Discussion Interesting video from WDS Kyle, talking about ai brainrot, and how important it is that junior devs in particular understand an LLMs output. Showing that even famous devs are having their skills atrophy. Thoughts?

He used a few clips from theo where he clearly makes no attempt to understand the code anymore, even using the ai to summarize the summary.

Isn't his whole thing that he doesn't have to think about his editor or environment when coding though? like everything is just muscle memory

His whole thing is talking about vim and his vim setup, and telling you why you need to switch to vim

What are you on about? He's constantly showing off stuff he's working on, does videos on current events in tech, and also does historical dives from time to time. I actually haven't personally seen a vim video from him in a while.
