I want Claude Code, but for my life.[bd]
Last week I mentioned that Claude Code inserts <system-reminder> a lot. Apparently it also removes old ones from the chat history, so they're only towards the end, on the current task...
Claude Code is an interesting chat-adjacent UX modality. It presents as a chat but it does a ton of things under the covers. It's not just chat, it's a chat...
Someone peeked inside of Claude Code's workings and saw tons of "<system-reminder>" instructions, keeping it convergent and on track. That technique could also be used by prompt inj...
Claude and GPT5 feel good at different kinds of code. Integration hard is a straightforward long slog. It can sometimes be sped up by assigning more enginee...

A mashup I want: Claude Code + Obsidian + UI + multi-player[en]. Strap on a self-improving ecosystem and you get something that could change the world.
All of the coding agents are nothing without Claude. They're just a little wrapper around Claude. But this feels like mainly just an immaturity of the market. We haven't seen the actual LLM-native soft...
The faster you have Claude Code write code, the farther away you get from understanding the code. The harder it is for you to analyze it, fix bugs in it, extend it. There's mor...
...mple, see the Hacker News comments on "Code execution through email: how I used Claude to hack itself" To go mainstream a solution has to be idiot proof. The vulnerability has to be something that everyone on a jury of users would agree...
