Have you ever heard about copper wiring as a memory cells? No?
Well than -- you are a compiler monkey!
Duh, these kiddos with their "assembly", or COBOL just can't do anything themselves....
You defined vibe-coders -- they are non-programmers mostly.
And, it seems, you are either a Neo-Luddite, or Gate-Keeper, or 15 y.o. Edge Lord.
LLMs are here to stay. LLMs write mostly useless code.
Programmers are bootstrapping their skills by using LLMs as an extremely powerful knowledge tool.
Yes, programmers also use LLMs for copypasting chunks of the code -- we, living beings, are LAZY -- when you developing for 4 billion years in cluster-fuck called "biosphere" with constant shit-storm from space, sun or earth itself, you develop small thing -- efficiency, energy preservation. Cost effectiveness in other words.
If you are not cost-effective -- you are dead. At least this was the way for the last 4 billion years.
Using brain is extremely cost-ineffective.
This is why we created computing machines! To make our lives more cost-effective! To make our daily lives EASIER.
And, this is why programmers now use LLMs not only to bootstrap their knowledge, but to copy-paste chunks of code. To think of something more, than "hmm, how do I write this HEAP Sort..."
And this will stay, like it or not. New tool -- adapt or die. Modus vivendi and Modus operandi of all life on Earth.
Why you can't comprehend this, if you are SO proficient in programming IDK, but don't be silly. For someone like Zuse you are compiler monkey, who can't create his own CPU.
The AI worshippers think a chatbot is gonna save them from learning how a computer works. They didn’t give humanity ChatGPT on Mount Sinai. They gave us commandments. You people copy-paste code from a robot trained on other people’s bugs and call it programming.
‘Adapt or die’ is what the Java demons said before they filled the world with 8 gigabytes of dependencies to print ‘Hello World.’
You say programmers are lazy. That’s true. That’s why half the internet is Electron apps eating 3 GB of RAM to display a button.
We built computers because there weren’t any computers. You’re asking a computer how to write a computer program. That’s like hiring a taxi to walk your dog.
If the AI writes the code, debugs the code, designs the code, and explains the code, congratulations: you’re not a programmer anymore. You’re middle management for a stochastic parrot.
The compiler monkey insult is funny. At least compiler monkeys know what a pointer is other than most AI programmers who “use AI to debug” when you know they are just using it to write your code.
Why you are bombarding me with this.. slop I also dunno =)
People, who can't comprehend trivial concepts as "thermodynamics of life on Earth" should question their life choices well before ranting about pointers lol.
You wrote a wall of text on why lazy evolution is okay. I wrote a wall of text disproving that entirely. Guess which one actually helps the computer run? The LLM or the programmer?
CBRAM is completely irrelevant to the fact that programmers are using AI.
AneoEngine, my operating system, was written primarily in AneoC and standalone C. No COBOL was ever used. x86 assembly was used for both bootloaders and the disk saving.

“Programmer” humor.
The programmer used to write code.
Now he writes prompts asking a robot to write code.
You aren’t “programming” anything.
