claude cooked

Using Claude so much that your brain becomes cooked, and you now rely on Claude for critical thinking and writing.
"Did you talk to Jess, our senior SWE? She used to be the most knowledgeable person on the team, but once she started using coding agents she got claude cooked. Now she is posting raw output from Claude in Slack and on LinkedIn."

full-brain

Using your brain fully for task, rather than using letting an AI do it for you, or even assist you with it.

In the context of code, it is a strict antonym to vibe-coding. Instead of letting an LLM generate your entire code base, you full-brain the code and write it entirely yourself.
Did you see Cory's homework? Completely AI generated and he still got a 100! I full-brained mine and I got a 67, WTF

Hey, sorry I wasn't able to implement that feature today. I ran out of my AI usage limit, so I had to full-brain the rest of the code.
