Simon Willison 转载 Jeremy Scheff《我为编程写的讣告》：编程智能体夺走了程序员的解谜乐趣
My obituary for programming
Jeremy Scheff 在《我为编程写的讣告》中写道，编程智能体让以解谜为乐的职业程序员失去了编程中最核心的乐趣。他指出，编程曾是你能想象到的最好的工作之一：有人付钱让你解决刁钻的逻辑小谜题，谜题越难报酬越高，连简单的谜题也很值钱，因为普通人做不了，需要程序员来解决问题、制定策略、安排时间线并界定什么可行。对于热衷于构建可运行系统、不太在意沿途解决什么问题的程序员，LLM 是持续馈赠；但如果直接解题本身构成了你乐趣的很大一部分，这种损失非常真实。Simon Willison 通过 lobste.rs 转载并推荐了这篇文章。
Jeremy Scheff poignantly captures the key loss caused by coding agents for career programmers who enjoyed the puzzle of developing code:
Programming turned into one of the greatest jobs you could imagine. You got paid to work on tricky little logic puzzles. The trickier the puzzle, the more you got paid. But even pretty simple puzzles were worth a lot of money because regular people just couldn't do it! No, they needed us. They would give us a problem and we would solve it the way we wanted. We set the strategy, we made the timeline, we defined what was and was not possible.
If you're a programmer who thrives on building working systems and doesn't care too deeply about the problems solved along the way, LLMs are the gift that keeps on giving.
If directly solving those problems was a big part of your enjoyment, the loss is very real.
