<p>i'm using LLMs/GenAI to do one thing: write unit tests.<p>since i really don't follow the idea of "writing unit tests first", i implement the feature, test as a user, and then use LLMLs to write the basic unit test. then, i will write more tests to make sure i'm covering everything.<p>feels like an ok-ish compromise because LLMs can do some ok job with defensive code, while i maintain the main implementation and more advanced test scenarios.</p>

<p>honestly, one day i will understand why these guys go so hard on planning vacations.<p>one of the best parts of vacations is actually planning it! trying to find restaurants, organizing your days, trying to fit activities -- that makes you look forward to your time off.<p>really, i want to automate the boring parts of my life (did i really pay rent this month?) not the things that make me happy.</p>
