Looking at the transformer as a homoiconic machine makes reading and writing tokens much easier. In the same time, I can feel how it is affecting my thinking.

Wow. I have spent thousands of hours driving Claude Code and building a serious and large product. This post is one of the most underrated things I’ve read on HN in some time. I agree with everything the author says to do that I’ve tried and I will try all the other stuff. Thanks to the author for this amazing guide. Those who’ve discovered it here and elsewhere - count yourselves lucky!
