> And it was a deep lesson that now feels too obvious: terms are simply created for understanding. That is what matters at the end of the day. This isn’t just about programming; sadly, we often go through fierce battles over a concept or a problem while not realizing that each of us has a different definition for it.
Yeah, I think it’s interesting to think about programming in this way. At the end of the day, JavaScript is just a bunch of words someone invented and made a computer do something with, and you can also invent your own words to whatever you want too

Look into what happened with machinists. "Feel" for the machine, and intuition for the craft was replaced by gcode. The work product, instead of the knowledge requisite to realize a work, became the container of value. With enough samples, a new approach is born in which understanding of the basics never has to crystalize. One merely hunts and pecks, grabbing errant bits of previous things hewn through understanding, and composing them into something close enough.
This is what lay ahead in the age of AI. The problem though, comes in the first time that system goes fully offline and people with sufficient skill to bring it back online no longer exist, or worse, are prevented from doing so for one group or another to maintain capability asymmetry.
The years ahead are certainly going to be something to adjust to, yet individually, I question whether that act of adjusting is a good thing.
