it's becoming apparent that we have like 5 classes of LLM haters

- the environmental fearmongering types who can't math

- the people who mistakenly think copyright is good for society and innovation and believe all output is somehow a stolen string of code

- the developers who are really into the compsci side and want all code to be perfect and concise (commendable, but unrealistic; these are the folks who should live in the university/research sector)

- the autistics who like the "puzzle" of chasing errors, diving into a debugger for hours on end and somehow derive joy from this

- the autistics who want to build a community around every git repo because their only friends are on the internet

I feel called out :niggaupsidedownface:

for real though, I advanced in my job by having fun fixing stuff that no one wanted to touch, and now that things are trending AIward and my job would be reduced to digital paper-pushing, so I'm out. also I hate corpolife, but I don't think I'd code for pay in general if I could help it
