I have never Googled "how to center div 2025" because the last time I had to center a div was in 2024. I've never asked ChatGPT to fix a syntax error because I use Copilot. Exiting Vim is basically the only thing I know how to do in Vim, but I can do it. And my bug fixin' is generally one-for-one.

On the flip side, I can write some code without StackOverflow and AI. Writing a game in Assembly, these days, is for a specific kind of hobbyist or absolute fools. Languages using pointers are mostly for specific types of application and completely irrelevant for most programmers these days -- and the overwhelming bulk of us are better for it. And writing code by hand is an incredible talent and skill, but again, essentially useless these days.

If you are going to be this pedantic, I'll have you know Copilot is a ChatGPT model in a Microsoft skin.
