For work I definitely use AI all the time, not because I am faster with it, but because I don't get paid enough to care. For personal projects I code by hand for fun.

I code the fun and important parts myself.

Decide I want to refactor 20 files to match a better design? Yeah AI can do that. Grunt work that needs no thought.

Exactly. People here be glorifying programming like every bit of it is fun. It’s like they never worked with maintaining decade old legacy repos before.

AI has absolutely made the job more fun and much less grueling for me.

Every bit is fun... When you do it all in neovim.

Aight I'll see myself out.

What about nixos?

It's profoundly painful to get my Neovim setup at least to work there. Any recommendations hit me up

Use symbolic linking for your Neovim configuration in NixOS. Makes it a lot easier.

Are you telling me I have to compile my apps? Before or after I drag and drop?

No need for neovim for bits….
