I would've thought that in 20 years you would have met other devs who do not think like you?

something I enjoy about our line of work is there are different ways to be good at it, and different ways to be useful. I really enjoy the way different types of people make a team that knows its strengths and weaknesses.

anyway, I know a few great engineers who shrug at the agents. I think different types of thinker find engagement with these complex tools to be a very different experience. these tools suit some but not all and that's ok
