I don't understand what is going on, why are people even spending time on this? I think this and copilot and etc are solving a non problem of "we will remove the boring part of programming" by generating a bunch of code, so now it's even more boring to read it and check if it actually does what you want.

In the same time zero of the developers I interviewed know how a linked list is laid out in memory, or what is the pro/con of continuous memory layouts, or even how a cpu works actually.

Maybe those things are not needed anymore, but I see their code... I think it will be better if they know them.
