Testing suite > code.
We used to believe talk is cheap "show me the code".
Now code is cheap show me the "talk". And talk is expensive when expressed as context and tokens.

Make sure not to talk trash..

Hard times create hard programmers,
Hard programmers create AI (or JS over a deadline),
AI creates soft times,
Soft times create soft programmers,
Soft programmers create hard times.
The bottom line, it's never a lost cause to be a hard programmer. It's just time swings.
@ThePrimeagen you're welcome.
Now everyone touches grass because AI can't.
If you think developers are expensive, try AI devs.
It took me ages to upgrade years-old Python projects. Took me a couple minutes to upgrade years-old Go projects.
