i have now spent about 3 weeks slop codding spread over the last month or so. i will be using exactly 0 of the code that it produced because even when it wasn't wrong, the amount of effort required to get there was more than just fucking writing the code.

don't get me wrong, i remain genuinely impressed with they have managed to get the technology to do, given how it's inherent never got a hope of actually being anything more than a party trick. but it's still clearly hurrendously flawed. i mean the latest claude can't even not delete files when asked not to delete files ffs. the hell i'm trusting something that can't even do that.

i do not think there is anything useful more to learn about slop codding for me. the times i have actually been writing code were more enjoyable than the times i was prompting the machine, despite the dopamine hits. EVEN THE TEDIOUS CODE.

in short, they're shit, they've always been shit and i'm not convinced they will ever not be shit. and now i'm going back to writing code thank you
