That's how the LLMs made you think of your work? You're producing commits now? It's like "content creator" vs "writer" or "artist".

- teaearlgraycold 14d agoI'm not producing commits. LLMs are producing commits. Fix more things, solve more problems, and do it to a higher degree of quality in less time using LLMs. What's to complain about?
- nottorp 14d agoBasically that using "commits" implies a certain degree of psychological detachment from your work. Did you ever use "commits" before LLMs came out? An actual psychologist could explain it much better than me, but i notice these things.
- teaearlgraycold 14d agoFair enough. I didn’t do most of the work.
- simonw 13d agoI've long thought that commits are the principle unit of work for a software developer. We don't ofter write software from scratch, we modify existing software - and a well crafted commit is a great way to capture that effort.
