    “If you’re told you have to do a code review, it’s never a fun part of the job. When you’re working with these tools, it’s most of the job.”

    This for me is the worst part of the AI take over that is happening, management people at my company keep saying that it automates the boring stuff and leaves you more time for the fun stuff. But for me writing code is the best part about my job.

      The internet at large has been scraped dry it would appear.

      Now they are on to scraping the skills of people by having them correct the poorly done work of the AI.

      When the AI is mature enough, you’ll be given your walking papers.

      It sucks ass.

      Lately I’ve heard they implemented 6 hour code reviews at my company. Vibe coding and vibe reviews I guess 🤷‍♂️

      Deciphering and debugging that “boring stuff” is what will supplant the original “boring” work of writing code.
