After listening to Yegge's interview, I'm not sure this is accurate: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zuJyJP517Uw

For example, he makes a comment to the effect that anyone using an IDE to look at code in 2026 is a "bad engineer."

Hyperbole is very common.

  • In LLM field things move so fast that distinguishing accurate statements, mistaken statements, jokes and lies is hard.

    A result, hyperbole is more annoying than usual.
