   @argv_minus_one @ireneista @davidgerard Yeah. I wonder how much of the Slopfondler contingent is people who heard the last 30 years of "learn to code" as career advice/pressure, did, got a job they hate as a code monkey for some evil megacorp monpoly that should have been broken up in 2007, and now that they finally have some way to stop doing real work (that they hate) are mad that those of us with any sense of ethics want to blow up the datacenters.

     If Mr Andersen doesn't want to write code by hand, then it seems to me that he's stuck writing code, considers an LLM to be a godsend in helping him do it with a minimum of struggle, and would rather be doing something else—making music, for example—but can't because it wouldn't pay his bills.

     I hope one day there is a post-scarcity society in which people like him aren't forced by economic pressure to give up their talents and passions like this.
