No feedback on the design doc, except to say it's a good template and very helpful for someone who hasn't worked in a world where design docs have been critical. But can I say we use tinybeans and have a similar complaint (and others), and we would happily jump ship if there was an alternative like that laid out in your example.

One struggle I've had when working with worktrees is not a problem with the worktrees themselves but instead how my Intellij manages project configurations. I can't for the life of me get it set up so my configuration can sit relative to multiple worktrees. There's probably a plugin which solves the issue, but at least in my experience the .idea config folder is rooted in its current directory and very difficult to migrate to another folder or worktree. I end up having to re-establish project linting rules, run configurations, what have you, for each new worktree and it becomes too much of a hassle for anything short-lived.

Looks like the author has a similarly-named sound-garden which is linked to at the top level.

The way you have portrayed it makes it sound like your clients should be paying Claude rather than you for the work, maybe you could take some kind of broker fee. But is your AI assistant being down really as crippling as you make it sound? But I understand your frustration, $200 is a lot of money.

I do find it interesting to see how people interact with AI as I think it is quite a personal preference. Is this how you use AI all the time? Do you appreciate the sycophancy, does it bother you, do you not notice it? From your question it seems you would prefer a blog post in plainer language, avoiding "marketing speak", but if a person spoke to me like Miss Chatty spoke to you I would be convinced I'm talking to a salesperson or marketing agent.

A bold claim

Do you go around harassing everyone who uses 'he' when it could possibly be a man or a woman they're referring to?

It feels important to me, from the perspective of someone who doesn't want to be negatively surprised by auto-generated code. I'd expect there to be a significant difference in uncaught errors in Copilot code between people who believe Copilot knows what they want vs people who think copilot just does what it's been trained to do, mainly based on the level of scepticism people approach reviewing the code with.

I couldn't get it to pass on my phone, but "scram"/"get out of here" is equivalent to a password rejected/401 response. A single knock does not match the expected pattern, so you would expect it to be rejected.

An ASCII enema sounds very uncomfortable.

Based on their "crazy guy in first car" example, I expect there'll be more than the occasional example of racism, ableism, etc.
