> I’m curious about how you landed “git gud; prompt better” and not “maybe the domain I work in is a better fit for LLM code”.
1. Personal experience. Lazy prompting vs careful prompting.
2. They're coincidentally good at things I'm good at, and shit at things I don't understand.
3. Following from 2, when used by somebody who does understand a problem space which I do not, they easily succeed. That dog vibe coding games succeeded in getting claude to write games because his master knew a thing or two about it. I on the other hand have no game Dev experience, even almost no hobby experience with games specifically, so I struggle to get any game code that even remotely works.
Irrespective of the domain you specifically listed in 3 (game dev is, believe it or not, one of the “more complex” domains), you have completely failed to miss the point.

This may well be! In the perfect world this would be balanced with the knowledge that maybe “the things you’re good at” are objectively* easier than “things you don’t understand”. Speaking for myself, I’m proficient in many more easy things than hard things.
*inasmuch as anything can be “objectively” easier
