You are close, but I am actually dark brown in skin color, although I would colloquially be referred to as "black" given both my skin color and my racial background.
And by brown I assume you are using a racial colloquialism, and not referring to raw skin pigmentation. So although I am technically "brown" in terms of skin pigmentation(as people of African descents are mostly dark brown in reality, "black" is just colloquialism, although these South Sudanese motherfuckers can be black, well to be honest it's still mostly just a very dark shade of brown technically) I am not brown in the sense, I assume, you are talking about. So you are only 50% right.

It's really fun anon.
I can't stop.
I will create systems until I die.

I mostly program because it makes me feel alive, not because someone tell me to.
Programming gives me freedom and power, so for me to do it because someone tells me to, would go against the very of nature what programming is to me.
I actually dislike doing anything that makes me feel I lack creative control, or where shipping features is put above sound architecture and efficient creative problem-solving decisions.
I like to see green on my github graph because it feels rewarding.
Committing to personal shit is rewarding also in and of itself. Helps me keep track of everything in my project and gives makes me feel accomplished with each small granular commit.

Programming and electronics(big up /diy/) truly are the highest form of human art anon.
It might sound blasphemous, but truly, when I'm programming or /diy/, I just wonder, is this how God feels?
When He created me, was He marveled and full of love at the biological and spiritual systems he was transmuting into reality? Just like I am when I transmute my ideas into C++ lines?
They say He made man in His image.
It's really sad when people such as >>108529742 treat programming as a means to an end without any sort of love. This is why so much software nowadays is fucking garbage and why we are seeing absolute fuckery such as Electronware being used for hundreds of projects forcing me to have multiple instances of fucking Chromium just to run programs that should be simple, hogging my memory for no justifiable reason whatsoever.
When computers got faster and as frameworks/tooling developed/improved, the need to be meticulous and creative about one's programming reduced and people started to ignore sound design choices. The cost for making poorly optimized design choices and lacking creativity and meticulousness greatly reduced. Contributing the fuckers treating programming like a means to an end instead of the art that it is.

This is also why I dislike the term "coding".
Coding emphasizes the idea of just... writing "code". As if we were writing random runes or something. Which is what a lot of normalfags think programming is. It removes the creative and artistic aspect of the shit. The fact that it's applied creative systems-thinking / problem-solving.

I'm not corporate.
I'm an artist.
And a child of God made in His image.
Happy Easter anons

That wasn't a complement. You're like a giant smelly turd, it's painful to push out and you wouldn't want to have to be in that situation in the first place but once it was passed you really couldn't help to be impressed and simultaneously repulsed but it's existence.

The problems I outlined existed before LLMs were ever trained on repositories and stackoverflow posts, anon .
I do not necessarily have a problem with the use of LLMs.
Lack of meticulousness, creativity, and care for architecture are not obligate conditions on the use of LLMs in the context of programming, nor is the use of LLMs contingent to these patterns.
>>108530044
>That wasn't a complement.
I will take it as a compliment nevertheless.
>You're like a giant smelly turd
This is factually incorrect.
I'm not a giant as I am only 5'11" tall (although desu I hate foot'inches" system it's fucking retarded Euros are right. 182 cm really).
You might be referring to weight, but I'm only 150 lbs which is relatively skinny for my height.
And I smell very good.
>it's painful to push out and you wouldn't want to have to be in that situation in the first place but once it was passed you really couldn't help to be impressed and simultaneously repulsed but it's existence
oh sorry, I replied before reading your full text and hadn't realized "LIKE a giant smelly turd" was a simile used to set up a juxtaposition with antithesis in the structure.
It's pretty good though anon.
And honestly you are right it's a good metaphor for my self, when I think about it. For life in general, actually. It's painful to push out, and you really don't want to be in this situation in the first place in general, but once it passed you can't help but be both marveled and disgusted at it. And you have to keep pushing again and again these giant smelly turds, which really and truly are are meaningless, until you die.
Pretty good anon. "Impressive" dare I say. Big up yourself.

Based artistic soul anon.
When people ask what my job is, I jokingly begin with "I'm a metaphysicist", before clarifying that I'm a programmer.

Programming is, after all, without any exaggeration or sentimental interpretation, applied metaphysics.
