I felt the familiar feeling of depression and lethargy creep in while my eyes darted from watching claude-code work and my phone. “What’s the point of it all?” I thought, LLMs can generate decent-ish and correct-ish looking code while I have more time to do what? doomscroll? This was the third time I gave claude-code a try. I felt the same feelings every single time and ended up deleting claude-code after 2-3 weeks, and whaddyouknow?
@W3dd1e @codeinabox For what it’s worth, a lot of pretty famous programmers did/do write code by hand. They often have an assistant of some kind do the actual typing after it’s done. It can be an interesting experience.
