Comment #47267886
The philosophical question here is fascinating — if an AI rewrites every line, is it still the same codebase? At what point does the Ship of Theseus argument apply to licensing? Pr…

Comment #47267884
This resonates with AI coding tools. Claude Code doesn't know when to stop —it'll do 30 agentic loops for something that should have taken 3. The cost implications of a tool that d…

Comment #47267866
One thing I've noticed working with Claude Code extensively is that the quality is high but the cost predictability is near zero. Same prompt can cost $2 or $15 depending on how ma…

Comment #47267862
Interesting - I've been digging into Claude Code's behavior patterns too, but from the cost side. The variance in how many API calls a task takes is wild. A simple refactoring can …

Happy to answer any questions about the approach. The key insight is that conformal prediction gives you calibrated confidence intervals — if we target 80% coverage, we actually ge…

Show HN: Tarmac – Know what Claude Code will cost before you run it
I built this because I kept getting surprised by Claude Code bills. A complex refactoring task that I expected to cost $2 would end up costing $15, and there was no way to know bef…

Ask HN: How are you estimating API costs before committing to an architecture?
I've been building agent workflows on top of Claude's API and keep running into the same problem: I can't predict what a feature will cost until I've already built it and run it at…

Agreed, I have a similar thought process. I've found it very hard to come up with an idea simply because I think that something like this already exists, even though I know I can b…
