It’s so annoying that this is true. Claude code or just the generally the fast loop agent models are somewhere between playing music and playing video games and smoking crack, as far as just sheer addictive power.
the feedback loop is so tight that you can’t even get up to pee or eat and if you find any space in your loop you can just add another agent. This must be how people get addicted to a plate spinning
same tbh. since the start of December I've had a legitimately harmful and destabilizing Claude Code addiction. it's like the most fun video game I've ever played, but also a creative pursuit at the same time. it's insane https://t.co/xaX3lPPpNk
