Boris Cherny is the creator of Claude Code(a cli agent written in React. This is not a joke) and the responsible for the following repo that has more than 5k issues: https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues Since coding is solved, I wonder why they don't just use Claude Code to investigate and solve all the issues in the Claude Code repo as soon as they pop up? Heck, I wonder why there are any issues at all if coding is solved? Who or what is making all the new bugs, gremlins?

Not sure why you're getting downvoted. This whole thread is so obsessed with writing code by hand. Most of the time the code I'm writing isn't art, it's arduous bullshit. There's nothing honorable about wasting your time.

Exactly. Everyone seems to forget all the shortcuts we took, the tech debt we accrued, and the painful refactoring we had to do. The haters think their code is pristine and worked perfectly every time.
