Meh, sort of. Just because LLMs let you output reams of code, doesn’t mean you should use them to do that. As always, you should make the smallest diff that would accomplish your goal. Working this way, LLMs don’t really accelerate my workflow much except for work that’s truly boilerplate and for refactoring. But for the sort of small-ish changes that iterate towards product-market fit, I find I have to spend more time trying to get Claude to do what I want than just writing the code I need by hand.

Just today it gave me a bunch of deprecated MongoDB calls and completely botched some async Python code. But it's definitely gonna be writing all the code soon. Just six more months...

I’ve certainly found my bogus “5 hour limit” on the pro plan used up multiple times arguing with Claude about the simplest of concepts. So much in fact that I feel it’s by design to push users towards the Max plans… even if not true the fact that I think it at all is a loss for them.

		We already know software companies are intentionally making their products shittier to drive profits. Google making their search worse to increase the number of times people have to search (so they see more ads) is a good example. There is absolutely no reason to not think AI companies aren't doing the same. Dial in the accuracy so that each tier is only so useful, constantly and subtlety encouraging you to pay a little more for just a few more queries because "the next prompt will make it work, I'm sure this time!"
