I recovered the joy of programming. And I didn’t look back. I won’t pretend that number of lines of code or PRs is a valid metric, especially when AI can be as verbose as it wants to win on every metric. But I can say that I am pushing significant changes every day, getting PRs merged, and at the end of the day, getting the work done. And for that reason, I’m not scared of being fired. Plus, I’m keeping my brain functions intact.
it’s the same profit focused logic as “our enemy x will get y bomb in n months, so lets do a war.”
