Claude writes better code than most humans and a lot faster

No matter how mad this makes people, its still true.

What makes the code actually useful in most cases however, is enough understanding of the program to modify as its needed. That's where LLMs fall flat. Even when the code works, its terrible at adjusting the code to fit a specific use case. Dont even get met started on usable documentation or maintenance.
