@hajovonta @sushee What's been really infuriating about the uptake of agentic coding is the (re)discovery of software engineering principles like proper design documentation, specification, and acceptance testing. We've known the importance of all these things since the 60s and 70s but typically don't spend time on them because coding is (was?) more enjoyable, writing about the code was perceived as less valuable than implementing the code, and having a formal structured process was suffocating, Legacy, and not 'agile' enough.

Nobody would write out this critical information for human use but devs are suddenly overjoyed to write it all down now that they have expensive obsequious incompetent plagiarizing coding robots.

It's like every episode of The Simpsons with Homer being an idiot and doing the right thing for all the wrong reasons.

There's so much anti-humanity bundled up in the commercial LLM space, it's infuriating and depressing.
