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.

Got absolutely read to filth: > You've spent more time explaining why Go's error handling is bad than Go developers have spent actually handling errors. > Your relationship with programming languages is like a dating show - you keep finding flaws in all of them but can't commit to just one. > If error handling were a religion, you'd be its most zealous missionary, converting the unchecked one exception at a time.

> You've spent more time explaining why Go's error handling is bad than Go developers have spent actually handling errors.

That is absolutely hilarious. Really well done by everyone who made that line possible.

Thanks! We all dogfood Claude every day to do our own work here, and solving our own pain points is more exciting to us than abstract benchmarks. Getting things done require a lot of booksmarts, but also a lot of "street smarts" - knowing when to answer quickly, when to double back, etc

Could you tell us a bit about the coding tools you use and how you go about interacting with Claude?

We find that Claude is really good at test driven development, so we often ask Claude to write tests first and then ask Claude to iterate against the tests

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

that's because stacks/apis/ecosystems are super complicated and require lots of reading/searching to figure out how make things happen. Now this time will be reduced dramatically and devs time will shift on more novel things.

if Claude Code offers a better experience, users will rapidly move from cursor to Claude Code. Claude is for Code: https://medium.com/thoughts-on-machine-learning/claude-is-fo...

(1) That's a big if. It requires building a team specialized in delivering what Cursor has already delivered which is no small task. There are probably only a handful of engineers on the planet that have or can be incentivized to develop the product intuition the Cursor founders have developed in the market already. And even then; I'm an aspiring engineer / PM at Anthropic. Why would I choose to spend all of my creat…

There are several AIDEs out there, and based on working with Cursor, VS Code, and Windsurf there doesn't seem to be much of a difference (although I like Windsurf best). What moat does Cursor have?

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.

Thank you for the update!

I recently attempted to use the Google Drive integration but didn't follow through with connecting because Claude wanted access to my entire Google Drive. I understand this simplifies the user experience and reduced time to ship, but is there anyway the team can add "reduce the access scope of Google Drive integration" to your backlog. Thank you!

Also, I just caught the new Github integration. Awesome.

LMFAO so good. Humor seems on point
