What is novel code?

  1. LLM's would suck at coming up with new algorithms. 
  2. I wouldn't let an LLM decide how to structure my code. Interfaces, module boundaries etc

Other than that, given the right context (the sdk doc for a unique hardware for eg) and a well organised codebase explained using CLAUDE.Md they work pretty well in filling out implementations. Just need to resist the temptation to prompt while the actual typing would take seconds.

Bad analogy. It's more akin to installing postgres and rails for backend development, which is not an unfair ask.

They can write plain HTML and some barebone css, and thats ok. That'll be similar to asking a backend dev to ftp some php file to a shared host.

assuming you like your line of work, here are few things that have worked for me

1) hand off your current tasks to someone else and take theirs 2) help out with other things (depends on your employer). if you are a programmer try helping QA, write documentation, help marketing, etc. 3) try breaking up work into very small chunks. Do a chunk and reward yourself

Not all the time. Overthinking is a thing, there is a reason why taking walks or showering helps solve problems when fully focused cognitive attention was leading only to frustration.

All that said, I think it is a good thing to not make anything that affects(increase or decrease) cognitive performance a habit.

Wordpress had some say in this i think.

Unfortunately, there is a drop in empathy and trust (to varying degrees) when interacting with those who one hasn't met in person. Being in office, talking to your teammates face-to-face is super valuable when the team members are new to each other. Once the rapport is established, let each person do what works the best for them.

There is also the $99/year subscription to apple developer program

But the snowflake doesn't know that it is falling on a mountain slope.

Looks great. And such beautiful URL structure. Will be my goto example to illustrate how to represent resources in the web.
