Neither do I, personally. Though I am certainly less than inclined enjoy an article where the author is oddly preachy/"holier-than-thou", sayings things such as you're not a "real" programmer unless you sacrifice your health debugging segfaults at 3AM or have done the handmade hero challenge (certainly an interesting series to watch, but one that I have zero interest in replicating). Yet the author accuses copilot of having a superiority complex. I cannot say for sure, however I would assume if the article was in favor of AI rather than against, then there would definitely be comments about exactly this.
The overarching tone of the article seems like if it were written as a direct comment toward a user instead, it would run afoul of beehaw's (and surely other instances') rules, or at the least come really close to skirting the line - and I don't mean the parts where the author is speaking of/to copilot.
Is there a programmer version of linkedin lunatics? Seems like there would be heaps of content for it with people like this being the software equivalent of the business major's motivational posting lmao.
