This comment thread is incredible. It's like fanfiction of a real person. Of course this engineer I respect shares my opinion. Not only that, he's obviously going to quit because of this. And then he'll write a blog post I'll get to enjoy.
Anyway, this is his public, stated opinion on this: https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/pull/115762#issuecomment-2...
Of course that is what he says publicly. Can you imagine him saying anything different on this already very heated PR comment section? Those would be quoted in a headline in a news article the next second.
If he reiterates that comment to me after two beers in a relaxing bar I might believe him.
Hahaha. 1000% this. Also, first example from the linked video: a "not vibe coded, promise" example of an ascii space invaders clone... Of all the examples of "has a bunch of training code data since the 80s", this is the best representation of exactly what LLM coding is capable of "in 8 minutes".
