Had a realization as I was reading an interview with someone who loves programming recently: some of the hype over LLMs is because many programmers don’t enjoy programming and are relieved not to have to do it anymore

@vboykis I learned that I love building, assembling systems and seeing my ideas realized

I found joy in writing code at times but I never *loved it* so yes I am quite relieved that its no longer necessary to achieve what I do love
