Gergely Orosz(@GergelyOrosz):It’s a weird complaint to have but with AI agents, that “flow state” during coding is gone (because the coding itself is gone.) Every time I talk with a dev about work now vs before, it seems to come up, like today with a former colleague. Are we over-glorifying it (I mean it wasn’t all roses, it was also frustration) or is it something important / relevant they we had but now don’t really have?
