I’m not sure. I keep asking the LLMs whether I should rewrite project X in language Y and it just asks back, “what’s your problem?” And most of the times it shoots my problems down showing exactly why rewriting won’t fix that particular problem. Heck, it even quoted Joel Spolsky once!

Of course, I could just _tell_ it to rewrite, but that’s different.



Damn, I'm sure even I'd have caved at some point. Did you get to VHDL? Your project etched in pure silicon? Yes! Must!

Oh no, my job is safe no longer!
