@aral From “Think outside the box!” to “The box will now handle all the thinking for you. Please insert a coin into the box.”

The PrimeTime: I Think They Are Lying To You (YouTube video) is... well... nothing you don't already know, and it's video form, but it showed up in a Slack channel this morning, and it's about Boris Cherny of Anthropic bragging about how he doesn't even prompt Claude any more, he just... something... and code comes out, contrasting that with how long it's taking Anthropic to release fixes to obvious and horrible Claude Code usability issues. So maybe coding is a solved problem, but debugging isn't?

The Primeagen is incredibly popular tech streamer on twitch and makes some videos for the youtubes. Half his routine is being a brogrammer, but he does have serious technical chops (vs say someone like Pirate Software) and I generally like his takes on things. Even in the brogrammer persona, there's maturity about tech and its applications.
