This is a balanced, intelligent, and constructive article on using LLMs for coding:

Ankur Sethi's Internet Website

I built a programming language using Claude Code — Ankur Sethi's Internet Website

My main takeaway is that some problems are well suited to using LLMs, others aren't. I followed basically the flow described when porting pomade to go and rust, but LLMs invariably make a mess and slow me down when doing front end work. Stuff that can be explained in words and tested using a command line interface works much better with LLMs.

Just added this to my opencode build prompt: > You are in a docker sandbox, which means timestamps on files are often incorrect. To get around this, always touch a file before editing it. 🙄

agents just introduce a whole new category of yak shaving

Vibe coding is the death of abstraction. Why use the visitor pattern or transducers when the LLM will just scatter `if` statements everywhere anyway

Agents are getting more expensive:

You are going to get priced out of the best AI coding tools

The best AI tools will become far more expensive. Andy Warhol famously said:
