Translating a code base between languages has always been a super easy, quick, fun experience for me. It's like a simple exercise with clear right & wrong answers, a nice break from most coding tasks. Whenever I've done it I've felt like, "oh god, here goes the next week", and then it's done in a couple of hours max and nothing was stressful, and I feel great.

Sorry, machines can't have that job. I do it better anyway.
