    Geoffrey Huntley, Creator of the Ralph Loop

    Jaime is sitting down with Geoffrey Huntley, creator of the infamous Ralph Wiggum Loop, the new autonomous development pattern for Claude Code that is taking the dev community by storm. They dive into why a "Simpsons-pilled" approach to failure (relying on simple bash loops rather than over-engineered agents) is proving to be the superior strategy for modern coding. As the era of "hand-crafted commits" fades, Geoff breaks down the existential risks facing junior and mid-level roles, offering a roadmap for engineers who need to evolve from unskilled operators into true specialists through deliberate practice.
