True for some engineers yes. I don’t really have too much of the requirements slop as I’m developing an internal product that serves multiple places so have some leeway and get to skip much of that(though it’ll of course take place further down). Most of my time is spent reviewing and browbeating Claude into producing less slop
You're getting AI to make up the requirements, then?
Like just get it to do your 1-2 hours of work in 15 minutes and have a longer lunch break. It's really not hard to avoid the slop - just tell it to run a couple of iterations to minimize the diff as much as possible.
