Is it really that bad of an idea to experiment, put things out into public, and see what works and what sticks? They haven't abandoned agent-browser and portless, which came out of…

I had claude write itself a post-message hook that regex's the message for any variant of "You're right" and launch a full-screen transparent confetti effect.

Yeah, as someone with strict export compliance concerns which forces us to use Bedrock because its exclusively us-based inference in our AWS account, this does nothing for me. Fran…

Claude Code uses Bun. Anthropic acquired Bun in December. Bun is an alternative node runtime.

We're inventing stumbleupon from first principles.

You can only ctrl+o the most recent response, and its a lot worse than knowing the # of lines read or the pattern grepped, which are useful because it can tell you what the agent i…

WPF was full of footguns and rigid organization to alleviate said footguns. MVVM (Model, View, Viewmodel) architecture was so much boilerplate and toil to work with. It feels like …

Models each have their own, often competing, quirks on how they utilize AGENTS.md and CLAUDE.md. It's very likely a CLAUDE.md written for use with Claude Code utilizes prompting te…

I recently watched the Jon Bois documentary "Fool Time" which relates the story of the men involved in the development of telegraph lines to the 90s sitcom Home Improvement. It's a…

The schemas for Amazon and Walmart's product information are absolutely bonkers and constantly missing features that they demand be provided. Here's the XML Schema Definition for "…

DO-178c is not a coding standard, it's a process standard. Projects following DO-178c processes would adopt a coding standard as a part of the process, reviewing software deliverab…

If you're going to use claude to help you respond to feedback the least you can do is restate this in your own words. Parent commenter deserves the respect of corresponding with a …

One big use-case is that claude code with sonnet 4.5 will delegate into the cheaper model (configurable) more specific, contextful tasks, and spin up 1-3 sub-agents to do so. This …

Any grounding in medical truth/ is anything sourced to legitimate references or is this entirely pulled from the model's general training of human anatomy?

Why would you bloat the (already crowded) context window with 27 tools instead of the 2 simplest ones: Save Memory & Search Memory? Or even just search, handling the save process t…
