    This is how AI writes code. In about one to two years, all code will look like this, and neither human nor AI will be able to maintain it. The industry will be fucked.

      I do my very best to write code like I’m writing English prose, because understandable code is maintainable code, so when people say things like “AI is bad for art, like books, but it’s great for things that don’t matter, like software” it really grinds my nuts.

      It just baffles me how many programmers think of programming not as their artisan profession but as an irritating chore they have to get through.
