the temptation of using claude code is probably higher than it looks like for a single dev, I think. Hey, in the end one can just have this in their IDE and essentially have your own unpaid intern. It's a fairly new situation.
Your own unpaid intern, who is paid by someone else, employed by someone else, and who has access to all your repos secrets and business logic.
Yeah, nah. I think id rather not train my competitors.
Use local models then.
Are you hosting your code in any way accesible from the internet? Gitlab, gitea, forgrjo?
Github. We use azure too. I trust Microsoft a hell of a lot more than these AI clowns.
I have bad news for you...
I know I know. To give up so easily is just fatalism though. You have to at least try where you can.
If i exclude the offline software I use, from xed to libreoffice and the likes, I own very little of the services in my hand.
Yup, single dev here, can confirm. I'm coding for a living but am mediocre at it since I jumped from civil engineering to something I kind of enjoy. To me coding assistants are a huge help. Finding solutions, discussing ideas, writing down implementation plans, can't do all that stuff with my colleagues since they have no clue about my work.
So your not that food and using AI to make your products better so you can sell your coding abilities. Or your better then you think you are.
if you're interested i used AI to learn a library to make my link-scraping script and return me only the open access pdf from Google scholar. yeah. it is virtually useless because i need to check all the same. But boy did it make me feel smart.
the hardest part is coming up with ideas when it's not a job and just an interest, than finding a path to the realisation of these ideas.
The idea is the easy part I need something to do X.
