Re:Official Claude Code extension compromise on Saturday October 31, 2026 @04:41AM (#50314235)
> tampered copy of the Claude Code extension, which we didn’t build or publish

it looks like anthropic folks in this thread are throwing excuses instead of allocating one оr two FTE to make sure this will not happen

im a mac user and i made 3 ultimate substitutes for app switcher, screenshot tool and stickies - battle tested and mature products from my perspective and i do consider them almost ideal.

would i like to share them? maybe, probably, on thing that keeps me from sharing is the lack of shiny packaging which i almost never have time to put in to.

'never' is too much of a strong word
the models are extremely dumb today too, sol 6.1 in particular
well the premise didn't change, they still trust him, so what would mature zuck say?

that would be all technical barriers removed at once in an affordable, expandable and good looking personal server device i guess

Re:Claude Is a Contrarian on Monday September 14, 2026 @01:33PM (#49700738)
i think i could tolerate its annoying artificial personality and even use it only if the results were flawless, aka 'make no mistakes' or in case of claude 'make no stupid mistakes'
they must call them precriminals

totally outside of the scope of this tech website but genuine question: assuming you fixed you heart successfully, would you ever be guiding others to die?
Re:I Dream of Quieter Computing on Sunday August 23, 2026 @03:26AM (#49406741)
yeah all i can see now is this creator wants a bunch of visitors dead, in cursive
Re:Why does Opus 5 feel worse to work with? on Friday August 14, 2026 @02:07PM (#49302471)

Re:Ask HN: What if there was an 8th day of the week? on Wednesday August 05, 2026 @06:39AM (#49180904)
i was being cautious, but yes - 10 hours a day and much much more annoyances to finally achieve the perfect decimal metric system
Re:Ask HN: What if there was an 8th day of the week? on Wednesday August 05, 2026 @04:40AM (#49180148)
optimum number is obviously decimal: 10 days a week, 10 month a year, 20 hours a day
yeah this feels frustrating with claude, a black box inside a black box. good thing they got competitors
