I think we romanticise the old days of coding now that agents are doing it.

Regarding the average developer as an imbecile was a cottage industry from Djikstra to FizzBuzz.

I romanticized even before, because there is a reason why society's view of developers shifted from geek losers to rich in the past 15 years. I remember when 15 years ago a girl told me that I'm different, because I'm not as looser as how she imagined developers.
