I got a max account during this promotion and it's been very fun but I'm a little burned out and am kind of looking forward to going back and tinkering with game engines without the help of an LLM for code gen (will still use it for documentation questions but I can do that with the free tier)
For fun/side stuff, handwritten code makes total sense, if you’re burnt out.
For anything that makes money, it feels like a huge step down in productivity, even with the downsides of agent-assisted code.
