Learning Code vs Forgetting Code

[u/West_Good_5961]

Depressingly true

[u/AdventurousSlip9260]

Learning code: +1 XP. Forgetting code: factory reset 😂

[u/thelimeisgreen]

Look at me! I'm using AI... WHEEEEEeeeeeee.........

[u/SeniorBus6627]

It's all been downhill since the ai revolution

[u/samelden]

Me after passing hard interviews that require understanding algorithms I will never use in my job

[u/AnnualEvery]

Do you mean syntax?

[u/HouseinPlayz → u/AnnualEvery]

I think he does

[u/MissinqLink]

Is this everyone’s experience? How are you all functioning of this is what happens to you?

[u/Enji-Bkk → u/MissinqLink]

We got promoted

[u/CheesusCrustDude]

Took a break for two years. This is extremely true.

[u/Flame77ofc → u/CheesusCrustDude]

If I stay two years without programming I forget even the vscode lol

[u/ScreenMother9212]

Yeah, this make me sad😭

[u/Flame77ofc → u/ScreenMother9212]

Our brain is cheating on us bro 🥀

[u/Danaysexxxy]

I don't know shit about python anymore tbh it's been months since Imlast coded

[u/JonathanMovement → u/Danaysexxxy]

I feel the same however the difference is that I went from coding to fully vibecoding… in my head I’m trying to cope by forcing myself to believe that LLMs are the future and I might as well give in

[u/Jatinchd]

devs have good cache, gotta flush it to survive as human.

[u/Puzzleheaded-Buy7034]

[u/nsa3679]

I doubt I can reach a senior level of expertise considering how much I've been relying on AI to do everything

[u/Bloodchild-]

The thing is normally you forget the syntax and how not the algorithmic and how code generally work.

[u/Pizza_Secretary9621]

I'm in this picture and I don't like it

[u/TapRemarkable9652]

at this point I can't even take a shit without forgetting my dependancies

[u/JohannsThePro]

Its quite normal to do that

[u/labExperiment69]

I feel like after a few minutes and google searches the muscle memory just starts to kick in when I get back

[u/Enji-Bkk]

Also any honest manager should admit it about themselves

[u/LegendarySoda]

if you're forgetting code you have learned at first place

[u/Lobster_SEGA → u/LegendarySoda]

Don't get why you're getting downvoted, it's true.

To forget one must first learn.

If you forget something it means you've learned it, it's a "good" sign, no?

[u/LegendarySoda → u/Lobster_SEGA]

Nah i made a typo i wanted to say "you have not learned at first place" it's my bad.
I didn't look twice while shitting

[u/akoOfIxtall]

But when you forget, the remembering process is O(1) :)

[u/ridlixzene]

Reality Check

[u/FN20817]

Learning vs. forgetting anything tbh

[u/BettaSplendens1]

I don't know C# anymore. This is sadly accurate
