I actually had a perfect use case for slopcoding - I needed to scrape a search result and turn it into a csv and a bunch of files.

Totally possible with a hour or so or coding but annoying and not that fun. Completely trivial, tons of stuff like it, piece of cake

Claude got something that looked like it was worked, and didn't. I figured out why, told it what to fix, and it didn't.

Finally after several rounds, it kicked off...and then hung on...something? idk what, it doesn't look like it was rate limited

Also it said the code would check to see it had already downloaded the file and if so, skip it. It definitely did not do that lol

At this point it was 90 minutes--an hour of yelling at the computer and another 30 minutes of my ADHD ass forgetting that I had it running

I like it as fancy autocomplete because it's usually helpful and I can silence it for 20 minutes if it's annoying me, but man.
