I'm an actuarie, but my day to day job is being a developer. And is really funny when I'm refractoring or migrating some code where the preview developer wasn't an acturie and I can see entire pieces of code that are useless (on top on when they're just wrong) and are just there because who wrote it don't really understand the purpose of the process and added things that at the end were never used. And when they ask an LLM to translate or refractor the code, that useless code usually cause problems because they can't understand that that pieces of code have not real use and need to be ignored.
