Enough to build an appropriate mental model for a brain set up to tackle problems this way.

General question. How do y’all define this?

Working on platforms of sufficient scale, there’s a lot happening that’s out of your control. You can build the mental model around it, but it will contain a lot of black boxes where an abstraction hides details.

Generated code changes this, probably, but I’m curious by what degree.
