I wonder how much of the LLM-for-coding hype is because the last 15 years in mainstream coding veered ever more enterprisey layer cakes that took all the fun out of programming

@thomasfuchs probably about 99%.

Of course people are going to turn to these things when the last 20 years of programming industry has relentlessly added layer upon layer of shit, and actively fought any attempt by developers to actually be proud of their work.
