I know a lot of people, in software and otherwise, who are feeling things along these lines.

Hold on, whatever tools you’re using, just hold on to your sense of purpose and meaning. There are a lot of forces at work in this world that want to rob you of that. Your feeling of losing that is not recognition of some new fact of our reality; it is you experiencing a psychological weapon.

@inthehands This is why I live stream my coding, which I do without the use of LLMs. I love the thinking/design process AND the writing of the code. And while it might *seem* slow, so what? The journey is (mostly!) enjoyable and provides meaning and community for me.

Similarly, this is why I "live blog" my coding, nearly every day. I love the craft itself.

"AI" should do the things we don't like to do, like take out the trash and clean the bathroom. Let people do the things they like to do.
