People have also been using calculators and importing libraries for nearly a century, that doesn’t mean they can’t do computation by paper or write their own libraries. That’s purist thinking and it is stupid.
Actually coding is not as much fun as prompting models. It’s the difference between work and play. Prompting is genuinely a fun thing to do. I don’t do it for work.
Well the slopmachine got you hooked, as it was designed to be…
Couldn’t be more different for me though, I’m missing being in the flow for hours, writing code. Now it’s mindless context switching, and burning out because of looking at all the slop (often of others) that’s just unnecessary garbage code… Wondering how this art has been degraded to so quickly…
Or you could just learn to fucking code like people have been doing for nearly a century.

Glad you enjoy it. As someone who genuinely enjoys coding and made a career out of it, prompting is a fucking nightmare.
