I am honestly so frustrated with the way Anthropic's outputs are evolving. I just ran into this response, and it's an absolute nightmare of dense, incomprehensible jargon that makes zero sense. It feels like the product is actually regressing rather than improving. Dealing with such unintelligible nonsense is incredibly demoralizing and makes the tool feel much less useful than before.

I’m trying to transition to Claude Code, but I’m struggling to find my rhythm. While my coworkers swear it’s nearly autonomous, my experience hasn't matched that hype at all. I feel stuck in this tedious cycle of generating and iterating because I can't find a proper diff view like Cursor offered. It’s honestly a bit jarring to realize I can't just trust it blindly like they seem to.
