> LLM coding will split up engineers based on those who primarily liked coding and those who primarily liked building.
I’ve always said I’m a builder even though I’ve also enjoyed programming (but for an outcome, never for the sake of the code)
This perfectly sums up what I’ve been observing between people like me (builders) who are ecstatic about this new world and programmers who talk about the craft of programming, sometimes butting heads.
One viewpoint isn’t necessarily more valid, just a difference of wiring.
