    From the authors of "coding is solved": Today, a colleague trying to run Claude Code ran into an issue where it shows the Bun help menu instead [1]. Previously, Claude Code uninstalled itself several times when I used it. [2]

      Those are embarrassing bugs, but they don&#x27;t prove that LLMs of that time couldn&#x27;t be effective overall, and they don&#x27;t mean that the latest LLMs aren&#x27;t generally very good at coding.

        That isn&#x27;t the premise of the article. Prompting the LLM and walking away (which was clearly done here) isn&#x27;t yet (or possibly ever) a reality. That includes LLM review. Preventing this would have been trivial: have people smoke test their changes before pushing.
