@Yampeleg Sonnet 4.5 and Sonnet 4.6 are the same price. Why not use Sonnet 4.6?

Current stack: - Pi for everything. - GPT-5.4 for everything code. - Gemini-3.1 for design/brainstorming. - Sonnet 4.5-no-thinking for openclaw. - GLM-5 for parallel swarms. - Opus 4.6 for everything else. Currently Testing: Minimax-2.7.

Big shout out to @paulo_kombucha and masko.ai for the Mascot creator :)

I've come to really enjoy my little "Mana: Claude Code Companion" utility. Built for MacOS, it floats on top of your windows and reacts to Claude Code and opencode activity via hooks. Open sourced here: github.com/dep/mana-claud…

@roeymiterany @milesdeutscher @bcherny thank you. this trend of posting images containing loads of text is super annoying

Extracted content. Here you go 🤘 ### 1. Plan Node Default - Enter plan mode for ANY non-trivial task (3+ steps or architectural decisions) - If something goes sideways, STOP and re-plan immediately - don't keep pushing - Use plan mode for verification steps, not just building - Write detailed specs upfront to reduce ambiguity --- ### 2. Subagent Strategy - Use subagents liberally to keep main context window clean - Offload research, exploration, and parallel analysis to subagents - For complex problems, throw more compute at it via subagents - One task per subagent for focused execution --- ### 3. Self-Improvement Loop - After ANY correction from the user: update `tasks/lessons.md` with the pattern - Write rules for yourself that prevent the same mistake - Ruthlessly iterate on these lessons until mistake rate drops - Review lessons at session start for relevant project --- ### 4. Verification Before Done - Never mark a task complete without proving it works - Diff behavior between main and your changes when relevant - Ask yourself: "Would a staff engineer approve this?" - Run tests, check logs, demonstrate correctness --- ### 5. Demand Elegance (Balanced) - For non-trivial changes: pause and ask "is there a more elegant way?" - If a fix feels hacky: "Knowing everything I know now, implement the elegant solution" - Skip this for simple, obvious fixes - don't over-engineer - Challenge your own work before presenting it --- ### 6. Autonomous Bug Fixing - When given a bug report: just fix it. Don't ask for hand-holding - Point at logs, errors, failing tests - then resolve them - Zero context switching required from the user - Go fix failing CI tests without being told how --- ## Task Management 1. **Plan First**: Write plan to `tasks/todo.md` with checkable items 2. **Verify Plan**: Check in before starting implementation 3. **Track Progress**: Mark items complete as you go 4. **Explain Changes**: High-level summary at each step 5. **Document Results**: Add review section to `tasks/todo.md` 6. **Capture Lessons**: Update `tasks/lessons.md` after corrections --- ## Core Principles - **Simplicity First**: Make every change as simple as possible. Impact minimal code - **No Laziness**: Find root causes. No temporary fixes. Senior developer standards

The guy who created Claude Code ( @bcherny ) recently leaked how his team uses Claude. One CLAUDE.md that you drop into your project. Inside: past errors, conventions, rules - Claude reads it every session. Boris uses this every day at Anthropic:

@WalkaboutMG One of the best yet. Well done.

@andreifilip96 @sashank_ps @thekitze I've enabled that and still don't see them 😭

@sashank_ps @thekitze Go to chrome://flags and then search for Vertical tabs

latest stable chrome has vertical and pinned tabs it's time for the final 3 users to abandon The Jira Browser Of New York™️

@corywilkerson @Cloudflare Really good to hear man <3

🍊 It's been 90 days for me at @Cloudflare ... 👇 Here's what has surprised me • There's very little ceremony or overhead when it comes to shipping, everyone is here to build • Cloudflare is extremely high agency — there's alignment but it's just enough and most of it exists to unblock folks • Management is very technical up and down the hierarchy, every leader / manager here talks in specifics • Executive tier is extremely engaged, in various channels, very responsive, knows the details • Startup mentality is pervasive; I thought we'd slow down after the Replicate acquisition but we've sped up 👇 Here's what I love • Community. Reminds me a lot of my favorite parts of GitHub. Folks here are superfans of one another's work. They want to meet & hang and we're collectively excited when someone new joins the club. • The primitives that we get to build on are excellent -- all built to be distributed at massive scale by default • Hardware! We source and build our own hardware! • We dogfood everything, you build "on platform", you have good stat sig day one! • Innovation is funded everywhere -- "what if we built this on " is just another day at the shop • We have some folks around that seem to think different/understand the internet in ways that I don't think is all that common 👇 Here's why I'm long Cloudflare • Tenure at Cloudflare is remarkably long as is the % of folks who have boomeranged back, both very bullish signals • It's a sleeper hit in the developer platform space, yes WAF and yes Cloudflare One are big businesses but we are just getting started & we are cooking in developer platform • Every team I talk to has something in the works that they're extremely excited to ship and then another thing right behind that • When I ping folks in my network to talk about Cloudflare, they are immediately responsive • The product has a lot of rough edges -- folks know, they're working on it -- it only gets better from here But don't just take it from me! I asked three colleagues what their favorite things were, here's what I got. • "The way Cloudflare empowers engineers at every level of the org to have huge impact" • "You can basically work on anything at cf, talented engineers, infra moat so its not just software, cool research and innovation that you don't really get anywhere else" • "Cloudflare has a pretty unique tech stack with a really powerful infrastructure. We're working on some really innovative things that no one else is doing. There is a lot to do -- pretty much anyone can see something needs to be done and go do it." All of that said -- I might be dm-ing some of you soon to work on some really challenging MLE stuff here at Cloudflare soon. Answer me if this sounds like your kind of thing 😜

@yiliush Are you rolling your own Obsidian basically?

Coming together pretty well

@paulo_kombucha I had a few generations fail or render a static image for the video. Would it be possible to be refunded some credits to account for those?

@dep Cool, if you need any help, let me know

My new app is live! Introducing masco.dev, a new way to build your own mascot, powered by VideoBGRemover I’m also using it for my own product marketing, and I made some cool animations and logos with it

@paulo_kombucha Ok, thanks!

@dep You export the video with hevc .mov. It is already possible with Masko and then you can use it on MacOS. It is always a bit tricky to use and depends on the platform. In a MacOS, use AVPlayer configured for transparency

@latentsauce "Note: This is not an officially supported Google product." So probably not.

is google becoming... an ai native company?

@paulo_kombucha Thanks! I love it!

@paulo_kombucha I switched things up and everything seems ok now!

@dep Yes I know it is sometime tricky, other model have less issues. Try a three seconds animation

@paulo_kombucha Weird! it's just an anime cartoon waving. Rated PG at worst?

@dep The animation got blocked by content moderation by the video model

@paulo_kombucha Yayyy

@dep This is exactly what it will be!

I got tired of switching tabs, finding the right terminal, and checking if Claude Code needs me So I made a mascot that watches Claude Code for me

@benjitaylor Fwiw my colleague was seeing some unusual numbers (all time being less than monthly)

Readout 0.0.8 is live: new session transcript search tab, new tool usage tab, skill and agent customisation (add/edit/remove), cost projections, session handoffs, sidebar customisation, and most importantly, a cute new splash screen. → readout.org

@latentsauce @lassvestergaard that worked ty

@dep @lassvestergaard use xattr

Why does ghostty now have a cool settings window like this? 👀 this is termy.run btw 😙 #ghostty #terminal
