Anthropic doubling down on code makes sense, that has been their strong suit compared to all other models Curious how their Devin competitor will pan out given Devin's challenges

It's their strong suit no doubt, but sometimes I wish the chat would not be so eager to code. It often throws code at me when I just want a conceptual or high level answer. So often that I routinely tell it not to.

I get this as well, to the point where I created a specific project for brainstorming without code — asking for concepts, patterns, architectural ideas without any code samples. One issue I find is that sometimes I get better answers without using projects, but I’m not sure if that’s everyone experience.

Hi everyone! Boris from the Claude Code team here. @eschluntz, @catherinewu, @wolffiex, @bdr and I will be around for the next hour or so and we'll do our best to answer your questions about the product.

I'm in the middle of a particularly nasty refactor of some legacy React component code (hasn't been touched in 6 years, old class based pattern, tons of methods, why, oh, why did we do XYZ) at work and have been using Aider for the last few days and have been hitting a wall. I've been digging through Aider's source code on Github to pull out prompts and try to write my own little helper script. So, perfect timing on…

Hey thanks so much! <3

This AI race is happening so fast. Seems like it to me anyway. As a software developer/engineer I am worried about my job prospects.. time will tell. I am wondering what will happen to the west coast housing bubbles once software engineers lose their high price tags. I guess the next wave of knowledge workers will move in and take their place?

How many novel things does a developer do at work as a percentage of their time?

Hi Boris,

Would it be possible to bring back sonnet 2024 June?

That model was the most attentive.

Because we lost that model this release a value loss for me personally.

You can get your HN profile analyzed by it and it's pretty funny :) https://hn-wrapped.kadoa.com/ I'm using this to test the humor of new models.

Seems broken? Getting

Hi Boris, love working with Claude! I do have a question—is there a plan to have Claude 3.5 Sonnet (or even 3.7!) made available on ca-central-1 for Amazon Bedrock anytime soon? My company is based in Canada and we deal with customer information that is required to stay within Canada, and the most recent model from Anthropic we have available to us is Claude 3.

I wouldn't be surprised if people would continue to deny the actual intelligence of these models even in a scenario where they were able to solve the Riemann hypothesis.

Thanks for this - exciting launch. Do you have examples of cool applications or demos that the HN crowd should check out?

hi! I've been working on demos where I let Claude Code run for hours at a time on a sandboxed project: https://x.com/ErikSchluntz/status/1894104265817284770

TLDR: asking claude to speed up my code once 1.8x'd perf, but putting it in a loop telling it to make it faster for 2 hours led to a 500x speedup!
