I'm trying to determine what programming tasks are not in this list. :) I think it is trying to exclude adding new features and fixing bugs in existing code. I've done enough of that with LLMs, though not in large codebases.

I should say I'm hardly ever vibe-coding, unlike the original article. If I think I want code that will last, I'll steer the models in ways that lean on years of non-LLM experience. E.g., I'll reject results that might work if they violate my taste in code.

It also helps that I can read code very fast. I estimate I can read code 100x faster than most students. I'm not sure there is any way to teach that other than the old-fashioned way, which involves reading (and writing) a lot of code.
