LSS: I just wanna beable to slap together dirt simple datapipelines and iterate over them with new work. Currently I need it for like 3 things: a super special project I’m not ready to share yet, transcribing video chats, and generally webscraping (wget and curl are so reliable and comfy).

Claude fucked up pretty much everywhere that was important. To me programming is the practice of communicating your perfect and (ideally) edgecase-free understanding of how to solve a problem. I didn’t know how to build a CI/snakemake styled datapipeline so I asked AI to help. As far as I understand, the task was too abstract, it had no idea what I wanted bc I had little idea of what I wanted. AI cannot replace a programmer when brand new abstractions need to be invented!!

I am happy to finally have this tool and cannot wait to implement it in my daily workflows.
