Cool. Amazing to see what AI (Claude Code?) can do when the operator is an expert. It's like working as a lead engineer with a team. I never touched Claude code so far and am hesitant to give this tool direct access to my machine. I made some good experience with Google AiStudio when implementing my compilers and oberon system migration this year (see e.g. https://github.com/rochus-keller/oberonsystem3native/); it's fascinating that you can give it a bunch of sources with an error description and there is a very good chance that it points to the bug.
In Show HN: An ObjC-like compiler for Mac ARM, x86_64(Linux, Win), WASM, & others
My migration from the Oberon System 3 to the Raspberry Pi 2 and 3 comes at just the right time as it seems (see https://github.com/rochus-keller/OberonSystem3Native/release...). There is also a stand-alone version of the compiler that runs on all standard systems (see https://github.com/rochus-keller/op2/). Maybe the company will extend the availability of the Model 2b for a few more years and release versions with less RAM (<= 500 MB)?
In DRAM pricing is killing the hobbyist SBC market
