For someone interested in this topic and happens to pass by, I can highly recommend a visit to Grimeton Radio Station[1], Sweden, which is still operational.

Coding agent that seems to beat Claude Code on SWE-bench at half the cost.

8/15 on SWE-bench Verified vs Claude Code's 5/15, ~$0.06/instance vs ~$0.12. Small sample, single repo, lots of caveats. But the direction feels right. Event-sourced reducer, no framework deps beyond the Anthropic SDK.

One could try:

> export CLAUDE_AUTOCOMPACT_PCT_OVERRIDE=50

Which will have Claude Code auto compact at ~500k window size.

One could argue that subscription based inference might differ from per-token billed API usage.

Not really.

> Z-mode means the front and rear wings are closed which generates more downforce for the corners. In X-mode, the drivers can open the flaps which will reduce drag and increase speed.

Clearly, it just leaked the election results from the wrong branch of the wavefunction.

Great, thanks. This is already in my minimum requirements.

Basically I want to build it with focus on speed and work efficiency from start. To not bias myself too much, I will refrain from doing too much market research. First of all I'm building this for myself, and I'm guessing it might translate into at least a tiny market share.

I'm working on a desktop-based, performance- and privacy-first note-taking app that lets you quickly capture notes from any selected text using hotkeys.

I'm curious: what are your must-haves in a note-taking application?

Interesting. Time to create that Pomodoro app I've always wanted to do.

Show HN: I had Claude 3 Opus create a novel physics research paper from scratch [pdf]

entrep — Wed, 06 Mar 2024 00:48:31 +0000

I started by asking what Einstein did not know, but we know today. Then asking Claude to act as Einstein and come up with a novel theory, based on this output. Then, iterating for several hours: outlining, writing chapters, improving, acting as a professor to review, acting on this feedback and adding citations. I know nothing about the math presented here.

This could possibly be attributed to survival bias. I.e. the individuals are more prone to post their results only after a successful attempt.
