Before-after AI

Coding before AI: I lean into the screen, eyes glazed over, tumbling down multiple rabbit holes of code all at once, lost.
Coding after AI: I lean back, reading the code, thinking, asking it to explain line by line, why this, why that… then copy paste.
Kinda prefer and enjoy this now.
More intentional, mindful, calm.
And I’m learning 10x more programming than I ever did, compared to the past getting brain melt from trying to triangulate between 3 Stackoverflow answers, a blog post from 2000s, and a random Youtube video by a dev from India.
Who said AI is going to take jobs away?!
AI gave me a job! A job now as a frontend developer for a local startup!
