extending an enormous "bruh" to the people who are making a spreadsheet of all the mainstream programming languages and tools that you "shouldn't use" because they have some tests written by Claude that probably wouldn't have been written without it (ie. it increases correctness). cmon man.

yes there are people writing slop but almost all people who give a shit and work on production systems don't (and are probably busy getting their day ruined by jackasses wielding chatbots even if they do use them themselves).

leftists gobble up purity politics better than devout Catholics.

@leftpaddotpy even some of the smallest models (that I can run on my own computer!) are extremely good refactor engines in comparison to like... AST manipulation or a bunch of futzing with regexes

@traumaphoenix i have been caught doing `some-linter | claude --model haiku 'fix these lints plz'`

of course i would rather the linter be able to fix them but i am overcommitted on tooling fixing in general as it is
