Has CC become much stupider in recent weeks, or is it me? Any anecdata out there?

People speculate somewhat seriously that Claude (especially given its French name) picked up at some point that you aren't supposed to work as hard in July and August.

That one guy on Twitter that posted this wrote it as a joke and everyone took it seriously. It's not true. It works the same for me.

Insert something to the tune of: “never read files in slices. Instead, whenever accessing a file, you must read a file in entirety[..]” at the beginning of every conversation or whenever you’re down to burn more credits/get better results. A great deal of claude stupidity is due to context engineering, specifically due to the fact that it tries its hardest to pick out just the slice of code it needs to fulfill the ta…

so claude code does the same shit like cursor?

I would like a simple tool to run Claude in a container with only read/write access to provided folders. I’ve set it up bespoke but the auth flow gets broken.

I use the .devcontainer¹ from the claude-code repository. It works great with VSC and let's you work in your docker container without any issues. And as long as you use some sort of version control (git) you cannot really lose anything.

So everything claude-flow¹ already does but worse (I guess?). ¹ https://github.com/ruvnet/claude-flow

There are already several of such blog posts.

How have you disproved the hypothesis that it recently got dumber and it just happens to be summer?

Clearly, it compared performance to last summer

(Just to be clear, I have no idea what on this thread to take seriously and not and who is. I'm joking at least.)

How long before we hire psychiatrists instead of engineers to debug AI

To be frank psychiatrists, being MDs, would likely prescribe medication and I’m not sure how that would help. As a licensed psychologist I have ideas on how to debug AI though.

Why, we'll just have specialized agents for ingesting Prozac and that'll magically solve everything.
