Valentin Ignatev(@valigo):Just watched Casey's episode about performance on The Pragmatic Engineer. My favorite part is: - Are you using AI to make your new game? - No - Why? - Because I don't want to And then Casey compares himself to an organic farmer guy vs IKEA factory manager. I relate to this a lot, and this is why I don't use AI for my side projects. Not because of some made-up ethical or productivity reason. I just simply don't want to, and I like that I don't have to justify it. Also, I've been sleeping on Gergely Orosz until recently, great podcast!
