On: A few random notes from Claude coding quite a bit last few weeks

Thank you for the really excellent summation. I echo your thought 1 to 1. I have found it more difficult to learn new languages or coding skills, because I am no longer forced to go through the painful slow grind of learning.

Painful slow grind? I have always found the learning part what I enjoy most about programming. I don't intend to outsource that a chatbot.

Does one ever still need to learn new languages or coding skills if an AI will be able to do it?

[dag11 → ed_mercer]

This question makes me unbelievably sad. Why should anyone learn anything?

I'm not disagreeing.

[FeteCommuniste → ed_mercer]

Probably not. But as someone who has learned a few languages, having to outsource a conversation to a machine will never not feel incredibly lame.

I doubt most people feel the same, though.
