The ability to start a Claude Code session in a temporary "config free" mode, similar to how incognito works for chrome, would be a nice feature to make this easy to try out, espec…

I really don't think anyone voting against Trump was doing so with the Straight of Hormuz on mind.

Ha! I'm watching the Astros game and I guess my stream is delayed because this just spoiled a home run. Great job!

I've seriously wondered about merging a home office and home gym into one, and doing sets in between claude working. My usual workout has about 22-30 sets of exercises total and I …
