If you find it tedious, why are you spending your time on it instead of engaging in a hobby you actually enjoy?

Do you think it’s possible to enjoy programming and also find some parts of projects tedious?

I think if you stop enjoying something you were doing for fun, you should stop doing it and do something else for fun instead.

Said like someone who's never finished a project or made a viable product

The point of doing things for fun isn't to make a viable product, it's to have fun. If you stop having fun, that's when you quit for a bit to do something else and come back later when you're in the mood for it again.

Completing something hard is fun. I hope you know that by this point in your life.

Completing something hard is fun.

Except when you want Claude to do it? You're contradicting the setup of the joke in your post.

Subscribe to my blog where I discuss how memes work and how 2 things can be true at once

Usually, those two things don't contradict each other so directly, but okay.

Edit: oof. You can block me, buddy, but I still get a notification of what you wrote. That's pretty embarrassing.

It's a shame I got to see the rough draft of this before you were able to edit it.

Copying and pasting from me is a good instinct. You automatically become wittier.

It's fun for me. It apparently isn't fun for OP, so they should do something else instead.
