Could be worse! Claude just assumes repos all use git, and will try to run git commands against a Perforce repo unless your CLAUDE.md gives it strict instructions. When the git com…

Why do you think Americans don't grasp it? There are really two groups here: - MAGA who doesn't care what Europe thinks - not-MAGA who are just as shocked and disappointed as every…

Anytime I see "common sense" adjacent to politics, it's a dodge. It's for issues that pander to their base or where they're just getting bribed. If there's a better reason, they'd …

In politics, "common sense" just means that they don't have a real justification. You can just apply it to anything and your base will accept it.

Chili's uses a microwave :)

Today I learned that lots of people think they know how to make a great steak, but give terrible steak-cooking advice.

Claude does, but I've also seen it give a list and then afterwards, it changes its mind and recommends option B or C instead. Really drives home how LLMs don't actually know what t…

Are you saying a George Foreman-style electric countertop panini press makes a "great steak?"

My favorite is when Claude runs a slow process piped to tail only the last few lines, and then the result isn't what it expected, so it needs to rerun the whole thing. Agents need …

Same! Unless I'm doing a filet, I just prefer grilling. Or reverse sear if you don't mind running the oven.

You leave it unseasoned until the end?

Is there any way to prop it up so it doesn't lay flat against the table? I have round foam adhesive dots stuck to the bottom of my current Apple keyboards. It works, but it's an ob…

Same. Feels like the project takes plenty of risks in other ways and should have played it safe with aesthetic design.

I demand Sega Saturn representation in this list!

It sounds like you're saying "easy" and "fulfilling" cannot coexist, and obviously they are in tension, but a Pareto frontier still exists there.

What do Claude's tics look like in your other language? Do they carry over or does each language get its own weird rhetorical flourishes?

I would assume non-native speakers talk to Claude in their own language. Now I'm curious if Claude's weird quirks of speech are unique in each language or if they carry over!

I believe this also partly sprung up because recipes in isolation don't qualify for copyright. The flavor text gives you grounds to sue if a clone of your recipe site pops up somew…

Had to stop reading when the article devolved into Claude spam. "defensible in isolation," "honestly ranked," ugh. Please write your own blog post.

I'm not sure this explains anything? It is the story of one successful marketing campaign in the 90s. Intel's reputation in the 2020s is not what it was then.

We're not talking 55dB peaks--it's a constant 55dB _tone_, and not a pleasant one.

Here: https://www.reddit.com/r/oddlyterrifying/s/RAUfB2WAMD In this case it's a constant 60dB metallic whine. I would be livid if they built this near my home.

I think the real issue is that they have a clean, pretty window with five options and then a "more options" button--which, when clicked, brings up the exact settings pane from Wind…

Is "Intel inside" even a feature? It's not like the other laptop will be lacking a CPU.

Blizzard changed as soon as Morhaime left.
