@sue @onepict It is good advice but I don’t get why people make this distinction between junior and senior programmers. As if at some point, relatively early during one’s career, one gets to the point where they know good code and they can stop learning. I am three decades into it and I am still learning to control complexity at various levels and keep updating my trade off estimates. LLMs are as dangerous for seniors as they are for juniors, you just get stuck or regress from a higher level.

@sue The other bit is this one:
"And companies: you must let juniors write the code."

@sue "Love" the "Family, friends, family of friends" part.
"Just use nepotism folks! What, your parents work somewhere that doesn't have an IT department, like a store or restaurant? Well guess you die then, byyyyeee!"
Like, how can you write something like this and not cringe just a little?
