I followed steve's excellent tutorial about two months ago, and haven't looked back. I have never felt so competent at git (vcs rather) as I do now. jj is so much simpler and easier for me to reason about.

This seems harsh and unfair. You aren’t allowed to stream Netflix through a third party streaming service because then the experience is controlled by the third party and there is no lock in to using Netflix and thus no benefit to the subsidy they give you in the plan.

OpenAI is allowing it as a PR stunt and because they have seemingly unlimited cash they can throw at user growth.

I was similarly shocked when I logged back in a couple months ago for the first time to read some news stuff. Then I kept going back once a day for a month or two and the posts have started to look more normal.

I can see how this would change me unwillingly over time. Good wake up call to delete my throwaway account again.

It looks like tmux sessions don't keep the sprite alive though, so you can't run cc in the background :/

It’s a web standard api and very small weight. Highly recommend.

LLMs should operate on the code's AST when possible, and should be trained on code's AST as well

They could just make mcps dynamically loaded in the same way no?

Still can’t symlink skills from Claude code to codex tho :/

At that point why would I use ChatGPT if it’s just getting paid to show me stuff?

I’d prefer a light field display that can project light so your eyes must focus at a distance to see it. I imagine there is a lot of interest in this with VR displays

I'm not sure this is targeting you, but possibly rather journalistic photos where being able to prove authenticity is important

How is this different from commands? They're automatically invoked? How does claude decide when to use a skill? How specific do I need to write my skill?

It’s shocking to me how little control the democrats seem to have these days over then narrative. I don’t see them in the news giving their spin at all really

They should at a minimum tax these services like goods. They’re mining our attention and extracting insane profits and pay nothing for it.

100%. Europe could suddenly be a leader and the sacrifice is just giving up technologies that are making us sick

It’s not that shared private data is impossible, just that the mechanisms haven’t been fleshed out yet. I expect this type of setup might be difficult to scale?

New comment by kristo in "Claudia – Desktop companion for Claude code"

kristo — Mon, 18 Aug 2025 01:43:46 +0000

This is true for now.

I built some workflows using Claude’s API and now wish I had used a wrapper so I could easily switch to try gpt-5 for the cost savings.
