I work by myself an feel great joy. Today I talked to the AI about a feature I want to add to this week's project (https://www.writelucid.cc) and it had some good feedback. Later I refactored a big part of the code to simplify it (though I had to explain to Claude why this was possible), and it came out great.

I've never been happier, I can now build everything I've been wanting to build, really fast, with very few bugs.

I work for myself and I absolutely love AI.

I'm able to get 3x the work done. Greenfield stuff appears almost immediately.

My job is providing value to customers, not worshipping at the cathedral of software that will last forever. Nothing lasts forever.

Start treating software as ephemeral. It'll click.

This doesn't mean write low quality, unmaintainable software. It just means focus on getting stuff to your customer.

Writing in super typesafe languages with the highest level of strictness helps a lot. My AI stack is Rust and Typescript.
