> Yes I dont decide anymore exactly which line number the function is in, but that never mattered did it? What matters is how your objects compose and how you handle edge cases. I still do that.
I would say it does matter, and always did.
Obviously, not every single line order matters with performance results that you can measure. That's not what I'm saying. But every decision does add up to who deserves the credit for the thing. Especially with how you describe your role. And then you assure me for each of those critical decisions, it's you who makes that decision.
In another thread you accuse me of constructing a strawman and then ignoring any counter evidence. But not a single person has ever provided anything above a token "I'm just built different", contained within a response as if the fictional person, sorry, "strawman" I've created is a personal attack. If it doesn't accurate represent you, why does it bother you? I'm getting strong, thou doth protest too much vibes.
Again, I'm not directly accusing you. I try very hard to believe someone when they tell me something. So I am actively trying to believe the things you've said. But you offer nothing above "nah man, I'm different, promise". Meanwhile I have dozens of examples of people vibe coding, and responding to the answer of, 'why' with: "I don't know, the LLM did that". Your example I've never seen, not once. My example is terrifyingly common.
When I try to merge what you promise yeu do, with what I've actually seen occur out in real life. I end up with, what I'm sure you'll angerly object as, just another strawman, but again I'm asking for something other than hollow reassurances: Because what you describe is close to an artist, teaching an apprentice. The apprentice does the work, perhaps exactly as instructed by the artist. But then when the artists sells the work. They claim that it's their creation. As if the apprentice never existed. It's disgusting behavior when the apprentice is a person, but shameful for an entirely different reason if the apprentice is a large block of token weights.
I don't for a second believe, all you have opencode do for you is refactor based on a specification you wrote (belief != disbelief) but still feel you deserve the assumption of the best possible interpretation. If all your apprentice did was clean the brushes, and take the pottery out of the kiln. Then yes, you created everything. But given my assumption that's not actually what reality looks like, help me understand the delta between these two examples?
They don't say, My team did this. Or Look how good I am teaching, my student created this. Or anything of the nature. They pass off work and effort, and expertise, As if they wrote every line of code. Some people do sheepishly admit the used an LLM when writing some patch. But many MANY more, don't.
If you actually don't feel like you're misrepresenting how much credit you deserve. Then I'm hoping you can explain to me, why so many people who don't try, and just blindly trust the vibe slop, don't feel embarrassed? Because I'm so far from it, that I don't have the context required to understand that lack of integrity. But perhaps someone who does it the correct way can explain it to me?
Well I'm not a coder so maybe my opinion doesn't count, but I did help build digitalocean so I know a little about them. I think the reason so many people don't feel embarrassed is simpler and less sinister than a lack of integrity... they jsut never had the relationship to craft that you have. You very clearly care about the decisions.. you care where the function goes, errors up and down stream the accumulation of small choices that make something yours!! From what I've seen that's a craftsman's relationship to work. It's valid, it's fair, and it's commendable. That said: most people who work generally, including writing code don't have that. They never did. Before LLMs they were copying from stackoverflow without understanding it, which by your own definition was already the problem. But another thing I learned in art school, at great craftsman never blames their tools, the existence of people who use a tool badly has never been a good argument that the tool is the problem. As i said earlier, film school was full of people passing off purchased presets as their own creative work. They weren't shameless because Final Cut existed. They were shameless because they were shameless!!! lol The dean told me to stop fixating on them but because it was consuming energy I could've spent on my own work. An extreme, but just like I accept gay people are gay when I'm stright, trans people are trans when I'm cisgender, I accept other people are not like me and find joy in very many divergent places, and I am nobody to judge another's joy in life.
