this one somewhat misses this experience tbh imo it’s the element of pacing one’s work that’s missing; pre-AI you’d often be forced by these bugs to step away and touch grass, now it takes consciously pulling yourself away not wholly a bad thing, but can be very easy to get caught in AI mania

Before AI, there would be times where I would be stumped by a bug so much I would just have to step away and look at it again with fresh eyes hours or days later. Basically all SWEs had moments like this. But it's just not something I experience anymore at all

don’t get it wrong, this one loves how much more of its ideas it’s been able to put into actuality, and AI has been a huge help for its ADHD with being able to actually get shit done but taking breaks takes much more effort now when the same ADHD brain can vibe ideas into existence with a prompt
