Lucie / minutethe argument "but you're also no longer using a fountain pen to write" against hand-written code is silly to me. i think close to 100% of people would rather read a short story written in fountain pen by octavia e. butler or william gibson than something that a rando ai-prompted? they could even take their time, why would it need to be rushed?
ailurux@mntmn i don't use a fountain pen, but i do often use a pen. often when i want to make sense of something or learn something new, as i find writing helps me to connect thoughts, and the extra time taken to physically note something down often helps me remember it. i may be able to type faster with a keyboard, but that presumes that the goal of writing is to output as many words as possible and not an intrinsic human behaviour
