I remember 6 years back, when I got the chance to glimpse into how other engineers write code, something felt strange. Some of them, would write it differently than I did.
It took me 6 years and the invention of AI code-assistance to finally understand the hidden meaning behind all that.
Recently, I saw an article posted on Reddit about how Copilot generated code is causing disconcerting trends in code maintainability. And then, everything clicked. So I wrote a short piece titled: How to stay junior forever.
Happy reading.
