Why you should be OBSESSED with Claude Code
I have 5-10 instances of Claude Code running across multiple machines at all times. I've spent tens of thousands on tokens. I'm fully addicted, and I think that's actually a good thing.
In this video, I break down why developers like me can't put this stuff down, the real reasons other developers hate it, and what it all signals about where software engineering is headed.
It's not really about the code.
