It's clear that AI assisted coding is dividing developers (welcome to the culture wars!). I've seen a few blog posts now that talk about how some people just "love the craft", "delight in making something just right, like knitting", etc, as opposed to people who just "want to make it work". As if that explains the divide.
How about this, some people resent the notion of being a babysitter to a stochastic token machine, hastening their own cognitive decline. Some people resent paying rent to a handful of US companies, all coming directly out of the TESCREAL human extinction cult, to be able to write software. Some people resent the "worse is better" steady decline of software quality over the past two decades, now supercharged. Some people resent that the hegemonic computing ecosystem is entirely shaped by the logic of venture capital. Some people hate that the digital commons is walled off and sold back to us. Oh and I guess some people also don't like the thought of making coding several orders of magnitude more energy intensive during a climate emergency.
But sure, no, it's really because we mourn the loss of our hobby.

For those not familiar, a "Cornell box" is one two things: A test simple test scene for computer graphics systems using the inside of a box, or an art piece by Joseph Cornell, who made collage art of found objects inside boxes. You'd think the former would be named after the latter, but actually, they tend to look nothing at all alike? So what gives?
Turns out the "Cornell" in the former is for Cornell University, where the original research using this scene was carried out.
Coincidence? Pun?
