## AI overview

The article reflects on how LLMs and coding agents compress software development feedback loops, making substantial amounts of code appear within minutes. It argues that this speed can reduce the time engineers spend thinking deeply, evaluating their approach, and correcting course.

## Source excerpt

Some people are drawn to software engineering, and not everyone is like that. But a common characteristic among engineers (myself included) is the thrill of building something and seeing it work. Maybe it is not the whole system, but some piece of i
