They're not lying, they're exaggerating. Obviously coding isn't solved but I don't think the fact that that is an exaggeration is going to save our jobs from becoming agent wranglers sooner or later.

I'm not happy about it but I'm not going to stick my head in the sand and pretend it isn't happening either.

The title is non-telling, the metadata page description is non-telling, no post description. What is this about?

This community's rule 3:

If you’re posting long videos try to add in some form of tldr for those who don’t want to watch videos

Looks like the video itself also has no useful description. Only an unlabeled ad.

Copying the generated AI summary from YouTube from the description section:

The PrimeTime analyzes claims made by Anthropic and Boris regarding the state of modern software development. By examining technical issues with Claude Code, this critique questions the narrative that coding is largely solved, suggesting that the current push toward fully agentic workflows might be misleading and potentially harmful to professional software engineers.

That asterisk looks like Vonnegut’s Breakfast of Champions asshole logo. Coincidence?

Next time I get assigned a bug ticket, I'm gonna comment "largely solved" or "85% solved" and then close the ticket. I guess that's the standard now.
