I just want a Claude Code that is much more lightweight. Way smaller system prompts, way less bloat in general. It could probably be 3x faster and more effective if it wasn't overly bloated. This is really frustrating. Perhaps I should roll my own

Rest is not a reward. Rest is a necessity. You don't have to earn it. It has no moral value. You *need* to rest.

Four years ago, I graduated from a coding bootcamp after quitting my career. Since then, I’ve gone from junior to senior to lead engineer and I make three times what I was making as a seasoned coffee buyer. I’m a queer/biracial/anxiety/trash-girl and I did it, and so can you.

I’ve been a professional sysadmin for over a decade and I can say with great confidence that these people saying “running your own infrastructure is easy” are either idiots or liars.

You know I have a weird definition of laziness when I spend many hours reading through source code of packages I find on npm but will only buy slip-on sneakers because I can't be bothered to tie laces.

Some of the most effective senior engineers are the ones who help others by teaching how they think about problems. At some point, your biggest contribution becomes explaining your mental model.
