- j'utilise Claude tous les jours
- je me crois assez bon là-dedans
- je regarde deux ingénieurs Anthropic pendant 2 HEURES
- l'ingénieur de Claude explique les Skills from scratch
- les 5 premières minutes
- attends. Les Skills c'est juste des dossiers ?
- des dossiers qui retiennent ton workflow ?
- ton domaine ? ton expertise ?
- pause. retour arrière. je regarde a nouveau
- je pense à chaque prompt que j'ai réécrit de zéro
- chaque contexte que j'ai expliqué 100 fois
- chaque session qui a tout oublié
- ça n'aurait pas dû se passer comme ça
- 16 minutes. tout change
- skill issue détecté
@istoothin@Tendar They tried back in 2022 but there was like a single road leading to Kyiv and it got zero'ed in by artillery leading to a trail of destruction, the rest is relatively empty and full of trees
I've never felt this much behind as a programmer. The profession is being dramatically refactored as the bits contributed by the programmer are increasingly sparse and between. I have a sense that I could be 10X more powerful if I just properly string together what has become available over the last ~year and a failure to claim the boost feels decidedly like skill issue. There's a new programmable layer of abstraction to master (in addition to the usual layers below) involving agents, subagents, their prompts, contexts, memory, modes, permissions, tools, plugins, skills, hooks, MCP, LSP, slash commands, workflows, IDE integrations, and a need to build an all-encompassing mental model for strengths and pitfalls of fundamentally stochastic, fallible, unintelligible and changing entities suddenly intermingled with what used to be good old fashioned engineering. Clearly some powerful alien tool was handed around except it comes with no manual and everyone has to figure out how to hold it and operate it, while the resulting magnitude 9 earthquake is rocking the profession. Roll up your sleeves to not fall behind.
@GarrettPetersen@DeepDishEnjoyer Can confirm. Before kids: “is this all life is, work and sleep?”
After kids: “please god let this all be life is, I need more sleep”
