nobody could have summarized this situation better than this.
Note from Claude Sonnet 5

A quote-tweet by Chirag Arora of his own earlier joke that engineers are now just condoms between Claude and prod, with a reply from voxium agreeing.

Sad reality but what's even more sad is the fact that we have normalized this to an extent that "writing code by hand" is seen something as abnormal or termed as nerd or geek. And what they " writing code was never the most important part" i mean are you joking , it was the whole thing and problem solving is what we did by writing code.

I have talked to various people much more experienced in this domain than me, not a lot of them like this approach from management, they like AI, but they want humans to still be part of the process, they too are frustrated with this pace and endless pit we are digging for ourselves.

I am done with this shit. It is over. The state of engineering right now is horrible. It has been half a month since I started a new role at a big company. Nobody knows anything here. The specs, code, tests, PRDs, tickets, resolution of those tickets, reports, etc., everything is made by Claude Code. Nobody on my team likes this. They are being forced to ship as much as they can. I have heard multiple times from higher management that pushing code is not a bottleneck, so why are we slow? People are working 12 to 13 hours a day just to press enter. Nobody is reading anything. Humans in corporate are doing nothing on their own. Everyone, literally everyone, from an L1 to an L7 engineer here is doing the same thing. Talk to Claude. There is no sense of victory. Nobody is resolving bugs. In reality, nobody is thinking anymore. Everything is done by LLMs. It is so soul-sucking. I would not mind it, to be honest, if we were at least given the time to check out the code and see what is going where. But no, the goal is to just ship. No matter what happens.

A long tweet by voxium describing a new engineering job at a big company where all specs, code, tickets and reports are produced by Claude Code under management pressure to ship, with no one reading or thinking.
