Anthropic is back and cementing its place as the creator of the best coding models—bravo! With Claude Code, the goal is clearly to take a slice of Cursor and its competitors' market share. I expected this to happen eventually. The app layer has barely any moat, so any successful app with the potential to generate significant revenue will eventually be absorbed by foundation model companies in their quest for growth a…

I wonder if they will offer competitive request counts against Cursor. Right now, at least for me, the biggest downside to Claude is how fast I blow through the limits (Pro) and hit a wall. At least with Cursor, I can use all "premium" 500 completions and either buy more, or be patient for throttled responses.

Reread the blog post, and I suspect Cursor will remain much more competitive on pricing! No specifics, but likely far exceeding typical Cursor costs for a typical developer. Maybe it's worth it, though? Look forward to trying.

Claude 3.7 Sonnet scored 60.4% on the aider polyglot leaderboard [0], WITHOUT USING THINKING. Tied for 3rd place with o3-mini-high. Sonnet 3.7 has the highest non-thinking score, taking that title from Sonnet 3.5. Aider 0.75.0 is out with support for 3.7 Sonnet [1]. Thinking support and thinking benchmark results coming soon.

> 225 coding exercises from Exercism

Has there been any effort taken to reduce data leakage of this test set? Sounds like these exercises were available on the internet pre-2023, so they'll probably be included in the training data for any modern model, no?

it's been evolutionary for a long time. I fine-tuned a GPT-2 based chat bot that could form complete sentences back in like 2017 It's been so long that I'm not even certain which YEAR I set that up.

Where do you draw the line? If going from forming sentences to achieving medal level success on IMO questions, doing extensive web research on its own and writing entire SaaS apps based on a prompt in under 10 years is just "evolutionary", then it's one heck of an evolution.

It's always been the case that people in to tech see a smooth slope rather than some sort of discontinuity, like you might perceive if you stepped back a bit. That's why you can go laugh at "thing makes a billion dollars even though nerds say it's obvious and incremental" type posts going back 25 years. iPhone is a great one.

So far Claude Code seems very capable, it oneshotted something I couldnt get to work in cursor at all. However its expensive, 5m of work cost ~$1 which.

Likewise, tried a couple basic things and nearly at $1 already. I can see this adding up fast, per the blog post's fair warning below. Coming from Cursor, I'm a bit scared to even try to compare workflows...

Pretty amazing how DeepSeek started the visual reasoning trend, xAI featured it in their latest release, and now Anthropic does the same.

I took DS visual reasoning to be an elegant misdirect from how much slower DS returns your query's output.

I thought my internet cut out the first time I used o1.

I guess it's what sometimes it's called "self RAG", that is, the agent looks inside the files how a human would be to find that's relevant.

As opposed to vector search, or…?

Does it make sense to use vector search for code? It's more for vague texts. In the code relevant parts can be found by exact name match. (in most cases. both methods aren't exclusive)

One thing I would love to have fixed - I type in a prompt, the model produces 90% or even 100% of the answer, and then shows an error that the system is at capacity and can't produce an answer. And then the response that has already been provided is removed! Please just make it where I can still have access to the response that has been provided, even if it is incomplete.

This. Claude team, please fix this!

The UX team would never allow it. You gotta stay minimal and and definitely can't have any acknowledgement that a non-ideal user experience exists.

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.

It seems to have a heavy bias towards my most recent comments? If it were summarizing the last week or so it would be very accurate.

I got "Still defending Java in 2023? I bet you also think cargo shorts are the height of fashion."

I defend Java and cargo shorts in 2025!
