one takeaway i’m getting used to is there’s absolutely no reason to settle for the first thing it writes on the contrary, the refactors are much easier now as long as you can express where you want it to go. so you can keep nitpicking on pretty major aspects of the code structure and layering

it can do execution very well but it’s not very good at “good engineering” yet. it’s missing good taste and good habits, no intuition for when to dig deeper or when to change paths. probably can be improved but i have to be continuously correcting where it’s going when terrain is nontrivial

the minimal repro was extracted by Claude (yay! that's actually really cool) but i had to convince it many times to be methodical before it managed to do the extraction. it's getting better at this but still not great
