I feel exactly like this — contributing code to my company’s libraries is decidedly not a part of my JD, but I’ve contributed ~4 features in the past 2 months and had a great time doing it! But so interesting to read the exact opposite take and wonder why: taggart-tech.com/reckoning/

taggart-tech.comI used AI. It worked. I hated it.I used Claude Code to build a tool I needed. It worked great, but I was miserable. I need to reckon with what it means.

I'm thinking liking this new way of coding is correlated to whether your results orientated. If you liked the process of writing the code more than the results, you probably don't like the new way.
