Coding may be fun at times, but in the end, its hard and complex work.
We agree that high quality code requires a lot of brain work. LLMs can help through these cycles of exhaustion, but imo i often overextend my capacities and I'll have to rewrite it, because my exhausted brain also struggles to ensure code output quality from an LLM.
This is also the reason I stopped using LLMs entirely for coding.
I rather step back for a few days when I feel exhausted. There's no easy escape from burnout.
I feel midly bad for not really delivering something in a week or so, but I also feel the need to take care about myself.
As long as management is happy with my work, I'm not going to work harder for any reason.
I know this may have gone slightly off track, but I just wanted to say: Take care about yourself if everything else is too much :)
