Yes you have to understand when the log stuck in CNC machine, if you want to put the carpentry analogy to its extreme.

I love programming CNC machines; I am a terrible carpenter. Someone still has to tell the LLMs what to build, specify design constraints and goals, etc

Yes, the easy part is still there.

Funny, working in product I think designing the right thing is far more difficult and interesting than just typing in source code.

You're the second person itt using an expression "typing in code". Guys I understand your excitement now that you too finally can make computers do what you want but it's not how programming worked at all.

Yeah I cut my teeth on 6502 assembly and know IDK how many languages. I get it.

It’s still typing in code.
