how do you mean? surely you're paid for delivering product not coding? if it is the latter, I too would love to be paid for recreational coding

You misunderstood my reply. I'm talking about culture, not engineering or coding.

I'm just grateful I don't work with people that say "good riddance" to blanket foreign talent bans, and "catch up or get left behind" to fellow engineers.

That doesn't sound like a nice place to work? Is all I'm saying.

I don't think this is related to culture, it's just the internet nowadays. You need hot takes for engagement. That user probably runs with that mindset always on

That's fair. My internet bubble is intentionally very small.

Or, you know, just plain ol’ racism

TIL I’m (a Polish-Canadian) being racist because I don’t like the quality of the work Polish offshore developers my boss hired on the cheap.

Yeah, exactly.

Something not being the primary reason I'm paid does not imply that it's "solved". Personally, I enjoy working at a company where people have intellectual curiosity about varying viewpoints to ambiguous questions like "is coding solved?" rather than scolding people who don't adhere to the dogma as being "left behind".

To be clear, I use LLMs every day as part of my work pretty much entirely because my employer wants me to and has encouraged me to make them part of my workflow. They've managed to do that without anyone saying anything as aggressive as the parent commenter.
