You're holding it wrong. I just spent 14 hours (high on coke) working with Claude to generate an agent orchestration framework that has already increased my output to 20x over just using Copilot. Adapt or you'll be left behind and forever part of the permanent underclass.

That’s nothing I used a Claude code to put together a totally new agent harness model architecture that can cook 30min brownies in only 20mjnutes!

CDDOL is undoubtedly the future, it is just sad seeing all these negative comments. It's like those people don't even know they've been made redundant already.

It's not too late to jump on the Cocaine-Driven Development Orchestrated by LLMs train.

Tomorrow you'll write 20 agent orchestration frameworks in 14 hours!

Amen! I'm pissing blood faster than I can increase my credit card limit for token use, but we'll make it. The 200x (10x from LLM + 20x from orchestration) means that by the end of 2026 we'll all be building $1MM ARR side projects daily.

I would love to subscribe to your newsletter to hear more about this topic.

I built a windmill with Claude. I created a skills.md and followed everything by the book. But now, I have to supply power to keep the windmill running. What am I doing wrong?

You didn't mention the $1M ARR!

Can you share details about this? Do you have a repo?

Doesn't coke come with mania?

Either way, OP is holding it wrong and vague hypebro comments like yours don't help either. Be specific.

Here's an example: I told Claude 4.5 Opus to go through our DB migration files and the ORM model definitions and point out any DB indexes we might be missing based on how the data is being accessed. It did so, ingested all the controllers as well and a short while later presented me with a list of missing indexes, ordered by importance and listing why each index would speed up reads and how to test the gains.

Now, I have no way of knowing how exhaustive the analysis was, but the suggestions it gave were helpful, Claude did not recommend over-indexing, and considered read vs write performance.

The equivalent work would have taken me a day, Claude gave me something helpful in a matter of minutes.

Now, I for one could not handle the information stream of 20 such analyses coming in. I can't even handle 2 large feature PRs in parallel. This is where I ask for more specifics.

Parent comment seems sarcastic

I believe it's in reference to things like this:

Parent comment is a joke I think, but there’s something ironic (Poe’s law?) about it being possibly _not_ a joke

Why go through all migration files if you're looking for missing indices in the present? That doesn't seem to make sense when you could just look at the schema as it stands? Either way, why would this take you a day? How many tables do you have?

There's a parenthetical offset about being high on coke for 14 hours. It's obviously a joke.

Sniped.

For the oblivious: /s

This one is a lot harder to tell because there are some AI bros who claim similar things but are completely serious. Even look at Show HN now: There used to be ~20-40 posts per day but now there are 20 per HOUR.

(Please oh please can we have a Show HN AI. I'm not interested in people's weekend vibe coded app to replace X popular tool. I want to check out cool projects wher people invested their passion and time.)

that's a pretty long time to be on someones cok

the time you are on coke = the time there is coke around to be had :)

It’s Claude Coke

Well, it’ll definitely make you hallucinate!
