I don't know which companies you work for. Where is the code a masterpiece? In all my work, I have yet to see this elegant code. Before AI, we had to deal with human slop. Byzantine, spaghetti messes. I haven't been lucky. I once worked with code that made me want to pull my hair out. I look at LLM-generated code, and it's mostly better than any code I have worked on. But maybe it's just me.

Only once?

Oh god, we're gonna do the four Yorkshiremen, aren't we?
