scarier, since many people had never used them. People were terrified of clicking the wrong thing.

minus-squareulterno@programming.devlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up10arrow-down1·2 months agoYeah, I am the same. I type the code myself, so I know what it actually means, instead of letting AI do it. It might seem different now, but 10-20 years down the line, they might be the same energy.
