I hate that AI has made it harder to enjoy code reviews. I know it's always been a common thing to have ripped code in a PR but at least it took a tiny bit of skill to adapt it properly to the codebase.

If I see a clever (and maintainable ofc) solution in a PR now I usually just assume it was AI that wrote it. This goes the other way too, if I write some code I'm proud of, I assume my reviewers will just assume it was generated :(

I stopped enjoying writing code completely, but its been interesting to watch everyone else who started to enjoy it MORE with Ai.

It seems to be a certain group of programmers who always were more motivated by getting the result out the door than the experience of putting code together in a certain way.

I suspect the era of high salaries as a programmer is over, since companies now feel they can replace people even easier.

That's what I've noticed to. Mm I have co worker who don't even read the code anymore. Full on vibe. Makes me so frustrated

Yeah it is but I guess there is nothing anyone can do about it now. People wont admit it but they know thats how most or all programmers will work in the future.
