The comment you’re replying to already explains why they have a corkscrew… I’m used to people not reading the article they’re commenting on, but this is the first time I see someone not reading the comment they’re replying to.
Writing the code is usually not the bottleneck, so you don’t gain that much speeding it up. And as I said, you lose a lot of knowledge about the code when you don’t write it yourself.
Unless coding is most of your job, which is rare, you’re giving up really knowing what your software does in order to achieve a very minor speed up. Just to end up having to spend way more time later trying to understand the AI generated code when inevitably something breaks.
> And if you do it the way I describe you get to both use AI, AND have "a much better understanding of the codebase (and way better code)".
Using AI is not a goal in itself, so I don’t care about “getting to use AI”. I care about doing my job as efficiently as possible, considering all parts of my job, not just coding.
Might as well just write the code yourself at that point. And as a bonus, end up with a much better understanding of the codebase (and way better code)
> Half the country or more just doesn't work or do anything else when there's an important match anyway.
This is completely false. In the first half of this LaLiga season, the most watched match had 3 million viewers: https://barloventocomunicacion.es/informes-barlovento/el-fut... Spain has a population of almost 50M. So the most viewed match was around 6% of the population.
I’m not sure what makes you think you “know Spain” enough to throw this kind of ridiculous claim around, but please inform yourself.
