Yes exactly. LLM-assisted coding is just the next layer of abstraction. This has been happening to computer programming for decades. We've always been in search of a way to program in "natural language"

Here I was thinking Google had given up on frontier models...

Apple App Store build upload processing is also out at the same time...hmmm....I wonder if Apple is using Claude for build upload processing.

Pastor used to say: "You become what you behold." too true.

How can we collectively fix apps/websites that are so poorly built that they take 10 minutes and 100 taps on your smartphone just to do something that could have been done in a minute? Companies put out an app/website as the only way to interface with them, you just have to deal with it.

The Bitwarden chrome extension just randomly stopped working for me the other day. This is after years of working flawlessly. I had to remove the extension and add it back to get it working...What a shame. Hosting a password manager isn't a game; these are people's real lives and businesses at stake.

I've been with eBay since 2006 and have been consistently disappointed with their consistent failure to innovate. They need some inspired leadership.
