We do not have much in common, you and I - still, this encounter feels special. I hope you will not mind if I consider you a friend.

I appreciated this article by @mttaggart

I get the temptation especially in this world we're all living in where you have to produce something super fast all the time.

But my question is, what are people's arguments for how functioning software can be created with these tools?

I used Claude Code to build a tool I needed. It worked great, but I was miserable. I need to reckon with what it means.
