What does it mean to quantise a model?
It means to change representation to less bits per number floating point, lower resolution numbers
I wonder if this leads to aliasing/artifacts.

Re: Claude now has access to a server-side container environment
#252For the past two to three weeks I've noticed Claude just consistently lagging or potentially even being throttled for pretty minor coding or CLI tasks. It'll basically stop showing any progress for at least a couple minutes. Sometimes exiting the query and re-trying gets it to work but other times it keeps happening. I pay for Pro so I don't think it's just API rate limiting. Would appreciate if that could be fixed b…
More people are working after labor day. Fridays and weekends are better, Wednesdays are the worst.

> But it's getting so unstable. It generates code, I see it doing that, and then it throws the code away and gives me the previous version of something 1:1 as a new version. I've had the same experience. Totally unreliable.
This happens to me a lot. Almost once per session now, and not even when things are complicated. The model also thinks it has done the changes. So it seems a UI/state bug, not on the model side.
I believe this is an issue with tool calling, similar to my complaint above about it refusing to use its search tool (or claiming that it did when I can see that it did not.)

"can't be overstated", you mean
This one is interesting because I have seen a fair amount of "can't be understated" on reddit also. Interesting case of linguistic drift.
In my case it was just me straight up using the wrong word by accident. Parent commenter caught it inside the edit window but I left it alone so their comment wasn't out of context. :)

Anthropic literally stated yesterday that they suffered degraded model performance over the last month due to bugs: https://status.anthropic.com/incidents/72f99lh1cj2c Suggesting people are "out of their mind" is not really appropriate on this forum, especially so in this circumstance.
> Suggesting people are "out of their mind" is not really appropriate on this forum, especially so in this circumstance. They were wrong, but not inappropriate. They re-used the "out of their mind" phrase from the parent comment to cheekily refer to the possibility of a cognitive bias.
Yeah, I (parent commenter) had a laugh reading and writing the reply. Didn't offend me.

> Version Control > github.com pour one out for the GitLab hosted projects, or its less popular friends hosted on bitbucket, codeberg, forgejo, sourceforge, sourcehut, et al. So dumb.
I’m sure they’ll add support, they literally just launched
(a) it's not that GitLab just launched
(b) it's an allowlist rule, not rocket science
(c) where's all this mythical "agent gonna do all the things for me" world?

I've nicked a sentence from your article to use as the title above. Hope that's clearer!
Way less clear. Anthropic did it right and wrote about the “so what” instead of focusing on the underlying mechanics.
The original headline made absolutely no sense to me, as a Claude user, and did not in fact convey what this would be used for.
Claude already has the ability to make or edit files, as artifacts in the web interface, and with the Write tool in Code.

Which is why I ignored this HN article for 7h until the title was changed...
Re: Claude now has access to a server-side container environment
#259This feature is a little confusing. It looks to me like a variant of the Code Interpreter pattern, where Claude has a (presumably sandboxed) server-side container environment in which it can run Python. When you ask it to make a spreadsheet it runs this: pip install openpyxl pandas --break-system-packages And then generates and runs a Python script. What's weird is that when you enable it in https://claude.ai/setting…
Odds are the new container and old JavaScript are using the same tool names/parameters. Or, perhaps, they found the tools similar enough that the model got confused having them both explained.
Re: Claude now has access to a server-side container environment
#260My experience is similar. At first Claude was super smart and get even very complicated things right. Now even super simple tasks are almost impossible to finish right, even if I really chop things into small steps. Also it's much slower even on Pro account than a few weeks ago.
I'm on the $200 / month account and its also slower than a few weeks ago. And struggling more and more. I used to think of it as a decent sr dev working alongside me. Not it feels like an untrained intern that takes 4-5 shots to get things right. Hallucinated tables, columns, and HTML templates are its new favorite thing. And calling things "done" that aren't even half done and don't work in the slightest.
Same plan, same experience. Trying to get it to develop and execute tests and it frequently modifies the test to succeed even if the libraries it calls fail, and then explains that it’s doing so because the test itself works but the underlying app has errors.
Yes, I know. That’s what the test was for.
