This is my now page which represents what I’ve been up to in the last year.
It’s now 7 months in since I started coding exclusively with Claude Code. Manual coding for me is over. I can’t believe it. If someone would have told me that coding would be automated in my lifetime to any degree I would not have believed it yet here we are. I have not written a single line of code manually since Christmas 2025. I uninstalled my IDE and have started creating new tools for the age of AI. And I was one that loved programming. I would watch programming talks on YouTube for fun and study LISP in my free time.
For the first few months I was at awe of how fast I could build things. For example I built an entire replacement to QuickBooks for myself in less than 24 hours. I proved it balanced the books the same as QuickBooks and canceled my Quickbooks account. That said, I’ve built so many things so quickly that the magic is starting to fade. I think I’m slowly getting out of the AI honeymoon phase and starting to think about where all this is headed.
Do you even build something? I’ll give you some examples. After I built the QuickBooks clone I realized that the AI can just do the whole job without any software. I could dump my bank transactions CSV and Stripe payments and have Claude ask me what categories things should be in and have it do the entire job. No software is even needed. My dad ran a simple site for his side business on Squarespace. He’s not very technical and could never operate the UI in Squarespace despite it being made for that exact purpose. He called me the other day and said he redid his entire site with Claude and hosted it on Cloudflare + Netlify in an afternoon. The site looks great. It’s literally easier for him to ask Claude for changes than to navigate an ever changing UI. He’s also now serving the site for free. I sometimes build little admin dashboards for my sites and businesses showing unique clicks, sales, downloads, etc. The problem with a dashboard is the functionality is fixed. With AI you can just point it to your data (I use SQLite usually) and have it produce a report for any question you might have about your business.
AI is transforming the software industry in a huge way. This is not another web 3.0. This is real disruption of an entire industry.
I got inspired by a random post about potatoes and listened to the Audio book by Penn Jillette about his weight loss and health journey in his book “Presto!”. It’s honestly the last diet I would ever choose to try because I love meat. I think people that don’t eat meat are weirdos. I’m not really overweight but I would like to eat healthier to live longer and feel better. So far, I’ve been really enjoying the types of meals I’ve made. I’m suprised by how good it tastes and is possibly the easiest diet to stick to that I’ve tried. I’ve lost about 17 lbs in 30 days. I guess I’m a weirdo now.
