Pure poetry. Thanks man.

I knew this rationally but it just hit me how easy it would have been for early eastern civilizations to craft chopsticks rather than forks.
I agree.
I think his take is really healthy. If you use Claude as something to make toilsome work easier then you can stay productive and get over the procrastination hump. He also talks about the velocity part where you can go fix/explore things that you wouldn't have time to normally.
It's also not like he's some know nothing vibe coder. He's got a long coding career. Claude is basically a really clever but amnesiac junior dev.
I had been feeling like I peaked in my career and just was too tired/depressed to work on homelab/coding personal projects. Now with Claude, work is a lot less draining and I've got energy leftover for stuff in the evenings. His experience resonates with mine.
What bothers me a lot is that before using Claude, I was just a AI skeptic/hater. Now that I use it regularly I see all the warts but the good colossally outweighs the bad. Vibe coding is still a menace because people who don't know better are inundating open source projects with low effort slop. So near daily I feel like I keep getting challenged by the remaining skeptical coworkers with this AI purity test where I have to keep explaining the same shit. "Yes I vet every line of code before making a PR. Yes I understand the APIs/Documentation from the source material. Yes I have been extremely vigilant against slop." It's exhausting.
So I very much sympathize with that sensationalized quote "Good luck telling the difference between Claude commits and mine" because at the end of the day I stake my professional integrity on every thing I produce regardless of whether I wrote the code by hand or dictated to Claude.
I do leave the "coauthored by Claude" in my commits because I still think it would be disingenuous to do otherwise. But damn if it isn't tempting to remove it.
Plasma is awesome!
This is the first Dad joke I ever found genuinely clever. Good work!
This would be so pleasant. I know you can use mods without it but this would be better.
Yes!
These people are fucking slime balls. The mental gymnastics required to justify genocide are insane.
Two of my coworkers with kubernetes homelabs use the Helm Chart deployment of this and they like it very much. All my domains are in Cloudflare so this is a no brainer.
I would like to try this with their SSO offering so that I could just handle auth at the tunnel instead of something like Dex in front of each service in the cluster.
I just happened to notice this message. I'll take a look. We're definitely talking through leaps in time.
