Wow, the lack of self-awareness on the part of the writer of this is stunning. To say "I don't go out of my way to dunk on people who use LLMs", and then write a multipage blog post doing exactly that is fascinating.

You do you, and I'll do me. Perhaps spend more time coding which you say you like to do and less time sneering at people who use different tools.

You've read that paragraph backwards. They are talking about LLM enthusiasts dunking on people who aren't using.

The author mocks LLM enthusiasts, because they "dunk" on him. While writing an blog post that "dunks" on LLM enthusiasts. Total lack of awareness. If they had taken the time to read their blog before posting it, they might have avoided embarrassment.

So just misquoting the author intentionally then?

You should pick some of the substance of the article to take issue with instead of jumping to be a victim. They clearly read it if they wrote it.

Here you go, a direct quote:

I know there are people who oppose, say, syntax coloring, and I think that’s pretty weird, but I don’t go out of my way to dunk on them.

Did you even read the blog post? The entire blog is dunking on people who use the tools.
