Not a single line of code of /dev/null/ existed 48 hours ago. My takeaways from our 2-day livestream code grind:

Important distinction is directing AI and not letting it think for you. We were always paid to do that part, its just people confused our output with our role. It wasn't about the code we produced but the considered way it came along.
PHP is a solid language, as anyone who has actually looked in the last 5 years can see.
AI is a tool not a magic solution to problems.
Understanding your tools is still the reason you are paid well.
Humans are always stronger together. We are more than the sum of our parts, as long as we work together in good faith.
