Try changing something old in claude code (or codex etc) using a programming language you have used before. Your opinion might change drastically.



I have! Claude is great at taking a large open source project and adding some idiosyncratic feature I need.


this is literally how i maintain the code at my current position, if i didn't have copilot+ i would be cooked


Same here. Coworker left. I now maintain a bunch of Go code and I had never written any before.

I use copilot in agent mode.


...what were you doing before?

That's bread and butter development work.


didnt have to maintain any code before thankfully
