OP: [last year][1], I shared how I was using AI day-to-day as an ordinary engineer. This year, I did it again!
It's crazy realizing that Claude Code only started getting big in the last year or so. It feels so different now, with all the new models & tools we have to use. I hope you enjoy!

Cursor was the first coding harness that hit mainstream (was the fastest company to hit $1B ARR). It was also once half of Anthropic's revenue.
On the CLI side Aider had a good CLI product and the only relevant benchmark back in the day.
I guess, its debatable that o1 was the real start- but I think its hard to deny that Claude Code CLI was the first time we had what we now call a coding harness hit the mainstream. And- Sonnet 3.7 was kinda Anthropic's "o1 moment".
God. Opus 4.6 and 5.3-codex feel like ancient history.
