Assembling code doesn't require typing. Linking doesn't require typing.

Even though once upon a time both did.

Claiming that this isn't coding is as absurd as saying that coding is only what you do when you hook up the wires between some vacuum tubes.

The LLM is a very smart compiler. That's all.

Some people want to sit and write assembly. Good for them. But asserting that unless I assemble my own code I'm not a coder is just silly.
