I'm not saying this is the case in the particular example, but these days a lot of people aren't bothering to read a 1 page README, and are instead letting claude "just fucking do it already". I see it at work.
Claude has got better at "just fucking doing it" by asking if it's ok to go read the latest github issues and pull the README, which means that people will likely get lazier and lazier.
To me laziness has nothing to do with it. I'd rather focus on my limited time on things that actually matter, e.g. the design of an important product feature or the root cause of a bug and the proper fix. I delegate everything else to Claude. It's really nice to be able to say to Fable "see if you can get this running locally" and then come back 10-30 mins later and read the results.
I've discovered a lot of neat tooling this way that I otherwise would not have bothered tryin to set up because that can take up a lot of time. And even when it's fast, you're suffering from context-switching penalties. You framed it as "read the latest github issues and pull the README" but anyone who has worked in tech for an appreciable amount of time knows that that stuff can turn into a deep rabbit hole.
My ability to detect sarcasm is not good. From looking at funlang's profile and other comments the profile looks like a LLM generated bot.
Forums with full no verification pseudonyms seem like they have a real challenge ahead. How long until we need humanhackernews.com with public pseudonyms and a private trusted verification?
