From the outside it seems like these mathematicians are saying “you shouldn’t use ai to solve our most difficult problems because they have no practical value”. Seems ok by me, let’s point all the gpu clusters at things that actually matter

Cool but isn’t everyone already doing this? Surprised this is what I saw at top of HN this morning.

Worst title ever. For once I feel the HN title should NOT match the article.

I uh…still use tmux send-keys. I’ll change as soon as I find a use-case it doesn’t solve. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

You really have to a) use Opus and b) use the frontend-design skill for decent results. https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/blob/main/plugins/...

Are they also going to refund all the extra usage api $$$ people spent in the last month? Also I don’t know how “improving our Code Review tool” is going to improve things going forward, two of the major issues were intentional choices. No

It’s interesting to watch Ant try to ship every value-add product feature they can while they still have the SOTA model for agentic. When an open weights equivalent to Opus 4.5’s agentic capabilities comes out, I expect massive shifts of w

Reality is Ant can supply X tokens and they see demand for 10*X tokens. So they’ll charge whatever the top 10% of users are willing to pay, and slowly degrade the value of the subscriptions until everyone has moved to another supplier or m

I think maybe you are not familiar with what /loop and the Claude cron tools do. https://code.claude.com/docs/en/scheduled-tasks

I was surprised the author didn’t mention Yegge’s list (or maybe I missed it in my skim).

Oh I think you misinterpreted my comment! I am very much a fan of this, wasn't throwing shade. I am just remarking on how my side-project scope today dwarfs my side-project scope of a year or two ago.

Somehow every 15 line shell script I write now turns into a 50kloc bun cli or tui app. Apparently there are many such cases.

They buried the lede. The last half of the article with ways to ground your dev environment to reduce the most common issues should be its own article. (However implementing the proper techniques somewhat obviates the need for CodeRabbit, s

Why would the self-hosted runner fee be per-minute instead of per-job? I don’t get it.

Freaking awesome. You should extend clicking on a link, similar to how this article describes infinite content: https://worksonmymachine.ai/p/solving-amazons-infinite-shelf...

Gotta be better than codex literally writing a python script to edit a file multiple times in a single prompt response.

Building an interactive shell inside their CLI seems like a very odd technical solution. I can’t think of any use case where the same context gathering couldn’t be gleaned by examining the file/system state after the session ended, but

by lherron 11mo ago
Still a toss-up for me which one I use. For deep work Codex (codex-high) is the clear winner, but when you need to knock out something small Claude Code (sonnet) is a workhorse. Also CC tool usage is so much better! Many, many times I’ve s

I would add to the list of the vibe engineer’s tasks: Knowing when the agent has failed and it’s time to roll back. After four or five turns of Claude confidently telling you the feature is done, but things are drifting further off course,

This “article” is clickbait. Controversial title with no substance, asking “why are companies investing heavily in a technology that works for some (limited but valuable) use cases, when they could invest in pure R&D for something that

Progress, but the real unlock will be local MCP/desktop client support. I don't have much interest in exposing all my local MCPs over the internet.

Wow, I thought they would feel some pricing pressure from GPT5 API costs, but they are doubling down on their API being more expensive than everyone else.
27.
by lherron 1y ago
Did I miss the total cost for each run in the article? Can't seem to find it. If Sonnet is more expensive AND more chatty/requires more attempts for the same result, seems like that would favor GPT5 for daily driver.

by lherron 1y ago
Yeah but I still want a general purpose chatbot subscription also. So I’d have to buy Cursor + something else. I guess Cursor makes sense for people who only use LLMs for coding.

by lherron 1y ago
With all the frontier labs competing in this space now, and them letting you use your consumer subscription through the CLI, I don’t understand how the Cursor products will survive. Why pay an extra $X/mo when I can get this functiona

A few years ago the SRE crowd went through a toil automation phase. SWEs are now gaining the tools to do the same.
