    I actually accidentally did this at school way back when. My mate and I decided to have an “Excel” race, where we’d start at the top of the sheet and see who could reach the bottom first by holding down either down arrow or pg down (this is obviously fun when you’re 15).

    Anyway, I reach the bottom, many laughs are had, go back the top, continue with whatever bullshit assignment we’d been given and then sent it off to the printer. Went onto some top down mini golf flash game and pissed about on there for a bit, until the teacher stands next to me and slams down a massive pile of paper onto my desk. She didn’t look impressed.

    Turns out I must have put a space or some random character at the bottom by accident and printed it. However the biggest issue was that I’d put my name in the header for the sheet, so every single page had my name in the top corner.


  • It is really not a big change to the way we work unless you work in a language that has very low expressiveness like Java or Go

    If we include languages like C#, javascript/typescript, python etc then that’s a huge portion of the landscape.

    Personally I wouldn’t use it to generate entire features as it will generally produce working, but garbage code, but it’s useful to get boilerplate stuff done or query why something isn’t working as expected. For example, asking it to write tests for a React component, it’ll get about 80-90% of it right, with all the imports, mocks etc, you just need to write the actual assertions yourself (which we should be doing anyway).

    I gave Claude a try last week at building some AWS infrastructure in Terraform based off a prompt for a feature set and it was pretty bang on. Obviously it required some tweaks but it saved a tonne of time vs writing it all out manually.
