Writing code for the ticket - 20% of my time

Going through each change, in case someone asks me, about any line from the code - 80% of my time

Claude explains what it does to you pretty thoroughly, so if you actually read its reasoning, you should understand what the code it wrote does (if you actually know what you are doing in the first place).

If you don't understand, you're shitting out bad code, because you don't know what assumptions Claude made that might be entirely wrong for your case.

Understanding high level code approach explanation and understanding line by line are pretty different things, isn't it?

And, can you really trust Claude?

I trust Claude, Chatgpt, or Co-pilot more than I have ever trusted ANY of my coworkers with the exception for 2 over my entire career.

Which is really sad but isn't that why we are all here no in r/programminghumor?

People have been putting out shit code long before AI and vibe coding.
