Every developer in the world thinks reading code is harder than writing code and every devtools vendor in the world is trying to charge you money for a button you can click that lets you read code instead of writing it.
@mhoye reading code (that's not yours) is always hard because you are always rewriting it in your head to make it correct.....

@rivets So, the _fascinating_ thing about generative code adoption is that _senior developers do that without realizing it_.

That is, senior devs can -and _do_ - take generative code output, go through close-enough code and correct it to what they need, and gain productivity thereby, and they _barely even realize they're doing it_. Junior devs don't have the experience or confidence to know what needs correcting, and end up in the weeds.

@mhoye well, as a very senior developer (old) I don't use generative code at all :-)
