Well why don't you look at it for yourself and tell me if this looks like a beginner project https://youtu.be/EyE5BrUut2o


Yes, this does look like a beginner project & exactly what i expected from someone who doesn't write code.


This is extremely simple software.

Claude is extremely verbose when it generates code, but this is something that should take a practicing software engineer an hour or so to write with a lot less code than Claude.

I like all the LLM coding tools, they're constantly getting better, but I remain convinced that all the people claiming massive productivity improvements are just not good software engineers.

I think the tools are finally at the point where they are generally a help, rather than a net waste of time for good engineers, but it's still marginal atm.
