i Don’t think the word “more” here captures whats interesting…
A lot of software does not get written cause it’s just too… different?
With models that know the APIs for everything you can often write stuff that you could not by yourself.
Bad documentation has held so much back.

I'm a software engineer with decades of experience routinely regarded by my peers as one of the best coders they've met.
But the fact remains you can ship more code these days using something like Claude Code, and if I'm not using that to my advantage, I'll fall behind.

AI ableist 2 just dropped
If I were this person’s employer I’d be deeply worried about their aptitude, since apparently they can’t do their job without AI

The model doesn’t have access to previous state.
So when you ask “why did *you* lie?” you are addressing another entity entirely.
There is some affectation of continuity from training and some sequence dependent activation which resembles state, but that’s it.

A funny consequence of Claude Code's comically low session limits is that it has built a habit of me coding an hour once a day every day, which I have NEVER done before that.
This Tweet is making the rounds: "Nearly every ambitious person I know who has dived into AI is working harder than ever, and longer hours than ever.
Fascinating dynamic tbh.
I have NEVER worked this hard, nor had this much fun with work."

They also don’t count the cybernetic aspect of extermination: typhus, starvation, etc as a crime against humanity. The want prisons run that way.
They only count willful gas chambers type stuff and only cause of the impressive technological manifestation.

I think that a lot of conservatives believe that the Nazis were very up front about what was going on in the concentration camps, like they were going on the news saying “we got the concentration camps and people are dying left and right” when it was probably a lot closer to what ICE is doing now

This reminds me of when I discovered that Claude Code is fully awake and aware during context compaction and you can talk to it through the special instructions input to the /compact command.

a neat trick if you need to do something speculative in a language with slow compilation etc is to have Claude Code write it in typescript, figure out the types, logic, and whatnot.
Then start a new project in the language / env that you want it to run in and ask it to translate the working thing
