> hunting for and fixing obscure bugs is actually one of the most intellectually rewarding. I would miss that if it were to be taken over by a machine.

That's fascinating to me. It's the thing I literally hate the most.

When I'm writing new code, I feel like I'm delivering value. When I'm fixing bugs, I feel like it's a frustrating waste of time caused by badly written code in the first place, making it a necessary evil. (Even when I was the one who wrote the original code.)
