   I also work at big tech. Claude code is very good and I have not written code by hand in months. These are very messy codebases as well. I have to very much be in the loop and constantly guiding it with clarifying questions but it has made

   The tech industry is so terrible for employees right now, and I can’t wait until the tides shift. Another day, another major layoff from a big, profitable company. I, for one, will not forget how disposable these companies treated their emp

    Thank you. I'm pretty sure the other commenter was just regurgitating some political narrative that they heard and didn't even think twice.

    Its definitely a joke. They were saying it again when the WhatsApp call failed. They were being sarcastic.

    I’m surprised everyone is saying they weren’t sarcastic. They were even being MORE sarcastic about it being the Wi-Fi after the failed WhatsApp call.

    16 USD a month just to block ads seems ridiculous.
