Yeeep, I don’t understand it. I’ve always known some people were only in tech for the money rather than the genuine interest in software but apparently it’s most people given how most of my coworkers excitedly boast about not writing any code in weeks. Writing code is the only fun part of being a developer :(

It’s really disheartening. I originally pursued tech for the money but I fell in love with it as a sort of creative outlet a few years into my career. I actually WANT to make new tools but my coworkers immediately outsourced their brains and come asking me for help because the code they got from copilot (and didn’t test) is breaking something in production.

Yes, it drives me nuts as an engineer seeing other engineers use copilot, especially the ones who should absolutely know better
