I dont know what really happened here. Maybe his curse word did prompt a block, maybe something else caused the block. But to be honest I've been cursing a lot to Claude Code, im migrating a website from WordPress to NextJS. And regardless of my instructions I copy paste every prompt I send it keeps not listening and assuming css classes & simpliying HTML structure. But when I curse it actually listens, I think cursi…

Use caps. DO NOT DO X. works like a charm on codex.

Caps also didn't work as well as cursing

Meh. I decided shortly after becoming an atheist that one of the worst parts was the notion that there are magic words that can force one to feel certain things and I found that to be the same sort of thinking as saying that a woman’s short skirt “made” you attack her. You’re a fucking adult, you can control your emotions around a little skin or a bad word.

The question is, is it just a word, or is there an emotion underneath? Your last sentence sounds "just" cynical / condescending on its own, but when you add "fucking", it comes across like you're actually angry. And emotional language is the easiest way to make an online discussion go from reasonable, rational and constructive to a digital shouting match. It's no longer about the subject matter, it's about how they m…

Yeah kind of ironic to make a comment about controlling your emotions while cursing at a stranger because you disagreed with their reasonable perspective.

Depends on my task. If it’s complex and my expectation is for Claude to get things wrong the diff preview is helpful.

Even then, I'd wait until it's had a chance to iterate and correct itself in a loop before I'd even consider looking at the output, or I end up babysitting it to prevent it from making mistakes it'd often recognise and fix itself if given the chance.

True. I’ve been strictly in the terminal for weeks and I have a stop hook which commits each iteration after successful rust compilation and frontend typechecks, then I have a small command line tool to quickly review last commit. It’s a pretty good flow!

>Now, one could argue that the repeated use of swear words, even in private, negatively influences one's behavior One could even argue that just having bad thoughts, fantasies or feelings poses a risk to yourself or others. Humankind has been trying to deal with this issue for thousands of years in the most fantastical ways. They're not going to stop trying.

We think in language, words can definitely make you feel emotions. You have not transcended that. This is true for the very comment you replied to which caused you to angrily curse at a stranger.

That is one of the reasons why I think X's Grok, while perhaps not state of the art, is an important option to have. Out of OpenAI, Anthropic, or Google, it is the only provider that I trust not to erroneously flag harmless content. It is also the only provider out of those that permits use for legal adult content. There have been controversies over it, resulting in some people, often of a certain political orientati…

It's also a machine you can pay to generate child porn for you, owned by a guy who thinks this is hilarious and won't turn it off.

While I still object to them having a say in that matter (next thing is; we don’t serve darkies) - that is different. There are hundreds of shops to get that cake from. But Anthropic and “Open”AI especially are firing on all bullshit cylinders to convince the world that they are responsible, trustable, but also that they alone can do frontier-level AI, and they don’t like sharing anything. You don’t get to both inser…

The Catholic Church has been doing this for hundreds of years. I'm sure it'll eventually backfire on them, but I doubt any of us will still be alive for that.

The Catholic Church has been doing what exactly for hundreds of years? Can’t wait to hear it.

Incorrect on all claims.

They tightened safety measures to prevent editing of images of real people into revealing clothing. It is factually incorrect that you "can pay to generate CP".

Musk has not described CSAM as "hilarious". In fact he stated that he was not aware of any naked underage images being generated by Grok, and that xAI would fix the bug immediately if such content was discovered.

Earlier statements by xAI also emphasized a zero tolerance policy, removing content, taking actions against accounts, reporting to law enforcement and cooperation with authorities.

I suspect you just post these slanderous claims anyway, despite knowing that they are incorrect.

Similar thing happened to me back in November 19 shortly after GitHub outage (which sent CC into repeated requests and time outs to GitHub) while beta testing Claude Code Web. Banned and appeal declined without any real explanation to what happened, other than saying "violation of ToS" which can be basically anything, except there was really nothing to trigger that, other than using their most of the free credits the…

Honestly its kind of horrifying that if "Frontier" LLM usage were to become as required as some people think just to operate as a knowledge worker, someone could basically be cast out of the workforce entirely through being access-banned by a very small group of companies. Luckily, I happen to think that eventually all of the commercial models are going to have their lunch eaten by locally run "open" LLMs which shoul…

A new phobia freshly born.

I've used the Anthropic models mostly through Openrouter using aider. With so much buzz around Claude Code I wantes to try it out and thought that a subscription might be more cost efficient for me. I was kinda disappointed by how quickly I hit the quota limit. Claude Code gives me a lot more freedom than what aider can do, on the other side I have the feeling that pure coding tasks work better through aider or Roo C…

Being in the same boat as you I switched to OpenCode with z.ai GLM 4.7 Pro plan and it's quite ok. Not as smart as Opus but smart enough for my needs, and the pricing is unbeatable

I've also see OpenCode around, but have yet to try it. I wonder how it compares to Roo Code
