No, LLMs Won't End Programming—It's a Craft, Not a Casualty

It's Not the End of Programming

In a fediverse post, Jencel Panic pushes back against the claim that LLM coding agents signal the end of programming. He argues that programming is a craft that predates the IT industry and will endure, comparing its evolution to how the printing press didn't end hand drawing. Panic also reflects on hacker culture, noting that computers are just machines without the human spirit that makes them interesting.
