In my opinion (which means nothing). If you are using your own hardware and not profiting directly from Claude’s use (as in building a service powered by your subscription). I don’t see how this is a problem. I am by no means blowing through my usage (usually <50% weekly with max x5).

Of course there are times when you need someone extremely skilled at a particular language. But from my experience I would MUCH prefer to see how someone builds out a problem in natural language and have guarantees to its success. I’ve been in too many interviews where candidates trip over syntax, pick the wrong language, or are just not good at memorization and don’t want to look dumb looking things up. I usually prefer paired programming interviews where I cater my assistance to expectations of the position. AI can essentially do that for us.

I can one handed spec out changes, AI does its thing, and then I review and refine it whenever my kid is asleep for 20 minutes. Or if I’m super tired I’m able to explain changes with horrible english and get results. At the same time, I am following a source control and code review process that I’ve used in large teams. I’ve even been leaving comments on PRs where AI contributes and I’m the only dev in the codebase.

I wouldn’t call this vibe coding— however vibe coding could be a subset of this type of work. I think async coding is a good description, but bad because of what it means as a software concept (which is mentioned). Maybe AI-delegation?

This was one of the top jobs listed. Of course I have no idea if they are hiring people or not, but it’s at least listed.

In terms of hiring- I co-own a small consultancy. I just hired a sub to help me while on parental leave with some UI work. AI isn’t going to help my team integrate, deploy, or make informed decision while I’m out.

Side note, with a newborn (sleeping on me at this moment), I can make real meaningful edits to my codebase pretty much on my phone. Then review, test, integrate when I have the time. It’s amazing, but I still feel you have to know what you are doing, and I am selective on what tasks, and how to split them up. I also throw away a lot of generated code, same as I throw away a lot of my first iterations, it’s all part of the process.

I think saying “AI is going X% of my work” is the wrong attitude. I’m still doing work when I use AI, it’s just different. That statement kind of assumes you are blindly shipping robot code, which sounds horrible and zero fun.

It is clearly a step forward from what you can watch about theanine on YouTube or TikTok. I consider this a work of citizen science. While it should not be taken for more than it is, it’s a great example of how someone can experiment without a high burden.

I have lost many hours here, and have shared with many

I’m not worthy.

A lunar eclipse occurs during a full moon and the Earth, Moon and Sun are aligned. causing the Earth to cast a shadow on the Moon. This doesn’t happen every Moon rotation because the Moon’s orbit is slightly off.
