Think bigger, think on another level of abstraction. This is like going from punch cards to C.

When my mom told me to pace myself, it usually meant that I was going too slow.

This term is quite ambiguous. Did Dario mean that they need to go faster while making it sounds like they will slow down???

I think as far as the maybe more important weekly allotment Max 5 is 10x Pro and Max 20 is 20x Pro. For the 5 hour window it is as the names would suggest though.

This has been a thing way before AI. Anyone remembers Yo, the single button social media app that raised $1M in 2014?

I have a service that relies on NanoBanana Pro, but the availability has been so atrocious that we just might go back to OpenAI.

I have Ghostty 1.2.3 and it STILL does not have cmd+F find.
Re:Ghostty – Terminal Emulator on Sunday March 01, 2026 @03:40PM (#47210438)
I started using it a few days ago and then I need to find something in the terminal. But....there is no find! Why? Can you guys add it? This is such a basic and critical feature that I may have to just go back to...just about anything else.

Re:Everyone in Seattle hates AI on Wednesday December 03, 2025 @08:59PM (#46142881)
Yes, this rings true, it took me over a month to actually get to at least 1x of my usual productivity with Claude Code. There is a ton of setup and ton of things to learn and try to see what works. What to watch out for and how to babysit it so it doesn't go off the rails (quite heavy handed approach works best for me). It's kind of like a shitty, but very fast and very knowledgable junior developer. At this moment it still maybe isn't "worth it" for a lot of devs if productivity (and developer ergonomics) is the only goal, but it is clear to me that this is where the industry is heading and I think every dev will eventually have to get on board. These tools really just started to be somewhat decent this year. I'm 100% sure that in a year or two it will be the default for everyone in a way that you simply won't be able to compete without it at all. It would be like using a shovel instead of an excavator. Remember, right now is the worst it'll ever be.
Re:Claudia – Desktop companion for Claude code on Sunday August 17, 2025 @08:44PM (#44936249)
Well, my project is not using GitHub. Why does it need GitHub access?
Re:Claudia – Desktop companion for Claude code on Sunday August 17, 2025 @08:10PM (#44936054)
The idea here is an IDE for Claude Code specifically. is most likely the strongest coding agent right now, but not everyone loves the command line only interface. So I totally get it.
Re:Claudia – Desktop companion for Claude code on Sunday August 17, 2025 @08:08PM (#44936047)
So I tried it for a hot minute a few weeks ago, but uninstalled promptly once it looked like it just cannot handle pasted images very well at all. It would paste it as huge Base64 string right in there and completely lock up the UI on my MacBook Pro M3 Max. Has that been fixed? I'm really looking for a good IDE (or something better than just a terminal) for Claude Code, but I was left disappointed by Claudia...
Re:Claude Sonnet 4 now supports 1M tokens of context on Tuesday August 12, 2025 @07:44PM (#44883079)
Why not build this as an MCP so that people can plug it into their favorite platform?

Super Easy Improvement: add thousands separator. It's easy to mistake 1,500,000 BC with 150,000 BC.

Also zoom in/out would be super useful!

Great idea though!

Haven't heard of docs-mcp-server, but there is the very popular Context7 with 23k Github stars and more active development:

Re:6 Weeks of Claude Code on Saturday August 02, 2025 @05:38PM (#44771792)
These tools and LLMs differ in quality, for me Claude Code with Claude 4 was the first tool that worked well enough. I tried Cursor before, it's been a 6+ months ago though, but I wasn't very impressed.
Re:6 Weeks of Claude Code on Saturday August 02, 2025 @05:35PM (#44771762)
It's our own SaaS we're trying to launch with my partner. So no work-related issues.
Re:6 Weeks of Claude Code on Saturday August 02, 2025 @05:29PM (#44771712)
Yeah, Github Copilot just didn't work for me at all. The completions are OK and I actually still use it for that but the agent part is completely useless. Claude Code is in another league.
Re:6 Weeks of Claude Code on Saturday August 02, 2025 @05:26PM (#44771682)
I'm recently unemployed after 20 continuous years in the industry, trying to launch a SaaS, so yes, paying for it myself.
Re:6 Weeks of Claude Code on Saturday August 02, 2025 @04:18PM (#44771036)
Just a few months ago I couldn't imagine paying more than $20/mo for any kind of subscription, but here I am paying $200/mo for the Max 20 plan!

Similarly amazed as an experienced dev with 20 YoE (and a fellow Slovak, although US based). The other tools, while helpful, were just not "there" and they were often simply more trouble than they were worth producing a lot of useless garbage. Claude Code is clearly on another level, yes it needs A LOT of handholding; my MO is do Plan Mode until I'm 100% sure it understands the reqs and the planned code changes are reasonable, then let it work, and finally code review what it did (after it auto-fixes things like compiler errors, unit test failures and linting issues). It's kind of like a junior engineer that is a little bit daft but very knowledgeable but works super, super fast and doesn't talk back :)

It is definitely the future, what can I say? This is a clear direction where software development is heading.

Re:“No tax on tips” is an industry plant on Thursday July 31, 2025 @07:36PM (#44751434)
California doesn't have a special minimum wage for tipped professions? When I was waiting tables a long time ago I think my pay was $1.95 an hour. It was usually just enough to cover tax on tips (the ones we admitted).
This is for kids.
With 48GB MAcBook Pro M3 I'm probably out of luck, right?
Re:Google AI Ultra on Tuesday May 20, 2025 @04:10PM (#44045413)
ChatGPT is insanely subsidized. The $20/month sub is such a great value. Just the image gen is about $0.25 a pop through the API. That's 80 image generations for $20.
