Ask HN: Do you enjoy generating your code?

2•decentrabbit•1mo ago
I am curious to hear from people that like the process of generating and reading most of the code they ship. Have you simply changed what and how you enjoy your work? I find it very boring.

Comments

For me it feels kind of bad, i know i have not written it line by line and don't know it "by the heart" and it's super easy to miss bugs/edge cases that way. Let alone make architectural decisions based on the output because the whole logic structure is simply not in your memory to work with. Sure, you're thinking "wow that was fast", but deep inside you know the impersonal lifeless commit will haunt you and you will NOT remember what's in there in 2 days (like you do learning by writing things). Code used to be personal and exciting without ai. Creativity suffers and so is your brain usage. I am 100% sure that studies looking at complex tasks vs decline in dementia will plumment after ai.

It takes the only fun thing of programming for me, like playing puzzle game except you sometimes just comment on how the ai is solving the puzzle incorrectly

Never in my life i have wanted to be a farmer as much as i want to now

decentrabbit•1mo ago
Yes! I'm not well-versed on dementia precursors, but I would not be surprised if it increases quite a bit in the next 50 years
verdverm•1mo ago
Yes, I don't have to waste time on boilerplate and get to focus on the interesting parts... design, arch, data model, and algos

Do you really enjoy endlessly writing function sigs, for loops, and if statements?

I never enjoyed the stuff I use AI for, that's why I'm using AI for it.

decentrabbit•1mo ago
Good to hear that you use AI for stuff you don't enjoy doing
