No, I find it strange that people like to input text into an editor so much that LLMs make them sad.

It is never just inputing text into an editor. When I write a piece of code, it is just the first draft of what I have in mind. Most of the time I change the code interactively until I'm satisfied. The act of writing the code myself helps in clarifying my ideas.

Are you saying that that is no longer fun with LLMs?

Fun or not fun it is a personal perspective. What I was saying was that when you write code you also think deeply about what you actually write and you have the opportunity to optimize, change ideas and overall improve. A programming language is more precise and succinct than natural language in expressing algorithms/ideas.
