Their sales strategy is built on their researchers quitting? Like I get the internal tension between biz and engineering but that seems far fetched.

Temu Elon?

More than anything, it depends on the developer using it. In my experience, most are just slop shovelers that don’t read or review what Claude does. Then it falls on the PR reviewer (me) to be an asshole: Did you review your own code? Do you understand what this part over here does? Why did you choose this method versus alternatives?

Unless you tell Claude/Opus otherwise, it’s not going to take the initiative to refactor things, tidy up parts it didn’t touch, or hell, it won’t even spellcheck things. Can you really call it a language model if it outputs misspelled words? Its unit tests are great boilerplate but never comprehensive enough for me.

Claude is the developer that puts zero pride or effort in their work beyond the bare minimum to not get fired.

OP might not be the best example but I have a growing appreciation of holding your temper in check. Self censorship is some acknowledgement that you’re watching a little bit of what you’re saying.

At the same time though, fuck Trump.

More than a phone, I want a good 7-10" Linux tablet. Something like a Samsung Tab S7 but pure Linux, not Android. Full-fat USB-C (video out, etc) with a slim keyboard cover. I seem to have a lot of low-level hacker-y needs while out and about but I don’t want to always carry my laptop.

These days a tablet is a luxury, a phone is a necessity. You can iterate a mobile UI on a tablet slowly. Shooting to replace a phone means you need to hit a much higher bar of quality. It seems like an easier path to adoption.

A Republican proposing a tax on EVs does not deserve the benefit of the doubt. There’s absolutely no reason to go looking for a silver lining or making apologetics.
