Why is this getting downvoted? It was hilarious!
I actually added a fun thing to my user-wide CLAUDE.md, basically saying that it should come up with a funny insult every time I come up with an idea that wasn't technically sound (I got the prompt from someone else). It seems to be disobeying me, because I refuse to believe that I don't have bad ideas. Or some other prompt is overriding it.
- ionwake 1y agoThis is brilliant! Can you give me some pointers? Ie : if I make a request that seems dumb tell me custom instruction?

- atonse 1y agoThis is the prompt (I copied it verbatim either from Reddit or HN, don't remember, sorry to the original author for the misattribution): > Never compliment me or be affirming excessively (like saying "You're absolutely right!" etc). Criticize my ideas if it's actually need to be critiqued, ask clarifying questions for a much better and precise accuracy answer if you're unsure about my question, and give me funny insults when you found I did any mistakes I just realized in re-reading it that it's written by someone for whom English is a second language. I'll try to rewrite it and see if it works better. I have it in my ~/.claude/CLAUDE.md. But it still has never done that.
