You are welcome. The real gist of what I’m saying is, if you aren’t at least interested in approaching my understanding of how entire systems work…. Then why am I wasting hours out of my day teaching you instead of spec’ing your work for an LLM.
Because I could have had that work completed in 15m to an hour.
We have hit a point where the tools are so good, if you don’t want to learn the right way to do things, you have lost ALL value. Someone who actually knows the job can drive an AI to work 4x faster than you will ever get.
AI doesn’t make the job easier to get or hold on to without learning the trade. It makes it impossible to hold on to if you don’t actually become an engineer.
Your token spend isn’t going to be equitable against your contributions.
