I am basically a script kiddie and Anthropic Claude helped me design a small app for myself that was way beyond my own capabilities and it even went as far as documenting in comments what each bit of the program did for me, to help me understand the logic.

This is the good shit, right here!

AI does shit tier work, but it provides access to new skills.

If you learned anything from the experience, you're a programmer, now.

Welcome to the crew.

Don't be afraid to toss out the training wheels (AI) when it gets in your way, and try to enjoy the ride.
