I ran a test where I added a "light" mode to xscreensaver: unique changes to over 270 different C programs.

It mostly did an amazing job in a short period of time.

EDIT: Of course I get downvoted for saying this. HN isn't interested in reality any more.

I suspect that rather many of us are simply just tired of Claude and friends getting shoehorned into any conversation about programming at this point. It is about as fun as the Rust Brigade entering any discussion about C. It adds nothing new to the discussion and it is frankly tiring since we pretty much at any time have a handful of conversations on the front page already covering "AI" topics anyway (counting four at the time of writing this).
