IE LLM then RFC takes more time then RFC then solving the issue.
Because you should have read RFC 1331.
Even then your argument assumes that optimising for total time (to include your own learning time) is the goal, and not solving the business case as a priority (your actual problem). That assumption may not be the case when you have a patch to submit. What you solve at what time point is the general case, there’s no single optimum.
Having a less skilled worker is a tradeoff for getting one very specific task accomplished sooner, that might be worth it especially if you plan to quit soon but it’s hardly guaranteed.
Whereas it's been all morning and you're still reading the RFC, and it's the wrong RFC anway.
I know who i'd hire.
This time it worked, but I’ve been forced for fire people with this kind of attitude before.
> LLMs allowing optimal time use in certain case
I never said it was slower, I’m saying what’s the tradeoff. I’ve had this same basic conversation with multiple people, and after that failed the only real option is to remove them. Ex: If you don’t quite understand why what you wrote seemingly fixes a bug don’t commit it yet, seems to work isn’t a solution.
Could be I’m not explaining very well, but ehh fuck em.
