This weekend I successfully used Claude to add three features in a Rust utility I had wanted for a couple years. I had opened issue requests, but no else volunteered. I had tried learning Rust, Wayland and GTK to do it myself, but the docs at the time weren’t great and the learning curve was steep. But Claude figured it all out pretty quick.

I'm pretty sure that is how we got CORBA

now just make it construct UML models and then abandon this and move onto version 2

Try to get one of these LLMs to update a package.json.

Honest question: I haven't used AI much. Are there any AIs or IDEs that can reliably rename a variable across all instances in a medium sized Python project? I don't mean easy stuff that an editor can do (e.g. rename QQQ in all instances and get lucky that there are no conflicts). I mean be able to differentiate between local and/or library variables so it doesn't change them, only the correct versions.

cant wait to see "we use AI agents to generate well structured non-functioning code" with off centered everything and non working embeds on the website
