100% Over the years I've amassed hundreds of code boilerplate snippets/templates that I would copy and paste and the modify, and now they're all just sitting in Obsidian gathering dust. Why would I waste my time copying and pasting when I can just have Claude generate me basic ansible playbooks on the spot in 30 seconds.

An idea is to have the AI ingest your templates, it might be useful

Cognitive overload? For me, it’s easier to construct a mental model of the thing than have a full (sometime complex) example which may not necessarily be valid and/or on point. And as I’ve been exploring some foundational ideas of computing, you can do away with a lot of complexity in modern development.
