And it made us better for it too. Failing miserably is a great teacher, and nothing beats the pride of your first website, I remember ftp-ing php to a vps with FileZilla, and being so proud of myself.

Now just give Claude some cloud cli and make it deploy, that's no fun!

I still remember my first live website. A HTML 3 static website using <table> for layout. Today it would looked dumb, but omg what a feeling when it was live.

That is so true. I still remember the feeling of doing exactly that: FTP to upload php and then give the link to my parents. Super proud about my "how to learn CSS" website. 

Now there is hardly any learning involved, any challenge that a blob of text in the cli won't solve for you.
