I enjoy writing code.

I've tried AI tooling in the past and it felt wrong to me. The software was alright (it worked).

I don't know if anyone can relate, but it didn't feel like it was "mine". I didn't even keep the project/code. It was a working software emulator for a video game console but I felt zero connection with it and couldn't even get myself to keep the code.

Maybe I'm old fashioned and/or stubborn, but I like to write code. I like to know the minute details with regards to how things work. I like to know every function an API provides. I like to understand the differences between platforms, devices, hardware, etc. I've always loved it and always will.
