This, however, makes me feel better and gives hope.
Instead of “Claude, write this app” I probably need to do “Claude, write this function”. Then, any damage will always be limited to particular functions.
I've been coding for 26 years. if I could distill my experience into one sentence it would be:
"functions and data is all you need"
don't get distracted by fancy language features. every language has functions, every language has structs. mastering programming is just composing functions and transforming data. once you master this you can program in any language.
if you focus building programs as small, pure, modular functions that operate on *only* the data it needs, then you will have a large set of functions that are highly composable. you will never have to do large rewrites of your program, because your program will compose of lego blocks that you can snap together in different ways.
gm nostr!
