They have had a complete turn around the last 2-3 years. It's snappy and seems like they actually listen to the feedback forms I fill out.
GitHub and GCloud are now the painful platforms for me. Jira/Bitbucket are nice by comparison now (imo). I use all of these daily. I suspect that Google and Microsoft are suffering from internal push to do everything with Ai. It shows when they are shipping slop and having uptime issues.
The software defined storage company croit.io announced it in their Workation in May 2023. AI is just another tool and people have to understand that it's not going away. As a company, you still need people to make use of this tool.
Maybe try forcing it to properly plan ahead, break it down into small steps, and ask you to approve the plan.
Of course add a CLAUDE.md, put clear development guidelines into it, let it verify the git changes he did against this guidelines and of course things like a lint.
It will go off rails, especially after compaction, but you can make it correct mistakes on it's own.
I've never really been bothered that much by writing boilerplate. That said, LLMs might be able to completely solve the more complex issues as well and then you'll only be writing code in your free time.
For AI, you want DAOS storage. It runs in userspace, you can use FUSE and it's the fastest storage on the planet when it comes to bandwidth (see io500).
There are good companies supporting it like croit, and with their software it's easy to manage as well.
While DAOS looks cool, from their roadmap it looks like they still don't have a fault domain larger than a server... Their erasure coding profiles also look pretty thin. I'm ex-Meta, our infra had vastly different availability and reliability requirements but that looks like it'd be painful to support at scale.
As a German family, we opted out of the system to gain back freedom as a family. With regular school, you are bound to external schedules like vacation, when you have to get up,...
We learned, that it's around 1 hour per day to achieve what kids learn during most of the day in regular schools. Doing homeschooling therefore is much more efficient time wise.
in addition, we can train our kids to be self and critical thinking, something that does not exist in regular schools.
There are more reasons to consider, but these are our most important factors.

Small objects are very inefficient in s3. Aggregate them together and form bigger log objects is critical to go from a small system log to a real environment.
