This will either result in a lot of people being able to sleep more, or an absolute avalanche of crap is about to be released upon society. A lot of the people I graduated with spent their 20s making powerpoint and excel. There would be people with a master's in engineering getting phone calls at 1am, with an instruction to change the fonts on slide 75, or to slightly modify some calculation. Most of the real decisio…

The global economy has been down the rabbit hole and through the looking glass into the land of the red queen as far as I’ve known. “Now here you see, it takes all the running you can do, to keep in the same place” as she says. I fully believe any slack this creates will get gobbled up in competition in a few years.

At some point, in order to keep share prices from collapsing, we will all accept that actually, creating documents was the point.

The biggest investments will go to those who can create the most documents, we'll innovate on new document types, keep the ball rolling with Mixture of Document architectures. Artificial General Documents are here!

In this case it's relatively simple things like figuring out the correct ffmpeg command to pull frames from a video, which is then documented in the CLAUDE file. Granted, I don't understand the underpinnings of LLMs but I would've understood that things documented in the CLAUDE file help it reduce cognitive complexity and "remember" more easily something relatively simple like that example.

If you keep breaking the site guidelines we will ban you. We've warned you many times, including recently: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44271716.

I don't want to ban you, because you've also posted good things, but we primarily have to moderate based on the bad things people post, and we can't have people attacking others like this.

If you'd please review https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and fix this (properly), we'd appreciate it.

To everyone who has been feeling like their MAX subscription is a waste of money, give GLM 4.5 a try, i use it with claude code daily on the $3 plan and it has been great

I pay $100 a month and wouldn’t hesitate for a millisecond if I needed to pay the $200/mo plan if I hit rate limits.

It’s hard to overstate how much of a productivity shift Claude code has been for shipping major features in our app. And ours is an elixir app. It’s even better with React/NextJS.

I literally won’t be hitting any “I need to hire another programmer to handle this workload” limits any time soon.

It's a one time time investment that most people already have partially and just needs to be transcribed (existing compose/dockerfile)

> It's a one time time investment No, because the software that needs to be installed into them keeps changing (new versions, new packages, etc.) Sysadmin is a job for a reason. And with containers you are a sysadmin for more than one system.

I see, it's rare to interact with someone that hasn't discovered dependency management yet and hasn't made that part of their project. If you did manage to integrate that into your, it would consequently make it a one time time investment, because things are automatically pulled in with the versions specified.

‘…now has access to a server-side container environment’

Headline demonstrates why SWEa don’t have to worry about vive coders eating their lunch. Vibe-coders don’t know what a container is, nor why it would be good for it to be in the context of an environment (what’s an environment?), or be server-side for that matter. Now if there were a course that instructed all this kind of architectural tradecraft that isn’t taught in university CS courses (but bootcamps..?), then adding vibe-coding alongside might pose a concern m, at least till the debugging technical debt comes due. But by then the vibecoder had validated a new market on the back of their v0, so thank them for the fresh revenue streams.

Hi, I believe my current Claude subscription is going to waste. Can I ask what 3$ plan are you referring to?

This one https://z.ai/subscribe

Thank you for the suggestion. I just gave it a try and thoroughly impressed (its actually $6 with $3 being the first month price). It fixed an issue that previous version of sonnet/opus could have fixed (but they cannot anymore due to Anthropic fucking up the models) in a couple of minutes and with minimal guidance.

What is even happening with Anthropic anymore.

It looks like the $3 plan is only a promo price for the 1st month and it's actually $6/mo, or am I missing something?

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.

There must be a term coined for AI degradation... At least with local LLM, it's crap, but it's consistent crap!
