I don't care about the product as much as I care about the code.

I used to share this sentiment but the more I used AI for programming, the less I enjoyed it. Even writing "boring" code (like tests or summaries) by hand increased my understanding of what I wrote and how it integrates into the rest of the codebase, which I think is fun.

Letting a robot write code for me, however tedious it would be to write manually, made me feel like I was working in someone else's codebase. It reminds me of launching a videogame and letting someone else play through the boring parts. I might as well not be playing. Why bother at all?

I understand this behaviour if you're working for a company on some miserable product, but not for personal projects.

Use outline instead:

  outline: solid 10px red;
Nearly identical to border, but without affecting layout at all.

I've tried many note taking methods, including paper, and none of it really fit my needs. So I wrote my own application, just for me, with nobody else in mind. It's perfect and I recommend everyone to do the same.

The difference between those two is that, by smoking, you become the aggressor. If being considerate and empathetic is "solving someone else's problem" then I don't see how that's entitled. Don't smoke in public.

Did you mean "literate"?

I'm fairly certain that pixelpoet is referring to direct raycasting, not raytracing (light transport simulations). These aren't noisy.
