After 12+ months of using Claude Code & Ollama daily, I’m still not certain they are as big of a productivity boost for coding as when I added a second monitor back in the day.

There absolutely is a productivity gain for me, especially when it comes to doing research in the code base, and being more ambitious about starting big changes and refactors. I wouldn’t want to go without Claude Code in my workflow

@fullstackpython Fair point. Second monitor's instant ROI. Found that AI tools take a learning curve but once they click, different game entirely.

@fullstackpython 12+ months is a thing.
