What does Luddite mean to you?

It's peculiar that you singled-out that specific sentence from my entire comment. I sense a trap being laid, but I'll bite anyway.

Luddites were skilled craftspeople who are afraid of technology/progress supplanting them, which is largely what is happening when people reject jj in favour of arcane git incantations as part of a vastly more laborious git workflow.

The biggest way in which this label does not apply here, is that luddites were also primarily fighting for their economic positions, which were of course completely threatened by new technology. Whereas jj doesn't cost anyone anything - its just a toolbox and way of operating that just makes you more efficient. My point still stands, regardless of how fitting the label was.

Luddite would more directly apply to (probably the same set of people) those who are completely against ai/llms for any degree of coding, as it clearly has the potential to eliminate jobs. Though, of course, the most experienced and skilled people are well-positioned to leverage llms as cheap junior devs who can be instructed, guided, corrected etc to produce what is needed. It new, less-skilled devs/apprentices who would be most justified in fighting against LLMs, under the Luddite banner. Though we tend to see that they embrace llms most
