"It writes boilerplate faster."

Is that all we aspire to now? Not abstraction or templating or better language design, just... output boilerplate faster.

It's depressing.

@xgranade The real problem for me is the existence of so much boilerplate (without tooling for it) that anyone is even tempted to reach for a chatbot.

Does anyone have an example for that? Because I don't. And I've done this shit for more than 30 years now.
