I feel like our industry goes through these phases where there's an obvious thought leader that everyone's copying because they are revolutionary.

Like Rails/DHH was one phase, Git/GitHub another.

And right now it's kinda Claude Code. But they're so obviously really bad at development that it feels like a MLM scam.

I'm just describing the feeling I'm getting, perhaps badly. I use Claude, I recommended Claude for the company I worked at. But by god they're bloody awful at development.

It feels like the point where someone else steps in with a rock solid, dependable, competitor and then everyone forgets Claude Code ever existed.
