Yeah he phrases it odd. Like with the "almost certainly" and "overall" qualifiers. Not "he is a better programmer than I would dream to be..."

It is the GPT2 of espresso. Looks bad but idea is sound. There will be a GPT5.5 later on.

Awesome idea. I would love to try it. If that can also make my espresso routine easier I am up for it.

These days it would be better in reverse i.e. expose the docs as docs and human points their Claude at that. In starting to do that!

Is it quacking like employment? Sort of and sort of not.

Not: very flexible hours, not exclusive, driver can switch customer? driver provides tools

Is: driver cannot subcontract, has to follow set rules (maybe that makes is franchise like?)

Of course they took something that was employment and made it not employment at scale.
