Cope? Vibe coder? I've been a professional software developer for more than 15 years. Coding was fun while I was a student, once I hit the job market it became just work. I'm happy for you if you actually like it but the shine wore off a long time ago for me.

    My lukewarm take on this is that it's like assembly. Virtually no one writes it manually anymore, as we've kept moving on to higher and higher level languages. LLM programming will end up being its own kind of programming.

    For me the fun stuff was never the act of coding, it was more about coming up with an elegant solution for the problem at hand. The LLM let's me focus on that and takes care of the boring part of implementing my design.

    Fair enough. But some of the attitude here seems to be "ewww creepy guy talked to you, you narrowly avoided rape" when in all likelyhood the dude was probably just awkward... We need more empathy in general, not just towards girls and women.

    We're in a thread talking about a growing problem with young men, and you're asking "How will it impact the lives of women". I'm just trying to answer the question... Just take a few seconds to reflect on how the message you're spreading throughout the whole thread (that 1/3 women have been raped, etc) can be received by young boys. That stat you quote elsewhere about 52% of men feeling we discriminate against men, why do you think they feel that way?

    Overall, I agree that there's been a problem with discrimination towards women, and sexual abuse is a problem. But the way to solve it is to teach people about consent, not to treat every man as a rapist.

    Not what anyone here means. But telling little boys that they're all worthless evil rapists isn't healthy either. Do not be surprised when they listen to someone who tells them they're worth something. Do you really want that someone to be Andrew Tate? Because that'll definitely end up worse for women (and society in general).

    Antagonizing little boys isn't the way we get out of this.
