Many times in my career I've wondered if I should ever have accepted that first promotion to management. Back in ye olde times, I was a #systemsadministrator and a #programmer. Occasionally I am nostalgic for the deep feeling of flow that accompanies working on a problem or #coding.
Today is not one of those days.
For the past couple of days I've been playing with #replit, an application that builds working web apps from your natural language description of features and functions.
Its performance is nothing less than stunning. It's not that it turns out better code than a human would, but rather that it turns out solid, working code faster than previously imaginable.
Beyond that, it is incredibly intuitive about what it is I'm trying to do. The implementation suggests future enhancements, all of which (so far, at least) have been on point.
